7:06 am
presidency, and the vice presidency, is bigger than any of us. >> reporter: today's meeting, a new chapter in an acrimonious feud that dates back to president obama's first term when trump championed the birther conspiracy theory. >> he may not have been born in this country. >> reporter: the president roasting trump at the white house correspondents' dinner soon after when the claims were knocked down. >> that's because he can finally get back to focusing on the issues that matter. like did we make the moon landing. >> reporter: and in the final days before the election, the president worked feverishly to keep trump out of the white house. >> if somebody starts tweeting at 3:00 in the morning because "snl" made fun of you, then you can't handle the nuclear codes. >> reporter: the president's tone now shifting from humor to harmony. >> we all want what's best for this country. that's what i heard in mr.
7:07 am

7:09 am
branch. >> donald trump was the main purveyor of the birther movement. would you like to see an apology at the white house? >> i think that's all past us. the fact is, the president said a lot of things -- i was at that kaernts d correspondents' dinner. said a lot off things about donald trump that was clearly attempting to delegitimatize him. that's politics though. these men recognize now this is about governing and leading the nation and the world. they have a lot more important things to talk about. >> it was all just politics when donald trump was making those comments about the president? >> sure, everything is in the context of politics, matt. doesn't mean he didn't mean those things and wasn't concerned about them. you know the difference when two people are in combat in politics versus when the people have spoken. tuesday night the people spoke, electing donald trump president of the united states. now it is time for both donald and the president to move and turn to a new chapter. >> chairman reince priebus was here yesterday.
7:10 am
he said something he said before, the donald trump he knows, the one behind closed doors, is so vastly different than it the donald trump we have seen from that rally stage. do you agree with that and do you think that's a -- we're about to see some new side of donald trump? >> first off, i've been friends with him for 14 years. so i would say there is a lot of things about him that the public has not yet seen. but i don't think that's unusual for people in public life. i think you hear all the time, whether it was about al gore -- i used to hear that about the vice president. you hear that about president obama and i've been able to have time with him privately, too. people do have different sides. but what will happen during a presidency, i believe, is that you'll get much more of an opportunity to see both sides. >> we saw those protests last night. just a reminder that half this country feel very scared and afraid and upset. what do you think president-elect trump's tone toward them should be? what's his message? what's some outreach he should do? >> he started that outreach
7:11 am
tuesday night. it was a combative or divisive speech. it was a unifying speech and he recognized those folks tuesday night, talked about the people who didn't support him, said i am committed to being president for all americans. that's what he has to do and that's what he did do on tuesday. >> paul ryan says trump has a mandate. even though he didn't win the popular vote, he obviously has the white house, the house and the senate. do republicans have a mandate? >> sure. absolutely. when you control both houses of congress and the white house, you not only have a mandate, matt, you have a huge responsibility because now the republican party is in charge of the federal government and we have an obligation to get things done. >> let me ask you about your personal future either inside or outside of the trump administration. bridgegate trial ended last week, couple of your close associates convicted on those counts. do you think that trial will cast a long shadow on you if you would like a role in the trump administration? >> i think the long shadow was cast well before that. what happened last week with the verdict was they confirmed what
7:12 am
i knew and did in january of 2014 which was back then, i said after 24 hours, it is my view that three people are responsible for what happened there. those three people, after three years of investigation, matt, and the trial, the same three people i fired in january of '14 were the three people who were held responsible by the u.s. attorney's office and that jury. >> so what role do you want in a trump administration? what have you talked about? >> we have the no talked about anything. it's true. . president-elect was absolutely adamant about not discussing the transition before he was elected. >> the reports are he didn't want to jinx it. is that true? >> i think that's part of it. i think the other part is he wanted to remain focused on what he needed to do, which was winning. he said back in may when he gave me the job he said you focus on getting this ready for me and he said we'll talk on election night. so we spoke on election night but we spoke about the transition. >> would you want to be chief of staff? would you want to be -- >> you don't really think --
