2:10 am
joining us is chief washington correspondent john dickerson, with more of his remarkable "face the nation" interview with the president, john? >> reporter: scott, after our sit-down interview with the president i spoke about the weight of the decisions he had to make as president and whether he has turned to president obama for counsel as he said he might. is there no corners you are hide in? >> that's certainly right. there's no corners. there's a certain openness, but there's nobody out there. i've never seen anybody out there, as you can imagine. >> what he meant is it all comes back to you. >> sure, sure, sure. i think that's true anyway, but it does. there's no question. >> when did it hit you, the
2:11 am
that idea that you were, regardless of what happened, the buck stopped with you? >> it's the bigness of the office, the bigness of the transactions, the bigness of the deals. you look at the order of planes. it's bigger than any order of planes. you look at aircraft carriers that cost $10 billion and $12 billion to build and submarines that cost $5 billion to build. it's the magnitude. but most importantly, you know, the decisions, like when i made the decision to go with syria, the 59 tomahawk missiles. unbelievable technology. we have unbelievable talent. but those are tough decisions. those aren't like decisions that i'm going to buy a building. because it's human lives. >> killing people. >> you're killing people. and you can kill the wrong people, too. you know, those things go off and they end up in a town or they end up in a city. and you have another tragedy on
2:12 am
are unbelievable. it's killing. i hate it. but things have to be done. >> how do you learn that skill in who do you call to say what's it like? >> there's nobody you can call. >> did president obama give you any advice that you thought was elpful? >> he was very nice to me, but after that we've had some difficulties. it doesn't matter. words are less important to me than deeds. you saw what happened with surveillance and everybody happened with surveillance. >> difficulties how? >> well, you saw what happened with surveillance, i thought that was inappropriate. >> what does that mean? >> you can figure that out yourself. >> you call him sick and bad. >> you can figure it out yourself. he was very nice to me with words and when i was with him. but after that, there has been no relationship. >> but you stand by that claim about -- >> i don't stand by anything. you can take it the way you
2:13 am
our side's been proven very strongly and everybody's talking about it. frankly, it should be discussed. i think that is a very big sur vailance of our citizens. i think that's a very big topic and a topic that should be number one, and we should find out what the hell is going on. >> i just wanted to find out, though, you're the president of the united states, you said he was sick and bad. >> can you take any way, you can take it any way you want. >> but i'm asking you. >> you don't have to ask me. >> why not? >> because i have my own opinions. can you have your own opinions. >> but i want to know your opinions. you're the president of the united states. >> that's enough. thank you. thank you very much. >> well, he did bring it up, after all, john, what did you learn about the president in that meeting. >> well, we learned that he still thinks president obama is to blame for surveillance of his campaign, even though the fbi
2:14 am
there was no support for president trump's previous claim that the obama administration had wiretapped trump tower. we also have learned to identify when the president has had enough. but after that we traveled to harrisburg, pennsylvania with the president on his plane. he hosted us in his office there and we spoke to him later as we continued throughout the rest of the day. >> one of the things that jumped out at me in the interview was president trump telling you that he would not touch medicare. and that was one of his campaign promises. >> that's right. he said he, during the campaign, he said he was not going to touch medicare, but he has modified or reversed several campaign promises as president, from his position on china to opposition to the export/import bank for example. in this case, members of his own administration, his omb director and health and human services secretary have in the past when they were members of the house supported modifications to medicare. and of course speaker paul ryan does and is trying to convince the president to change his mind. so the president
2:15 am
president, he is sticking with his campaign pledge, he will not agree to touch medicare for current recipients or future retirees, he said, except to address waste, fraud and abuse. >> john dickerson, anchor of "face the nation," with the interview everybody's talking about today. thank you. >> thanks scott. john's interview also revealed some confusion about what's happening with the republican health care bill at the other end of pennsylvania avenue. nancy cordes is there. >> pre-existing conditions are in the bill, and i mandated, i said it has to be. >> reporter: in the interview, president trump insisted his party's bill does not weaken protections for the sick. >> one of the fixes was discussed, pre-existing was optional for the states. >> sure, in one of the fixes. >> so it would be permanent. >> sure. >> that's a development, sir. >> reporter: except it hasn't happened. the latest bill does let
2:16 am
