>> reporter: the president-elect making official his announcement to nominate retired general james mad with trump on stage as the crowd chanted mad dog. this as trump picked a new fight with an american company. trump tweeting, boeing is building a brand-new 747 air force one for future presidents, but costs are out of control. more than $4 billion. cancel order. then at trump tower, taking the fight to the airwaves. >> well, the plane is totally out of control. i think it's ridiculous. i think boeing is doing a little bit of a number. we want boeing to make a lot of money, but not that much money. >> reporter: bloomberg reporting boeing executives reached out to the trump transition team after the tweet, expressing the costs could be lowered if the

announcing a new deal and taking credit for a massive investment from japanese billionaire, masayoshi son. >> he pledged he would put $50 billion into the united states because of our victory. he wasn't investing in our -- 50 billion. 50,000 jobs. 50,000 jobs he's going to be investing in. he's a great guy. >> reporter: b providing no details of when or where those jobs are going. now, we also want to mention that president-elect trump's national security adviser, michael flynn, while his son has been asked to leave the transition team. the younger flynn promoted a story on twitter, a fake news story imply kat indicated in that d.c. shooting at that pizzeria and told the call to get rid of flynn came all the way from the top, from the president-elect himself. george. >> okay, tom, thanks very much. let's talk about it with matthew

so, it's pretty clear that the president-elect is signaling a new way of doing business with businesses naming and shaming them when he has to, embracing them when he can as well. what are the implications? >> well, i think first of all we have no idea what his broad economic policy is, but i think it's very interesting he's sort of picking the winners and losers. much of what president obama was criticized by he seems like he's monty hall on "let's make a deal" figuring out which ones he wants and shaming those he thinks are doing bad and rewarding those he thinks are doing well. in the end, they have to be tested on truth or consequences. what he does and how it really impacts the economy. >> that's the end game, but jon, in the short-term, helping him? >> what voters see is see him doing these symbolic gestures, exactly along the lines of what he campaigned for bringing jobs to america, fighting government

>> huge questions about all of these, but there's a new bloomberg poll out showing his approval rating at the highest point ever throughout the entire campaign, it's only 50%, low by the standards of new presidents but higher. but 55% of the country saying they're optimistic about a trump presidency. >> had president obama come in 2008 at about 78%. some concerning that poll about president-elect trump and his businesses. >> yes, the poll shows clearly two-thirds of the public says he has to choose between being president and being the head of his company. but the pollls public is optimistic he will do just that, and they know this is a very critical issue. that's a real vulnerability for trump. if he is seen as having conflict of interest, you will see big -- you'll see that approval number come way down and that's why he's divested. he says from all his public stock holdings and there will be a big meeting about his business. >> matthew dowd, how far does he go with that announcement neck week of walling himself off from the businesses? >> well, i think one of the questions is is how long are the conservatives and the republicans in congress going to

right now, they're giving him a lot of leeway to go in this direction that seems much like an obama-type economic policy than a republican economic policy on trade, on taxes, on businesses and all of that. that is the real fundamental question is, will conservatives keep giving him a pass on going against traditionally conservative policy. >> a lot of big questions ahead. thank you both very much. we'll move on to those protests at texas a&m. thousand white nationalist leader. "nightline" anchor, juju chang spoke with the man at the center of the controversy and she joins us from college station, texas. good morning, juju. u, robin.er: good morning to tempers flared on campus with crowds chanting "say no the hate." in fact, the protesters far outweighed the few supporters of the racially extreme views of richard spencer. he is the white nationalist who told us that it is donald trump who has catapulted his movement