7:13 am
>> that's called a pregnant pause. >> attorney general? >> you really don't think i'm answering any of these questions, do you? you know me better than that. the answer is i'm not committed to doing anything in a new administration, or not. the bottom line is is that i have a job to do to help get the administration ready. if there's some role for me that i want to do and that the president-elect wants me to do, we've known each other for 14 years. >> like chief of staff? >> maybe it's host of the "today" show, matt. who knows? you've been around here a long time. we'll go over the contract later. >> the one job the president doesn't appoint. >> i understand that but maybe we can work something out. i'm a very nice guy, savannah. we'd have a lot of fun sitting next to each other. >> we'll do a screening interview later. >> good news for me. >> trump's adult children have been a huge part of this campaign. can you see him appointing one of his adult children to either a cabinet post or a senior position within administration? or does he think that's nepot m
7:14 am
nepotism, i'm not going there? >> i haven't spoken to him about that but donald's children who are a huge part of the business intend to run the business. they always turn to him for advice and counsel. but i think their intent from what i've heard from them is they are focused ond running the business because the guy who did run the business has now got a new job. >> donald trump praised hillary clinton in his speech but in the previous weeks he said he was going to lock her up and appoint a prosecutor, special prosecutor. has he dropped that? >> i haven't spoken to him about that. i will tell you they had an enormously gracious conversation with each other on tuesday night. secretary was very gracious to the president-elect and the president-elect has been incredibly gracious to her. politics are over now been people have spoken -- >> people wanted her to be locked up. those are his constituents. >> listen, but the people get to speak through their vote and they voted for donald trump to be the president of the united states. it is now his job -- and i am
7:15 am
confident he will -- bring the country together. >> governor chris christie, do you have an alarm clock? >> yes, i do. >> just saying. it is a part of this job. >> you're going to love halloween here. you're going to love that. [ laughter ] >> you mean i can look stranger? that would be good. looking forward to it. >> thank you, governor. let's go to the other side of the aisle now. what does the transition to a trump white house mean for the democrats who find themselves in their weakest position in washington for eight years. kristen welker has that part of the story. good morning. >> reporter: matt, good morning to you. despite the bitter battle between clinton and trump, democrats and lawmakers more broadly agree that they should work together to help the country come together. but that won't be easy given the history of partisan rancor here in washington. this morning, democrats coming to terms with their new reality. republicans are now firmly in
7:16 am
control of washington winning the white house and hoilding boh houses of congress. >> this is the most incredible political feat i have seen in my lifetime. >> we've been given a temporary lease on power, if you will, and i think we need to use it responsibly. >> reporter: democrats defeated but looking for ways to find common ground. nancy pelosi placed a call to trump yesterday suggesting infrastructure projects are a possible area of agreement saying in a statement we can work together to quickly past a robust jobs bill. senator bernie sanders, clinton's former rival turned top surrogate -- >> our job is to elect hillary clinton -- >> reporter: now softening his tone and vowing to work with trump on policies that help the lives of working families. but sanders also warning to the degree that he pursues racist, sexist, xenophobic and anti-environmental policies, we will vigorously oppose him. democrats are also bracing for a fierce fight ahead over
7:17 am
obamacare. >> real change begins with immediately repealing and replacing the disaster known as obamacare. >> reporter: and the supreme court. trump vowing a more conservative pick thanmak merrick garland, president obama's choice whose chances are now dead. >> it's the supreme court. that's what it's all about. >> reporter: the democrats are also focused on their own future and party stand-outs who may help lead the way. massachusetts senator elizabeth warren who proved to be one of the most effective trump attack dogs. >> he think because he has ha mouthful of tic tacs that he can force himself on any woman within groping distance. >> new jersey senator cory booker whose name was voted as a possible vp pick and a rising star in the party. >> patriotism is love of country. but you can't love your country without loving your countrymen and your countrywomen. >> reporter: the attempts at
7:18 am