give insurers options. >> it could affect people with pre-existing conditions. and it will make insurance probably much more expensive for them. >> reporter: in harrisburg, pennsylvania this weekend, president trump pushed his party for a vote. >> and i'll be so angry at congressman kelly and congressman marino and all of our congressman in this room if we don't get that damn thing passed quickly. >> reporter: but that was just after he told dickerson he was in no rush. >> take your time, make it perfect. >> reporter: his chief economic adviser delivered another mixed message on cbs this morning. >> we're going to get health care down into the house. we're convinced we have the votes. >> reporter: that came as a surprise to republican leaders here on capitol hill who have not scheduled the vote, and here's why. scott, cbs news has confirmed

2:47 am
>> why? >> tough decisions. >> you're killing people. >> you're killing people, and you can kill other people, they go off in a town or a city and you have another tragedy on your hands. so these decisions are unbelievable in terms of the importance. it's killing. i hate it. but things have to be done. >> how do you learn that skill? who do you call to say what's it like? >> there's nobody you can call. >> did president obama give you any advice that was helpful? >> well, he was very nice to me, but after that, we've had some difficulties. so it doesn't matter. you know, words are less important to me than deeds. and you saw what happened with surveillance, and everybody saw what happened with surveillance. >> difficulties how? >> well, you saw what happened with surveillance. and i think that was inappropriate. >> what does that mean? >> you can figure that out yourself. >> well, the reason i asked you call him sick and bad. >> look, you can figure it out yourself. he was very nice to me with words, but, and when i was with

missouri has gotten nearly a foot of rain, causing this tractor-trailer to wash away and turning neighborhoods into lake front properties. the governor has declared a state of emergency and called in the national guard. there have been nearly 100 evacuations and three dozen rescues. >> in many parts of missouri, this will be a flood of historic proportions. >> reporter: officials are now preparing for the worst, as there's more rain in the forecast. tony dokoupil, cbs news, pacific, missouri. today the white house had to clean up after the storm that president trump created when he said in a bloomberg interview that he would be, quote, honored to meet with north korea's dictator under the right circumstances. the president's spokesman said today it is clear those circumstances are not right, right now. mr. trump talked about north korea and much more in another interview with our own john dickerson. we have more on that from margaret brennan at the white house. >> i would not be happy if he

3:10 am
joining us is chief washington correspondent john dickerson, with more of his remarkable "face the nation" interview with the president, john? >> reporter: scott, after our sit-down interview with the president, i spoke with him in the oval office about the weight of the decisions he had to make as president and whether he turned to president obama for counsel as he said he might. president george w. bush said there's no corners to hide in. >> that's certainly right. there's no corners. there's a certain openness, but there's nobody out there. i've never seen anybody out there, as you can imagine. >> what he meant is it all comes back to you. >> sure, sure, sure. i think that's true anyway, but it does. there's ue
3:11 am
magnitude of the office, and that idea that you were, regardless of what happened, the buck stopped with you? >> it's the bigness of the office, the bigness of the transactions, the bigness of the deals. you look at the order of planes. it's bigger than any order of planes. you look at aircraft carriers that cost $10 billion and $12 billion to build and submarines that cost $5 billion to build. it's the magnitude. but most importantly, you know, the decisions, like when i made the decision to go with syria, the 59 tomahawk missiles. unbelievable technology. we have unbelievable talent. but those are tough decisions. those aren't like decisions that i'm going to buy a building. because it's human lives. >> killing people. >> you're killing people. and you can kill the wrong people, too. you know, those things go off and they end up in a town or they end up in a city. and you have another tragedy on your hands, so these decisions e
3:12 am
in terms of the importance, because it's human. it's killing. i hate it. but things have to be done. >> how do you learn that skill who do you call to say what's it like? >> there's nobody you can call. >> did president obama give you any advice that you thought was helpful? >> he was very nice to me, but after that we've had some difficulties. it doesn't matter. words are less important to me than deeds. you saw what happened with surveillance and everybody happened with surveillance. >> difficulties how? >> well, you saw what happened with surveillance, i thought that was inappropriate. >> what does that mean? >> you can figure that out yourself. >> the reason i ask, you call him sick and bad. >> you can figure it out yourself. he was very nice to me with words and when i was with him. but after that, there has been no relationship. >> but you stand by that claim about -- >> i don't stand by anything. you can take it the way you want. our side's been proven very strongly and everybody's talking about it.
