castro regime and proving that human rights on the agenda today. thousands of people are opening their homes to guests. we will talk to the ceo of airbnb about the opportunities and challenges of doing business on the communist island ahead. trump said raul castro insulted the president by not greeting him at the airport. violence marred another trump rally this weekend. police in tucson threw out a group of demonstrators, including a won wearing kkk head gear. after trump denounced her a spectator, suddenly punched and kicked another man in the group. the alleged attacker was arrested. trump said last night he does not condone violence but accused the media of not showing why the man started punching. >> they are walking these two people out. the klan outfit is still on the
8:04 am
incensed that someone wear a ku klux klan outfit and did some swinging. all it showed was this wonderful -- i hear he is a very, very fine guy. this wonderful african-american man swinging, swinging and nobody knows why he did it. and i think it's very, very unfair. >> another video shows someone grabbing a protester's collar. a trump spokesman denies reports that campaign manager corey lewandowski did the grabbing. the controversy surrounding donald trump's campaign extends beyond the violence at his rallies. the inability of the party to embrace a front-runner is make ago contested contention more likely. republic national convention reince priebus is with us. >> thank you. >> reporter: i want to start with the violence. >> sure. >> why do you think the violence is happening and who do you think is responsible and what do you think needs to be done to stop it? >> well, i mean, i think plenty of blame to go around. i think party leaders on both
8:05 am
i certainly have. i don't think violence is the answer. i think violence gets violence. so, you know, i think it always takes two to tango but, obviously, it needs to be denounced from all sides. and so -- but i also think the media is obsessed with it. i'm not necessarily you all at cbs, but other shows have this stuff on a constant loop. i mean, they find an altercation and they play it and it's 24/7 and they preempt everyone else and everyone is kicked off the air hours and hours so we can keep talking about a couple of knuckleheads swinging at each other. >> mr. trump has warned about riots if he is denied the nomination at the convention in july in cleveland. i mean, what do you think of a warning like that coming from a front-runner and are you doing possibility? >> well, i guess i don't put it at the level of a warning to us.
8:06 am
said yesterday he doesn't believe that. but nevertheless, the point is still a good question. we prepare for all contingencies and have over 50 million dollars of security at the convention. it sounds like a lot, but 24, 2,500 getings is not delegates are not that many people. most state charns irmans have conventions larger that. we will have a fun contention and have a good time in cleveland. >> we are talking about the tone and tenor of this campaign. i want to ask you about some of the comments that the republican front-runner donald trump has made, specifically about megyn kelly who is a anchor on the fox news channel. nine times the past six days he has tweeted specifically about megyn kelly and seven times calling her crazy. fox news has put out a statement saying, quote, trump's extreme sick obsession with her is
8:07 am
presidential candidate who wants to occupy the highest office in the land. would you agree that such personal attacks are deplorable? >> well, i would agree that, you know, people running for office ought to focus in on the positive, the message of the future, bringing all americans together and uniting all of us. i think sometimes the daily grind of campaigns can get the best of everybody. but i also think that, you know, we all need to rise above these such things. so, look. i think this is about fixing this country and getting people back to work, on track, tackling a debt bomb in this country that is going to destroy us. >> mr. chairman! we pressed democrats -- >> the 11th commandment -- >> mr. president, we press democrats and republicans to answer the same way on this show. let me ask you seriously because i think this is serious. calling another female journalist crazy and sick and
8:08 am
and is that what the republican party stands for? >> it's not a matter of whether it's presidential or not because it's a word that we can all choose to define for ourselves. but it's not something i would do. and it's not something that i think we aspire to get engaged with. i think we need to keep things at top level, keep things positive. talk about bringing america country. >> is your job harder for you these days when you talk about unifying the country? lindsey graham said on "face the nation" yesterday he would rather lose without donald trump than win with him. how do you get unity in the republican party? do you find your job harder for you these days? >> don't confuse the unity with unanimity, you know? you're never going to get unanimity and you're never getting 100% of everyone on bovered board. clearly, this has been a contentious drama-filled.
8:09 am
perspective. democrats having a rough primary and ours are a little more drama-filled but the point is we will come together because we will have a convention and unify and that is where my job does get tougher because i need to get everyone back in the room and coming in the same direction following the convention. and so that is what we are working hard on every day and we cleveland. we could have an open convention so, look. we are in historic times and i recognize that. but, at the same time, when you take all of our candidates and put them head-to-head against hillary clinton and no cases we are beating her, if not slightly behind. so, look. it's a wide open race and i don't think anyone can deny that. >> you say you're joining the challenge of the job? you still got your hair so that is good. you're not pulling it out. all right. >> you know, i appreciate it. no, i am actually enjoying it. it's a great opportunity. i have a front seat to history. >> yes. >> and i'm hoping, you know, every day to do my best and be

8:36 am
a new rule every night they lay out their clothes on the ground and get dressed as soon as they wake up. no one told us what we do in the morning relates to having dinner in the evening. >> the research is there having dinner together as a family not only improves intelligence but also social skills. the data is clear. >> absolutely right. >> cuts back on the criminal record too. >> that is true! that is true! i'm not making that up. >> you had, too, about companies how it works in the companies, that it's all about working with a team and you can work with a team that you feel you can trust, that you feel has your back and that you have the be judged. >> exactly right. we know this from looking at how google has studied and teams at "saturday night live" have studied its teams. if you want a team whether at work or be around the thanksgiving dinner table, if you want a team that works you got to make sure everyone can speak up equally and we are
8:37 am
nonverbal cues to listen to each other. >> speaking about equally, interesting. they want you to speak up until you say something the company doesn't want to hear. then they say stop speaking up. >> the smartest team isn't necessarily the best team. >> exactly right. putting all of the smart people together in one team won't work unless you have a smart culture, a smart process. for people really feeling like say. >> i have to put -- gayle, did you think when with i was reading about this that good teams and the psychological safety and i thought about us. >> i did too. >> on this show and why this show works. you really need to explain in detail sort of that thing. let me ask you, too, though. have you a great story about nursing homes. two nursing homes that have sort of the same idea. one group of seniors unhappy and the other group of seniors happy. why were the seniors happy? >> because what is known as -- they looked for ways to prove that they were in control of their own lives. one of my favorite examples at one of those nursing homes they feed everyone a same meal on a
8:38 am
cake and he got that every night served to him. he would trade it away for some other dessert with his colleagues. they asked him why. he said i would rather a meal of my own design than eat what is forced on me even if i love it. >> the thing about "frozen" was good too. the musical was not a hit in the beginning and team had to come together and figure it out. there was a deadline. >> to finding ways to prove we are in control and taking "frozen" on the brink of catastrophe saying i want to tell a story that means something to me about sisters and the surprising insights to how women can become a unit and save each other. breakthrough. >> to motivate your employs you have to make them feel like you have some control. the first step of creating drive >> exactly right. >> great at home and at work. >> that's right. make choices. got it. thank you, charles. i got choices i want to make around here!