>> what i find fascinating -- i see myself as mainstream. i want to be mainstream. i want to be part of an elite. >> reporter: are you trying to normalize racism? >> yes, i'm trying to normal racism as you call it, absolutely i'm trying to normalize my ideas. our ideas of the alt-right. i do not want the alt-right to i do not want to be the alt-right to be a fringe movement. i want the dominant movement. >> reporter: texas a&m, you should know did not invite richard spencer, it was a former student who did that. even though they denounce his views they say once the room was booked they felt they had to adhere to his first amendment rights of freedom of speech. robin? >> i know you'll have more of your interview with richard spencer tonight on "nightline." can you give us a little more of a sense of what he talks about? >> reporter: well, i asked him about his controversial views and whether he was playing with fire using a lot of the nazi symbolism that went viral when his supporters did the nazi

that was irony and exuberance on the part of the his supporters, but there's a lot to dig into. >> many will be watching you tonight on "nightline." thank you, juju. >> that's some explanation. >> no doubt. let's turn to new orleans where a murder trial is under way for the person who shot former nfl star will smith in a road rage incident. abc's ryan smith is here with more and, ryan, it was pretty powerful to see a saints teammate show up in support. >> you're right, michael. brees and others at the trial of cardell hayes. he is charged with second degree and attempted murder claiming that he feared for his life. he is pleading not guilty. this morning, the man accused of gunning down former nfl star and super bowl winner will smith is a deadly case of road rage on trial. teammates of the former new orleans saint including star quarterback drew brees, running back deuce mcallister and roman harper and steve gleason

the community, not buying it. do you trust the sheriff? >> no, i don't. no, i don't and that just goes to show how divided we are. >> reporter: the sheriff saying the deadly confrontation wasn't about race but started when mcknight allegedly cut gasser off driving on a bridge and gasser then sets out after mcknight. the two drivers tailing each other for miles, and the surveillance video just a mile from the shooting scene, you can see the two vehicles matching the description of mcknight's silver suv and gasser's blue car speeding through a turn. minutes later, the two stopping at this light, and mcknight boxing in gasser's car both arguing through open windows until police say mcknight got out of his suv leaning down toward gasser's passenger window. >> mr. gasser pulls his weapon and fires three shots at joe mcknight, killing him. >> reporter: police finding three shell casings and blood in gasser's car according to multiple sources. it was not the first time gasser had been involved in a road rage incident. abc news learning he was

station at this same intersection. charges were later dropped. the sheriff saying gasser claims mcknight threatened him while the two were arguing, but we're told that witnesses contradict part of his statement. gasser has not entered a plea, george. >> let's welcome our insiders, dan abrams and nancy grace. the sheriff fired right back. >> i don't know that the sheriff has done himself a o with his press conference, but with that said the end result here is probably the right one dealt in the right way meaning you don't necessarily want to charge someone from the moment you begin the investigation. that would then be used against them later, and the fact he is charging him. manslaughter versus murder, i think is also helpful. we have seen in a lot of these cases, the tendency to overcharge. >> here we go with overcharge. >> look at -- have you not seen it. >> well, you've been saying that

i think is totally bass ackwards. you don't shoot somebody and then let them out of jail. that's not how it works, so i don't know where your theory is coming from. >> it's called an investigation. >> he confessed on the scene. here's the thing and all this about stand your ground, he, gasser is the pursuer. he's the one that chased mcknight down, and another thing. he is in his vehicle. if you look at the injuries according to the autopsy, mcknig i hand which is defensive, the right shoulder, it pierced his lung, his kidney, his liver. there's no injury to gasser. >> gasser in the vehicle. >> gasser being in the car actually hips his case because under louisiana law, he's to argue that, i was trying to prevent him from getting into my car. >> and doing what. he was unarmed. it goes down to self-defense. gasser is armed.

i can't start an argument with you, george, and we're having a verbal confrontation. >> sure, can you. >> and you shoot me or i shoot you with an uzi. sticks and stones, dan. words don't count. >> do you agree that in a case like this where it's clear there was a fight that -- >> verbal altercation. like we're having now. ooh, let me run and get my m-16 out of there. >> that a manslaughter charge is appropriate in a case like this? >> no, i think that -- hold on. premeditation under the law can be formed in an instant. the time it takes you to reach in your console, get a gun and peel off three shots, that is time for premeditation under the law. whether anybody likes it or not. >> and i think -- >> three shots on an unarmed man. it is a murder charge. >> they could have, and i think they were smart instead of looking for an actual conviction instead of -- >> you make that argument. >> media headlines saying we charged him with murder and having to go to the jury and saying, you know what, jurors, we prefer to get manslaughter and then potentially risk getting an acquittal. >> every jury trial is a potential risk for an acquittal.