3:13 am
i think that is a very big, surveillance of our citizens, i think is a very big topic, and a topic that should be number one, and we should find out what the hell is going on. >> i just wanted to find out, though, you're the president of the united states, you said he was sick and bad. >> can you take any way, you can take it any way you want. >> but i'm asking you. >> you don't have to ask me. >> why not? >> because i have my own opinions. you can have your own opinions. >> but i want to know your opinions. you're the president of he united states. >> that's enough. thank you. thank you very much. >> well, he did bring it up, after all, john, what did you learn about the president in that meeting. >> well, we learned that he still thinks president obama is to blame for surveillance of his campaign, even though the fbi director and others have said there was no support for president trump's previous claim
3:14 am
that the obama administration had wiretapped trump tower. we also have learned to identify when the president has had enough. but after that we traveled to harrisburg, pennsylvania with the president on his plane. he hosted us in his office there and we spoke to him later as we continued throughout the rest of the day. >> one of the things that jumped out at me in the interview was president trump telling you that he would not touch medicare. and that was one of his campaign promises. >> that's right. he said he, during the campaign, he said he was not going to touch medicare, but he has modified or reversed several campaign promises as president, from his position on china to opposition to the export/import bank for example. in this case, members of his own administration, his omb director and health and human services secretary have in the past when they were members of the house supported modifications to medicare. and of course speaker paul ryan does and is trying to convince the president to change his mind. so the president now says as the president, he is sticking with his campaign pledge, he wiot
3:15 am
agree to touch medicare for current recipients or future retirees, he said, except to address waste, fraud and abuse. >> john dickerson, anchor of "face the nation," with the interview everybody's talking about today. thank you. >> thanks scott. john's interview also revealed some confusion about what's happening with the republican health care bill at the other end of pennsylvania avenue. nancy cordes is there. >> pre-existing conditions are in the bill, and i mandated, i said it has to be. >> reporter: in the interview, president trump insisted his party's bill does not weaken protections for the sick. >> one of the fixes was discussed, pre-existing was optional for the states. >> sure, in one of the fixes. and they're changing it. >> so it would be permanent. >> sure. >> that's a development, sir. >> reporter: except it hasn't happened. the latest bill does let states
3:16 am
give insurers options. >> it could affect people with pre-existing conditions. and it will make insurance probably much more expensive for them. >> reporter: in harrisburg, pennsylvania this weekend, president trump pushed his party for a vote. >> and i'll be so angry at congressman kelly and congressman marino and all of our congressman in this room if we don't get that damn thing passed quickly. >> reporter: but that was just after he told dickerson he was in no rush. >> take your time, make it perfect. >> reporter: his chief economic adviser delivered another mixed message on cbs this morning. >> we're going to get health care down into the house. we're convinced we have the votes. >> reporter: that came as a surprise to republican leaders here on capitol hill who have not scheduled the vote, and here's why. scott, cbs news has confirmed that at least 20 house republicans at this point would

they've been to the white house 50 times. in one case, i won't say who, somebody you know very well, the head of a major, major company. i said have you been to the white house before? yes, 51 times. i said oh, good, so you've been to the oval office? no, he was never brought to the office. i said, come on, i'll bring you to the oval office. the person came into the oval office and started to cry. came into the oval office and started to cry. now this is a person with a magnificent office, with beautiful glass walls and everything else. you've seen those offices before. but there is something very special about this space. >> if somebody's going to behave like that in front of you in here, how do you know people aren't just telling you what you want to hear? >> you mean with the tears? >> no, they see the power of the office. and they think yes, mr. president. who tells you no? >> when i have foreign leaders here, no matter what country, no matter how big, we had, as chancellor merkel, they all come