unity may be short lived. congressional republicans already vowing to continue their investigations into secretary clinton's private e-mail server. matt? savannah? >> all right, kristen welker. thank you very much. mr. roker's here with a first check of the weather. >> got little chilly stuff to start off in the midsection of the country. we've got some frost and freeze warnings right now stretching from the carolinas all the way into oklahoma. they're going to start to warm up later today but in the meantime, temperatures close to freezing from asheville to fay vetville. good news is the jet stream is way up to the north so we will stay fairly warm. eugene, oregon, temperatures in the 60s. denver, into the 50s and upper 60s. st. louis into the 50s as well. as we get into next week, those warm temperatures stretch from chicago, san antonio, tucson and salt lake city. we'll (timer beeping) she needs our help! ♪ (tea kettle whistling)

gunman who shot and wounded two police officers near pittsburgh overnight. it happened in the town of canonsburg. investigators are now yet revealing the circumstances surrounding those shootings. at least seven people were killed, more than 50 others injured when a tram overturned on wednesday in south london. the 42-year-old driver has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. investigators say the tram appears to have been traveling too fast on a sharp bend. they're also looking into claims that the driver blacked out at the controls. we have talked a lot about trump's upcoming transition to power, but his opponent in the presidential race is now facing a major transition of herself. what does the future hold for hillary clinton and the clinton family? nbc's andrea mitchell has more on that. hi, andrea, good morning. >> good morning, matt. after decades of public service, hillary clinton's dream to become the first woman president shattered. her political career most likely now over. >> reporter: hillary clinton conceding the race to donald

7:41 am
first, congressmen need to take action. while republicans could have trouble getting the 60 votes to get it to the president's desk, a vote to repeal did make it to president obama earlier this year under a special budget procedure that required only a simple majority. he, of course, vetoed the repeal. if it makes it to a president trump, the result would likely be a different story. also on his agenda -- reshaping the supreme court. >> the supreme court, it's what it is all about. >> reporter: file this under "highly likely." with republicans controlling congress, trump's all but assured a more conservative supreme court pick. >> the american people have spoken and president trump will send us a nominee, i assume, early next year. >> reporter: trump's released his list of picks to fill the seat left vacant after the death of justice antonin scalia. among the notable names -- senator mike lee of utah who did not vote for the party's nominee. and what about some of candidate trump's more extreme plans? >> we will build a great wall

along the southern border. >> reporter: his mexican-funded border wall? "unlikely." part of the problem -- the cost. estimates range from $8 billion to $122 billion. and while he says mexico would pay, that country's foreign minister saying yesterday, that's not happening. also unlikely, another campaign pledge. >> donald j. trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states. >> reporter: his temporary proposed muslim ban, unpopular, even among many republicans. candidate trump already signaling he won't take such a ha hardline stance. >> reporter: expect for the president-elect trade to be another issue in those first 100 days. he doesn't always see eye to eye with the rest of his party on that. that's a topic that may or may not come up with president-elect trump and vice president-elect mike pence visit house speaker paul ryan after their trip to the white house this morning. >> hallie jackson at the white

house this morning, thank you. let's bring in nicolle wallace and steve kornacki who at this point need no introducti introduction. nicolle, you've been there. what are these meetings about? the white house is this scene, this is the peaceful transfer of power. there is tons of symbolism. but it is also very personal. >> it is very personal. and there is a lot of talk about when you turn the page, a hard-fought campaign is over. as governor christie has talked about, the night before donald trump's election, president obama was one of the most powerful spokesmen in making the case against trump's candidacy. so everyone is committed to turning the page because the business of governing is so much more grave than the business of campaigning. but these are human beings. they're not robots. >> what nicolle is saying, is you can't unring a bell. some of the things that have been said during the course of this campaign are going to stick around. >> it's interesting, what's happened since the election was called has been so strikingly different than the election
7:44 am