ten years ago count against gasser? >> i think it will come in at trial and all this being a race hate crime, maybe it was, but remember, his first victim was a white male. right there, the same crescent city connecter. it is so identical. >> we'll see if he testifies. if he doesn't testify -- >> it's coming in. >> isn't he going to have to testify? >> probably. >> probably. >> but, you know, i mean, look, it depends on -- we'll learn a little more about what happens and what the eyewitnesses said. >> those charges were dropped too in 2006 but a bad act doesn't have to be a conviction to come in. >> i'm sure we'll be coming back on this. to michael. what's coming up on the big board? coming up on our big board, more on donald trump's twitter battle over air force one and why it really costs billions. plus, prince harry is in some hot water for visiting hi american girlfriend. we'll tell you why when we come back in two minutes. s american girlfriend. we'll tell you why when we come back in two minutes. american girlfriend. we'll tell you why when we come

could cost up to $3.2 billion. that's not $4 billion. the pentagon saying it's about 2.7 billion. that could go up or down, no contract yet for new air force one. >> still a lot of money. >> yeah, that's still a lot of money. why does it cost so much? >> all right. let's start with strahan airlines. you want to buy a 747. it's $380 million list price, okay? boeing probably is going to knock some off that because they'll build it from scratch so say they knock off 50, 80 million, $300 million just for the airframe, okay. now, you want your opt, come on in. i got some things for you. so the secret service and the air force want an aircraft that has superior defense systems that can ward off missile attacks or rocket attacks and they also want to have shielded against electromagnetic, and nuclear attacks. they want secure connections, uplink, downlink, and have to be

they'll test them and add that to the cost. could it be $500 million? $600 million a plane? are we talking $2 billion? $3 billion? who knows. could it get to 4? it is the government. >> yeah, that's right. >> that doesn't sound so bad. >> when you look at that. tell us about it. you've been on it. >> we ge this one is up here. the first time you fly they give you a certificate that says that you flew on air force once. we sit in the back. we never see the president unless he comes back to see us. the seats are better than economy. they're a little bigger. the crew is nice. you get the m&ms with the presidential seal. personally i'm a hot sauce guy so i have my little hot sauce with the presidential seal that came from air force one. it's cool. i was in seattle working when they built the two air force ones flying now and the boeing workers and executives very proud that the president is flying in their aircraft. >> they've been in service for quite a few years, decades, haven't they? >> reporter: you're getting -- i think it was 30 years ago, robin, when i was working in seattle that those planes have been flying.

leave for salaried employs for up to a year. and basic of america entitled full and part tief i'm employees up to 16 weeks off. this is about work/life balance improving the culture but is going to help them retain employees. you give employees benefits like this they are much more inclined to stick around plus they'll have a little extra time to make the crib -- to bill it. >> that's true. >> let's talk to ericka souter from mom.me about it. you can this is important. the united states is one of the only developed countries that doesn't have a paid parental leave policy. icona po ikea stepping in. >> motherhood hasn't been respected enough in companies to warrant this kind of leave. it's not a priority and this is probably one of the best policies that we've ever seen. and it's amazing when you consider that most people in

12% actually of people have it. so it's really great when a big company like this does something like this. you're opening that it sets the new standard and people follow that lead. >> wonderful that they're recognizing that families look different and talking about if you have the child yourself, if you adopt a child, a foster child, that's wonderful because that's what we're seeing in society now. >> right. >> when you look at this policy and knowing what it is going to do, there is a stigma, some workers feel that they're a parent in the workplace. >> the parenting penalty is real. a lot of moms tell me when they get back to work they feel the perception of their work ethic has changed. their path to promotion has changed and a lot of men are feeling it too. this goes a long way in helping everyone feel that making this life change is important and cared about in their company. >> you don't think this is a good policy to have?

