8:04 am
you accuse the information being fake when you provide -- >> i don't know. i was given that information. >> the president also said the country's problems are not hitz fault. he said, to be honest, i inherited a res. he inherited an unemployment rate less than 5% and the country was adding jobs. >> scott pelley was at the press conference. he joins us this morning. great to be with you. i was watching your coverage. i remember when you interviewed him before he became president you said something to him like, you know, donald trump, if you're elected, running the country is not going to be like running a company. he said, we'll see. what do you see? >> i doesn't think he's mad at the media. i think he's mad at not being the boss anymore. any president who comes in has to answer to the public,
8:05 am
only thing tup has done in his life is run a private family company. i asked him in that same interview, who tells you no. stumped him. he could not come up with a name of anybody who tells him no. but now as president, one of the most constrained jobs in the world, all day long people are saying, yes, sir, mr. president, but you can't do that. >> even yesterday he had it against the advice of his top advisers. >> well, there are some things the president can to and that is call a news conference every time he wants to. we were all scram bing bling to get on the air because that was a completely unexpected and unannounced thing. again, this is what the founders had in mind when they created the system of checks and blajs. they wanted the president, the con greg and courts to be constrained. he
8:06 am
>> he's con strarmed in terms of his executive order. we haven't seen yet what the legislator brand will do. you have republicans in control. what is the onus on republicans and he's promised a lot of change but we have yet to see that in terms of congressional action. >> mr. trump tweeted something that perfectly captured what he has yet to learn about being president. he said the obama care and repeal is moving fast, end quote. this is the sixth of the american economy. it's $3 trillion. i'm sure it seems like it's moving fast when you haven't shown it in anyone. but when they roll this out, some significant amount of the public is going to say, well, that's not what we had in mind. congress is going to say, thank you for your suggestion. it won't be moving fast and i think this will continue to dawn on the president
8:07 am
forward. >> despite the past few weeks, the president insisted yesterday that his administration is a fine tuned machine. do you think he convinced the american public of that? >> i don't think so. the evidence just isn't there and it remights me of a wonderful quote. eisenhower was the last pretty we had who had no political experience and truman said, poor ike. he's going to say, do this and do that and nothing is going to happen. it won't be a bit like the army. >> and he's the president of the united states, yet he keeps bringing up hillary clinton's name. >> he was running against her yesterday, wasn't he. fascinating. >> what to you make of that and when will that stop, do you think? >> never. >> he needs a foiled push against. so hillary clinton is that

fighters said, quote, the government is in tearbling turmoil. i hope they straighten it out soon because we're a nation at war. >> part of the campaign was to advertise him as a successful businessman but a lot of people would say it's not very business-like. >> norah was making a point before we were on the air, the trump organization was not a public company. he never had to answer to a board of directors. >> yes. >> so in terms of business, we don't know how trump ran the trump organization, but we can srchly believe he was not used to having anyone tell him no. >> if he had been there yesterday, what would you have asked him? >> wow. i'd have to take -- i have to say the press corps did a wonderful job and i also have to
8:10 am
good for the president. he walked out there and took questions from all-comers, and it was like it was never going to end and he called on people like our major garrett who he knew were going to ask the most difficult questions. so absolute credit to the president for that. >> i agree. he called on almost everyone. >> he nearly wore them out. >> he did that during the can't pain too. >> scott pelley always great to have you here. >> so good to be here, thank you. monday marks one month since the inauguration. we'll see where his promises stand on "cbs this morning." the tv drama "homeland" includes a love story that's captivating fans and the actors. ahead, we go behind the scenes and sigh why claire danes says

this morning. erin, good morning. what's the connection of the suspects to the case. what was their motive? >> well, i mean the motive is a little up in the air. there's been no trial so there may be more evidence. it does turn out that husband who has an airtight albie did grow up there and did know one of the suspects. they say murder for hire. but the real evidence is why he would want his wife dead. as you all kind of remarked about the 17 times, this was a savage murder. and then just to throw in one of these weird twists, okay, that suspect appeared to be very obsessed with the todoctor's husband, so much so he started dressing and looking like him. >> that's creepy. >> i know. when i was doing interviews, do you remember the movie "single