3:44 am
they still take notice at the oval office, and they mean it. >> that's what i mean. one of the worries about a presidency is that everybody tells you yes. nobody helps you figure out where your blind spots are. so how do you find that? >> i guess it's one of those things in life you have to be able to figure out. maybe i've been figuring that out anyway, long before i got here. >> mm-hm. >> but some things you have to be able to figure out. but this is a special place. the white house is special. the oval office, very special. >> any other gadgets you've had installed here since you came? >> well, everyone thinks that this is very ominous right here. see this? these are phones. these are very, you know, secure phones. but this is a very ominous looking, because of the red button. >> what does that get you? >> it gets you a coke, or it gets you a pepsi, one or the other. any other cola companies i should mention, right? but it get

but every time i press that, people, i have fun with people. they'll be sitting down. i changed the way it works. i'll have people sitting here. used to be they never had chairs that anybody can remember in front of the desk. but i've always done this this way and had people here. but usually they would sit on the sofas, but this is the resolute desk, a great desk with a phenomenal history. many great presidents were behind this desk. and some choose other desks. they have about seven desks that you can actually choose, but i like this. it was fdr, ronald reagan. it was kennedy. some great presidents behind this desk. >> george w. bush says the reason the oval office is round is there are no corners you can hide in. >> there is truth to that. there are certainly no corners. you look. there's a certain openness, but there's nobody out there, i've never seen anybody out there as you can imagine. >> but what he meant is it all comes back to you.
3:46 am
>> sure, sure, sure. it does. i think that's true anyway, but that's true. >> when did it hit you, the magnitude of the office, and that idea that you were, regardless of what happened the buck stopped with you. >> it's the bigness of the office, the bigness of the transactions, the bigness of the deals. you look at the order of planes, it's bigger than any order of planes. you look at aircraft carriers that cost $10 billion and $12 billion to build and submarines that cost $5 billion to build. it's the magnitude. but most importantly, you know, the decisions, like when i made the decision to go with syria, the 59 tomahawk missiles, unbelievable technology. we have unbelievable talent. but those are tough decisions. those aren't like decisions that i'm going to buy a building. >> why? >> because it's human
3:47 am
>> you're killing people. >> you're killing people, and you can kill other people, they go off in a town or a city and you have another tragedy on your hands. so these decisions are unbelievable in terms of the importance. because it's human. it's killing. i hate it. but things have to be done. >> how do you learn that skill? who do you call to say what's it like? >> there's nobody you can call. >> did president obama give you any advice that was helpful? >> well, he was very nice to me, but after that, we've had some difficulties. so it doesn't matter. you know, words are less important to me than deeds. and you saw what happened with surveillance, and everybody saw what happened with surveillance. >> difficulties how? >> well, you saw what happened with surveillance. and i think that was inappropriate. >> what does that mean? >> you can figure that out yourself. >> well, the reason i asked you call him sick and bad. >> look, you can figure it out yourself. he was very nice to me with words, but, and when i was with him, but after that, there has been no relationship.
3:48 am
>> you stand by that claim about -- >> i don't stand by anything. you can take it the way you want. i think our side's been proven very strongly, and everybody's talking about it. and frankly, it should be discussed. i think that is a very big, surveillance of our citizens, i think it's a very big topic, and it's a topic that should be number one, and we should find out what the hell is going on. >> i just want to find out, you're the president of the united states. you said he was sick and bad. >> you can take it anyway you want. you don't have to ask me. >> why not? >> because i have my own opinions, you can have your own opinions. >> but i want to know your opinions. you're the president of the united states. >> it's enough. thank you. thank you very much. >> and with that, john dickerson's day with the president came to an end. you're watching the overnight ne