[ cheers and applause ] >> woke up too soon before the other passengers. you and jennifer, you're the two main ones that we see throughout the entire film. >> right. essentially, yeah, we're these two passengers, there are 5,000 people on this ship but all of them are in a state of hibernation and due to this miss earous malfunction in our pods, we wake up 90 years early and so it's the two of us and we're in isolation and, you know, going

there's another actor michael sheen plays a character 0 who is this android robot because -- >> brilliant. >> he plays this humanoid type bartender character who is in -- >> i'm glad there is a bartender. that's a long time. >> wouldn't be so bad. and we're so desperate and longing for any kind of human connection we try to find that with him and so there's a lot of like comedy and also, you know, dram attempting to find some interpersonal connection with something that's not a human being. >> your chemistry with jennifer is really remarkable. i have not seen the movie yet. we cannot wait to but i'm loving these photos that you keep posting. >> oh, yeah. >> can you explain, you're like hazing her. >> she's not on social media. she doesn't do -- >> you're intentionally cutting her out of pictures. >> the fan -- that one is, yeah -- >> oh. >> like you said she's not on

of sun and clouds with highs in the mid to upper 20s today and tomorrow. look for more clouds tomorrow and a few flurries tomorrow afternoon. windy and chill today- thursday before >> all right. michael, let's head on back to you. >> all right. thank you, ginger. and now to a revolutionary way to treat traumatic brain injuries. athletes teaming up with veterans to fight the effects of and they're already seeing major results. they are some of america's strongest, pillars of strength on the gridiron and on the front lines. but their battles have left thousands of veterans and pro athletes with traumatic brain injury. >> so once my nfl career ended the transition for me was rough knowing that this was it. my brain, i just couldn't fathom like what do i do next and for

in michigan paired veterans with ex-athletes in treatment and the hopes of building a path to recovery together. >> you don't know how bad you feel until you feel good and it's not unmanly. it's not being a sissy. you're not weak. you're just damaged and a damaged vehicle can be fixed. you're not broken. >> reporter: after four years of study, amazing results. the athletes and vets in treatment together saw improvements in depression, anxiety, ptsd and even pain. the impact fund will help these groups to get treatment in their own dedicated facility in jacksonville, florida, opening early next year. >> what we're trying to do is help people who need help. it comes down to that. >> all right, and joining us now are three board members of the after the impact fund, matt burke, a former 15-year veteran of the nfl, retired u.s. army brigadier general rich

>> nice to see you. and, coach, i want to start with you. you've been around the nfl for over four decades, and we saw mike ditka, nfl hall of famer in that piece. why are so many nfl legends coming together to help with this cause? >> well, it's something we need to find help for these guys. i played back in the '60s. we had an awful lot of guys that are really struggling right now with these issues we're talking about and we've got a place they can go for help and it gives them hope things can be better. >> and, matt, why a treatment facility that's for military veterans and nfl veterans? what do they have in common? >> well, if you look at football and military, the cultures are very similar. all the guys are tough, they're team oriented. they're mission driven so we found the last four years with this pilot program is that the two -- there's a mutual respect that they can build upon and support and inspire and encourage each other and, therefore, they heal stronger and heal better.

the military operates without all the fanfare of the nfl. you know, in certain ways so different but does it help the soldiers to know that some of the nfl players, these stars that they watched on tv, that they're going through some of the things that they're going through? >> it's a tremendous help. what we've seen is when you pair two football players together for the treatment, they do fairly well. you pair two veterans together, they do fairly well. but when you take a veteran and a football player, put them together, they open up more. they respond to the treatment better, and we've seen much stronger results and it's just been an incredible experiment over the last four years, so we think going forward this is going to be the way to treat these young veterans and also these football players who are struggling with traumatic brain injury, ptsd and other things. >> how many guys do you have in your program right now? >> well, the facility will be able to accommodate 27 impatient facility for extended stays, comprehensive.

also offer services to their families. sometimes that's the forgotten component when the ex-veteran or football player is struggling the effect it has on his wife and kids. so it's going to be a -- it's a comprehensive model we're obviously very excited about. >> now, if you're a soldier or you're an nfl vet, how do you reach out to this program? >> aftertheimpactfund.org is our website. you can find out all the information there. >> all right. well, you know what, thank you all for bringing light to this and thank you all for doing the work you're doing to help so many everybody needs a little help sometimes, and you guys are getting it done, so thank you so much. you know what, you guys, stay right there because when we come back, "star wars rogue one's" ben mendelsohn is