itself. i think that probably is encouraging to everybody because we thought such an unprecedented campaign may be the aftermath would be unprecedented. so far it is going the way it is supposed to go. i think things are going to get interesting when you look at how democrats react. obviously democrats do not like donald trump. at the same time, this is a guy who's taken some positions on issues where he actually could find some democratic help on capitol hill. >> that's interesting. it is a good segue to my question for nicolle. one of the big story lines was how is he remaking the republican party, not just in tone, but also the orthodoxy of the republican party and the policy. so how do you think that all plays out in terms of what he tries to do in 100 days? for example, trade agreements. >> he owes the republican party nothing. he won without the republican establishment behind him. and, frankly, with sort of the republican folks that make their way on to tv shows -- >> but guess who's waiting for him in washington? the republican establishment. >> he really has an opportunity to craft an agenda and pick his
7:45 am
partners. if trade is a place where he finds more enthusiastic support among democrats, he has an opportunity to work with democrats. he put out a list of supreme court justices. there will be issues whether there are natural alliances with the conservative movement in and out of the government. but he is in such a unique position in that he owes this victory to no one other than his small sort of pirate ship of a campaign and his base of support around the country. >> if these protests continue to build, should donald trump say nothing and let the emotion play itself out or should he speak again to the american people? >> i think at some point it is not directly addressing the protests that's his responsibility. but i think the message that he delivered after this election tonally is the message you want the winner in the election to deliver. he was gracious about his opponent. he talked about uniting the country. as long as he continues to deliver a message like that, i think that's what we expect of a president-elect in this period. >> i went to buy something yesterday and i took my money out of my pocket.
7:46 am
look what i found? i found a little piece of paper with the predictions from election eve of when this was going to be called. >> you know what's going about him? he never says "i told you so." >> chuck is not here to defend himself. steve predicted 11:20 at night. >> that was pacific time. >> i forget what i said. >> 1:00 a.m. >> i was closer. >> but if i had asked you, and who is going to win? >> clearly, trump. >> i would not have predicted this outcome. but it is -- you know, i think there is a lot of hand-wringing. i dropped my son off at school yesterday morning. a lot of moms came up to me figuring out how to talk to their kids. i think it is just important to remember that we've sort of been through extraordinary events before. i am a recount survivor. i am a mccain-palin survivor. did i win? did i win the "today" show pool? i'll put this on my wall.

host of the shows we love watching had a mix of sincerity and their own special brand of humor. >> if your child asks the ultimate question -- why do bad things happen to good people -- you finally have the answer. the electoral college. >> of course, this means that early next year trump will be moving into the white house. he will become the first president who moves in and hangs up his own portrait. >> two things happened last night. donald trump got elected president, and my job just got easier for the next four years. >> based on this pattern of me being wrong on everyone of my donald trump predictions, he's probably going to be a great [ bleep ] president. >> so there was another moment in particular that caught our attention when seth meyers got emotional addressing the person who's out there who could still be our nation's first female president. >> the fact is, we don't know who you are but i imagine this moment today will be a defining one for you, one that will make
7:52 am
you work harder and strive farther. and whoever you are, i hope i live to see your inauguration and i hope my mom does, too. she was really excited yesterday. and i was really sad for her. >> one of the viewers respond odd, like so many people, saying i had my daughter watch this. very poignant and touching. seth has been receiving high praise, as you guys know, for his shows during this election. he's going to keep it going. he is one of the best out there. nikki speaks to how i think people felt when he got emotional there. >> tamron, thank you so much. coming up, tom brokaw on the mood of the nation post election and we'll also tell you about the personal milestone

8:16 am
absorb everything around them, then they are always repeating it but they don't understand it. validate their feelings. let them know that they understand. then everybody needs to work towards acceptance and awareness and decide what you want to do about it. >> i think one of the hard things as parents -- i've got three children so we spend a lot of time in my house talking about compromise. when they hear what's going on in this election or just did, there doesn't seem to be a lot of area of compromise. seems to be one end or the other. split down the middle. >> right. sometimes -- and i think obama said it great with all of his sports references in his speech yesterday. there is a winner and a loser. and that's not compromise. this is one of those moments where there is a winner and unfortunately there is a loser and everybody can choose which side they're on. we have to accept that's what it is and figure out how you are going to work within that spectrum. >> a lot of focus is on those who are disappointed and how to talk to your kids about that.
