eisen, i start with you. is donald trump anywhere in the ballpark of trying to walk this back while repeating, as you heard me argue, the same fundamental error about who makes the call? >> ari, when i had the privilege to work for president obama in the white house, we had a very strict rule from the president on down. and that is that the white house does not interfere in investigations or prosecutions. he was wrong to bring it up in the campaign. he's wrong to bring it up again and again. he's taking a different position today, but who knows, knowing mr. trump, he may reverse again when his poll numbers start to plummet. so if i were a betting man, i would bet we have not heard the last of this inappropriate and just wrong persecution of your political adversaries. this is for the justice department and the fbi, not for donald trump. >> yeah, i mean, josh, at a level of strategiry and negotiation, he has people seeming to react or pat him on the back for a thing that isn't even his to ex chachangexchange.

i'm sara eisen. >> and i'm wilfred frost. with just one day to go until the next president of the united states is decided. futures are jumping after we got the headline yesterday. the fbi director james comey said no charges were warranted against hillary clinton after a view of new evidence. if the s&p closes higher today, it will end the s&p's longest losing strike in more than 35 years. nine straight down days. the dollar right now is also rallying pretty hard, especially rallying is the mexican peso where the dollar is falling. but the dollar is rallying against the major currencies like the euro and like the japanese yen. the peso has been highly sensitive to developments in the u.s. presidential race. the dollar is higher against the euro and yen following the fbi announcement. a big move there in the peso almost 2% last night. it was more like 3% higher potentially correcting the moves we saw last week. it's unclear whether a headline a few days before an election from the fbi director can do any difference when it co

ambassador eisen, thanks for being with us.ent to have so many business assets, both domestically and internationally, assets that could potentially cause a conflict of interest, is this unchartered waters? >> anderson, it's completely unprecedented in modern american history. and it's perilous, because every one of these business connections poses a potential conflict when cabinet members, lower federal officials, are selected. when policy decisions are made about banks who have loaned hundreds of millions to have dollars to mr. trump's businesses, about international matters, where mr. trump owes money and has business connections. the american people are entitled to know that the decisions he makes are motivated by their best interests, by the public interests, and not by his financial interests. and that's why every president for decades has used a blind trust mechanism. and other similar tools to divest themselves of these interests, roll the interests into cash, then they're hidden by the trustee, so the president does no

iznorm eisen is an expert onwhc >> the president-elect not only has substantial domestic interests that stretch across the united states. he has very complex inturnl interests and relationships that implicate foreign governments. >> reporter: the central issue-- will mr. trump sell off his business holdings and place them in a blind trust, as previous presidents have? the key word is "divest." >> what he tweeted about today it's only separating from operations, not from his ownership interest. no american voted for mr. trump to violate our constitution. >> reporter: after mr. trump's announcement, the office of government ethicses tweeted, "brilliant, divestiture is good for you, very good for america." the ethics office then felt compelled to explain what it was tweeting about was not necessarily what mr. trump has pledged to do but how he can avoid all conflicts of interest. anthony, transition officials tell us mr. trump will still not reas of this process. >> mason: major garrett, thanks. the president-elect is making good on a campaign promise to keep jobs from leaving the country.

with headaches like those, the advice of eisen is not just ethical or legal but practical. for the now, i am mike sacks. >>> we received a comment from kellyanne conway about the off the record meeting that trump had today with some of the national media executives and anchors. a lot of questions raised about kellyanne conway just that i am confident that he is not breaking any laws in the meetings were organized by her. let's get a check of the forecast now. >> we are with shay ryan right now. shay, people woke up this morning and this is what they saw. it is cold for florida. >> for florida, yes. i walk into my garage, which is normally the warmest place in the house and i had to move back inside. >> the mainsail beach inn on anna maria gorgeous outside. plenty of people are walking along in the sand. a beautiful day to bundle up and walk along our beaches because we live in florida. take a look at your monitor at the radar. you can see how dry we are across tampa bay with no rain in sight. as we take a look at futurecast and we move forward by 8:00 at night it is still p

and then i go and watch wilfred frost and sara eisen. don't mean to put those two first, but they everyone joked about it this morning. wilfred joked about it we talked brexit so much. they changed my mind. i've been trying to do either or the whole time because that brexit vote and the polls, well, just basically said pollsters don't know what the heck they're doing. and how discredited are they? thank you to wilfred and sara, a must-watch show because they own the polls and they got brexit, which means you got this. >> yeah. dow at an all-time high surpassing august levels. s&ps would have a little more work to do from here 2172. you'd be looking for something around 2193. >> well, that's why the banks have to do it. because the banks are so big. you mentioned pfizer. pfizer does have to be -- pfizer being emblemmatic of health care, they have to come back. there was a lot of positive commentary today saying health care is not going to get the scrutiny including pieces about might be able to raise price. that's something you never woul