8:17 am
there is also a lesson if you were a supporter because it also shows how to be gracious in victory. >> this is a wonderful lesson in sportsman like conduct. how do we say this is great, i'm so excited, but respect that someone else lost and honor that for them. >> you have to remember, kids are sponges. if you don't think they heard everything -- they heard everything. >> they did. they did. we have to respect that and hear what they have to say. >> what about specific fears? some kids might have been hearing for example about immigration or deportation or hear about terrorism. they hear about racism. there's just all kinds of accusations that have flown back and forth. if you've got older kids, how do you address these issues? >> sure. i've seen it in my practice. yesterday there were a lot of teens of what's going to happen to me, what's going to happen to my friends. it is really sitting with them, talk about it, remind them that you're going to work really lard to protect them. remind them that the government is not just one person and that the aim is to really make america unified and positive and a great place.
8:18 am
that's what we're all going to hope for. >> keep it in perspective. good lessons for everybody. all ages. thank you. let's go over to al and get a check of the weather. >> how about the weekend? take a deep breath and kind of reset and just kind of enjoy. we'll have cooler weather through the great lakes. sunshine through the gulf coast. unseasonably mild through the plains from northern california into the pacific northwest, look for some wet weather. saturday, cooldown in the northeast, new england. great lakes looking gorgeous. lots of sunshine. even down to the gulf, unseasonably warm weather continues in the plains. beautiful weather through the southwest into southern california. sunday -- sunday -- big football day. we've got lots of sunshine in the northeast. some showers along the mid-atlantic coast. heavy rain moves into the pacific northwest and the sunny skies continue again down throughouthwest and s good morning. i'm meteorologist bill henley. a chilly morning, but we've got sunshine, so it's going to be a fast warm-up throughout the day. near 60 in philadelphia and with sunshine, it's going to feel like it's in the low 60s this
8:19 am
afternoon. beautiful sunny skies in the suburbs. 57, the high temperature. in new jersey, 58 degrees. even at the shore, temperatures in the upper 50s today. look at that sunshine. and bright sunshine for the lehigh valley and delaware, too, dry and a little bit of a breeze, just enough to keep us clear during the day. have a great day. >> and that is your latest weather. all right, mr. roker. thank you very much. fresh off covering another historic election, tom brokaw is here to add his unique perspective. we should mention, he's also celebrating a milestone. 50 years h here at nbc. and tom plans to donate all his papers and memorabilia to the library at the university of iowa. that is a cool thing, tom. good morning. nice to see you. >> especially given the fact that i spent one year there and i had a double major. beer and coeds. [ laughter ]. >> but we digress. >> but they didn't let go of me and it was their idea and i am terribly flattered. >> i'll get to that in a second but i want to talk to you about
8:20 am
what's happening at the white house today. we've just been through a lot as a nation with this election. yet i think, shouldn't we all take comfort in what's going to happen at the white house today? >> it is part of the majesty of the american system is that a loser, and in fact barack obama is a loser because his candidate didn't win. he's going out of office but he is welcoming in a gracious way the unexpected winner, donald trump, who has an agenda completely different than this president's and they'll work out a way that they can have a transition that's peaceful and we hope it will be very efficient for the country. >> you were watching, i know, the speech that hillary clinton gave yesterday. in addition to watching her and listening to what she was saying, i was looking at that room. and it looked like a political wake. and in some ways, it just showed the disappointment of about half the people in this country, particularly when it cops to the attempt to elect a woman as president of the united states. >> well, i actually think in the end, the gender piece of it was not as important as the other issues.
8:21 am
the country was saying we want big change. they didn't see her as an agent of change. we want washington to get it. we're not happy with what's going on out here. and a lot of those people are stuck or losing ground. working class in the middle part of america. but yesterday when i saw those young people weeping and -- i thought to myself, i hope they stay in the hunt. i hope that they say that political and public service is very important to me. we went through this a lot in 1968 when richard nixon beat hubert humphrey and a lot of people were dwigiving up on the system. but they've got to stay in it if they're going to change it. donald trump stayed the course. he ran a campaign that no one thought would be successful and he made his way through it. >> after 50 years in the business, you can still be surprised, can't you? >> i can be surprised -- people are tired of me saying this. but my mantra during a campaign is always the ufo here theory.
8:22 am
the unforeseen theory. this time it was magnified by 10,000. >> you're donating your memorabilia and papers to the university of iowa. why? >> it was their idea. they came to me and i was reluctant, do i have enough important stuff. they were persistent. they have a wonderful, world class library. all digital connected to the library of congress. i started going through my material. my god, i was absolutely astonished by how much i had and how important it was. >> can we talk about some of the things? actually, as i walked over to say hi to you this morning, i walked right bast this picture here which is you and nancy reagan. do you know what year that was? >> it was -- it was about three years into their -- about 1980s -- no, 1981 or '82. i'll tell you what happened. we had had a spat. i had said some things about the president that she really didn't like. i had known them from california days covering them. so the word came back, don't go near nancy. you don't even want to get around her for about three
8:23 am
months. then they called me and said you're going to be invited to a state dinner. you have to figure out what you're going to say in the receiving line. don't worry about the president. he doesn't care. all the way up, meredith kept saying, have you figured it out? i haven't figured it out. i got to her and she looked at me with that kind of steely look she had. i said nancy, back to square one. at that moment the picture was taken. and she said back to square one. that photograph arrived the next day. this is how good she was with the inscription, "tom, back to square one." >> that's great. talk to me about what's on the table. that is an incredible item. >> when the giants were playing the a's in the world series we sent a crew out to find joe dimaggio. we found him in this barber shop. he said is this for tom brokaw? i had never miet him. they said yes. he said do you think he'd like a baseball from me? there are not very many of those
8:24 am
around. a wonderful inscription. >> 1989, you were there as the berlin wall came down. you have mementos of that as well. >> it was the highlight of my career in so many ways. as they started to knock off pieces of the berlin wall, ed lee, one of our computer experts, started bringing this emto me so i brought back a bunch of them. i encased them, as you can see, in lucite, handed them out to some of my friends. every time i look at them i think about how symbolic they are about the end of communism. >> this not from the berlin wall but from the murrah federal building in oklahoma city. >> the fire commissioner, spokesman there, brought that to me because i lived in oklahoma city for so many days. and as a product of the great plains, i identified with what they were going through and wrote an essay about it. this with a is a notebook i was interviewing bill gates. i have his name circled there at a time when it was the beginning of the age that we're now living through. i did a number of interviews with him, including an hour
8:25 am
documentary. >> you remember when you stopped using notebooks? >> i still use them. i did -- even on election night. i wrote down -- >> me, too. >> -- things i wanted to make sure i have. a trusted a digital piece of it, but at the same time there is something that connects me to the idea that i'm writing about. >> great picture of you and nelson mandela. 50 years at nbc! i've been fan for all of them. >> well, we've had friendships as well. that's the other part of it. the pay-off for me is not what i got to do, it is all the people that helped me through it, quite honesty, matt. you and i have the privilege of being out in front of the camera. we couldn't do it without all these folks that are here supporting us every day. i want to make an effort for all of them to get compensated as well as you do. [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> you're not doing so bad yourself, mr. brokaw. congratulations, pal. >> thanks a lot. we're back with much more right after your local news.

8:30 am
we're back now, 8:30 on a thursday morning, it is the 10th day of november, 2016. waef's g we've got a really big crowd out on the plaza. everybody enjoying some chillier weather. >> guess what's coming? >> thanksgiving? >> well, that. >> christmas? >> the christmas tree. >> oh, the tree! yeah, the tree!
8:31 am
>> that's right. they're out in upstate new york right now cutting it down. we'll tell you the heartwarming story behind this year's rockefeller center tree. >> we always get a little bonded to the tree. it is our friend. also, we are getting ready for thanksgiving. we've been doing side dishes all week. i am very excited because potatoes are here. finally. today is potato day. the two michaels sharing some awesome recipes. then acclaimed director pet peter burg on norring our nation's hero. and i sat down with legendary carl reiner. >> you've got the forecast. you bet. right now we are looking at a gorgeous day in the east. little on the chilly side. gusty winds around the great lakes. near record temperatures in the plains. looking ahead toward friday, we have, again, a beautiful day from the great lakes, right on into the plain states. pacific northwest, little on the
8:32 am
wet side, windy and cooler as that front moves into the northeast. gorgeous weather along the gulf coast i good morning. i'm meteorologist bill henley. a chilly morning, but we've got sunshine, so it's going to be a fast warm-up during the day. near 60 in philadelphia, and with sunshine, it will feel like it's in the low 60s this afternoon. beautiful sunny skies in the suburbs. 57, the high temperature. in new jersey, 58 degrees. even at the shore, temperatures in the upper 50s today. and look at that sunshine. and bright sunshine for the lehigh valley and delaware, too, dry and just enough breeze to keep us clear during the day. have a great day. >> don't forget, get that that weather any time you need it. go to the weather channel on cable. >> mr. roker, thank you very much. director peter burg has brought some harrowing stories to the big screen, talking about "lone survivor" and "deepwater
8:33 am
horizon." you can catch his latest project on the small screen just in time for veterans day. new history channel series called "the war fighters." peter, great to see you. talk to me about the idea behind this. because this is different from what you've done. >> well, i have done shows in the military space and i am a big fan and a supporter of our military. this show gave us an opportunity to go very deep in to the personal lives and into the tactical lives of the men and women of our special operations. >> i think we've all seen a story unfold, a true story, and we've all thought, what was behind that? you know, where did these people come from? where do they go after this happened to them? i love the fact as we are looking on the screen right now, we're hearing from the actual people. >> i'm very proud of the fact that 90 veterans actually worked on the show. they were part of making the show. one of the i think really unique aspects of war fighters is that you get these men who generally
8:34 am
are the most tight-lipped, private guys you will ever meet in your life, telling really intimate stories about their love for each other and how they operated. >> it is so real because often times when hollywood does these stories -- i don't mean to paint with a broad brush -- you get only the bravado side of things. here you get the fact of what they felt like when they were going through it and what it was like after the trauma. >> absolutely. this episode you are seeing here is about a young soldier named mark guzzo who tragically committed suicide after he got out of serving in the s.e.a.l.s. he was an extraordinary man. you go et to hear interviews with his brothers from the military community, but also his parents who both served in the military for a combined 60 years. it's gut-wrenching and really takes you deeply into an issue which today, right after what we've experienced in the last couple of days, i think is so important that we really can pay our respects and learn a little
8:35 am
bit more -- a lot more about these extraordinary men. >> i'm so glad you brought that up because the timing is important because veterans day obviously. but after an election like this that divides the nation in half, everyone can agree on the support for these kinds of people. >> certainly the one thing that clinton and trump both agreed on was that we need to do more for our veterans. i think that to do more we've got to understand more deeply who these men are, what they go through, what their lives are like when they get out. if people really do care -- everybody likes to say "thank you for your service" and "i respect you so much." i feel like if we really care, it is our responsibility to get to know these men a little more deeply so we can understand that. >> talking about the small screen here. can we go back to the big screen for a second ? >> do whatever you want, matt. >> you have a new prelim comie
8:36 am
i -- film coming up. >> it starts right before the boston marathon bombing and ends right after the second bomber was caught. it is really a look at how this extraordinary community came together in the face of what is becoming this new horrific reality that we live in. it's also -- if i may say without getting in trouble, a positive look at law enforcement and a show that really reminds us why cops can be so -- such great, incredible people. it shows the very best of this community responding to a really horrific experience. >> the emotions are still so raw on that subject, especially up in boston. does that put extra pressure on you when you make a movie like that? >> i mean it -- i was joke something i should go do a love story in france and i end up making movies like "patriots's day" or "lone survivor." but to be welcomed into that community and meet the police and private citizens and the fbi agents and the medical personnel that responded, much like we saw
8:37 am
here 9/11 and we've seen many places since then. but to see how honorable and patriotic and just what great men and women responded to boston like responded to tampa or san bernardino. it was an honor. so the pressure was a bit more intense than maybe doing a super hero film, but it was a privilege to tell that story. >> you and mark wahlberg are a good team on movies like this. peter, always good to see you. what a pleasure. thank you very much. you can catch the veterans day marathon of "the war fighters" starting tomorrow night on the history channel. up next, al's going to sit down with a living legend -- carl reiner. but first, this is "today" on nbc. we are back at 8:39.

to sit down, basically with some of your heroes. >> absolutely. and have a good time while we do it. it is a comedic writer, actor and director. carl and i chatted at his home in los angeles on the secret to longevity and why laughter can really be the best medicine. >> i got 12 emmys. i have three children, they can get four a piece when i go. >> there you go! >> reporter: if carl reiner's got something to say, chances are it's funny. >> comedy is always about what's happening in your life and the world and there's nothing better than getting a laugh. it makes everybody happy. >> reporter: over a career that spanned more than seven decades, the 94-year-old has penned, directed and acted out some of comedy's greatest hits. >> there's the little lady that put you out of business. >> reporter: from the semi-auto buy graphical dick van dyke show, to wonderful collaborations with steve martin like "the jerk."
8:41 am
and the 2000-year-old man. >> people actually hit themselves on the face? >> oh, boy, wow! >> that hurts though. >> boy, you bet it does. >> reporter: reiner's ad lib routine with mel brooks. >> mel is the funniest human being in the world. he's connected to the truth, to the absolute truth. you tell the absolute truth and you get a laugh. >> is it true that almost every night you and he sit here -- >> he sits right there. >> he sits there. >> right there. >> here are the two funniest guys on the planet, you're both now in your 90s. >> well, if you stop, then they put you away. >> what's your fountain of youth? >> having something to do. i can't wait to get up in the morning. you do these leg exercises. i'm not kidding, they absolutely work. very few people 94 can put their legs like that. >> carl, i'm just curious. there's like a couple of bags. are those feathers? >> you guessed. >> where they from?
8:42 am
>> they're chicken feathers. they come from those pillows. and mel sits there. one day he goes, what's that? it's a feather sticking. and i put them here. here's another one. >> here -- take it. >> you've written about relationships. you've written about friendships. what makes a good relationship? >> my wife said it best. marry someone who can stand you. isn't that perfect? she had a way of putting things. my son, robby, when he did "harry and sally" and she's the one that delivered the line, "i'll have what she's having." >> i'll have what she's having. >> is comedy genetic? >> it can be genetic. that's a good beginning. but it is also environmentally. if you laugh at things, you find things to laugh at in the worse situations sometimes you find things to laugh at. >> oh, look at that. that's a goodie. that's worth it. >> that's worth it. >> there is so much amazing in
8:43 am
that piece. but i think in doing the yoga pose on the bed. >> at 94! >> he's very flexible and limber. >> that's the secret to good comedy. >> i don't know what might happen. >> that's cool. up next, michael white, michael lamonaco together in the kitchen, how to make potatoes the real star of your thanksgi ♪ the city's looking like a ghost town ♪ ♪ on a moonless summer night ♪ raindrops on the windshield ♪ ♪ there's a storm movin' in