decided to respond to the fbi revooism they were wrestling over how to do it, how to best capital eisen it. they were adamant with donald trump that he needs to let the story play out for hillary clinton. he stayed on message, stayed pretty controlled in the last nine days. but it has been quite a centerpiece of his rallies. he talks about it almost every day. he talks about it as part of a larger narrative. it helped them paint ta picture. it helped them gain more support within the republican party. it's probably a good reason why they are in michigan right now because they were able to find more republicans that come to their side in addition to this jobs message that the campaign says is resonating so well in the upper midwest. so they have certainly used this to their advantage, and i find it to be interesting certainly that the campaign is now trying to paint the fbi as somehow being in the wrong here or potentially not handling this investigation correctly because they were so happy with the fbi for this past nine days. >> i get dizzy from both campaigns changing their minds on h

. >> ambassador northern eisen, thanks for your time tonight. appreciate it. that is all in for this evening. the rachel maddow show starts right now. >> phenomenal harry reid interview. thanks to you at home for staying with us for the next hour. on the wednesday night of the republican convention this summer, you might remember that texas senator ted cruz, in his speech, he did not say the word "trump," while he gave his speech at the republican convention. he, of course, had signed a pledge along with all the other republican candidates, saying he would support whoever the republican nominee for president was, but ted cruz really just could not stand donald trump. and even though he was invited to speak at the convention, he couldn't bring himself to say donald trump's name. the closest he could get was, vote your conscience. and he got screamed at and booed at and he got yelled off the stage. his family had to be, reportedly, escorted out of the arena for their own safety. and then the next morning, with his home state texas delegation to the convention, h

with me, sara eisen and melissa lee. karla and kayla have the morning off. welcome.o our top story this black friday, the trump rally rolling on this morning, the dow, s&p 500, and small cap russell 2000 hitting highs, the averages set for their third straight week of gains. just up fractionally, but we're in record territory so they continue to push higher. not all sectors have joined equally in the rally, but still impressive. and perhaps a good sign that as the shopping season kicks off they're continuing to at least make new highs. >> within today's market action, it's interesting that the utilities are doing very well in today's session, and it's really the standout in terms of leadership. you have to wonder, well, why is that, why are people feeling the need to go for safety the day before this weekend. granted it's light volume. we're also seeing interestingly in germany, the two-year yield on the bund is at its record low. minus 0.76%. so also a bid for safety overseas. >> it's an interesting timing for that because it's happening when our treasury yields are

i'm sara eisen along with david faber and mike santoli. here at post nine at the new york stock exchange. carl has the day off. let's take a look at where we are on the markets. another record day for the major averages. the dow is up a quarter of a percent or 50 points, which means a record high. s&p 500 up 0.2 and the nasdaq little changed. wti crude though off about 1.25%. 47.36 ahead of the big opec meeting next wednesday. >> let's get to our road map this morning, and it starts with, well, where else of course, holiday retail and the pulse of black friday. we're going to take you around the country and as well to retailers bottom line. >> plus, markets in the trump rally, the dow and s&p as i just mentioned making all-time highs. sectors and stocks to watch for the rest of the year. >>> and speaking of the president-elect, a transition day for commerce and a fight to keep a carrier plant in indiana comments, we'll have more on those negotiations. >>> but we start with retail. many stores already opened yesterday on thanksgiving day, b

i'm sara eisen. with me this morning my partner in crime, wilfred frost, staying up past 6:00 a.m.nd en lee. four days to go until the election. new reports this morning that russia or another state agency may try to undermine tuesday's voting. this as donald trump and hillary clinton make their final push into key battleground states. our john harwood is in washington, d.c.. >> we have a three-point race. 47% clinton, 44% trump. donald trump had moved ahead in that poll earlier this week. that indicates things slipping back a little bit toward hillary clinton but not desis live at this point. look at the battleground map. electoral votes, hillary clinton is leading or solid in more than enough states to get to 270 electoral votes if you look at both how she's doing in traditional democratic battlegrounds and some new democratic strongholds. now, how are the candidates deploying themselves over the weekend? this is the time they race around the country. if you look at hillary clinton's final push, you can see that she has got a set of surrogates -- president obama, you've got miche

from the daily beast, abby philip, national political reporter for "the washington post" and norm eisen, former ethics czar for the obama administration and former ambassador to the czech republic. great to have you here. phil, you have been working the phones night and day. what are you hearing from within trump tower right now, where things stand? >> you kind of have to look at this as if there's two camps. what's going on inside trump tower, what donald trump is tweeting about, what you are hearing from his innermost circle is not necessarily wrong. they believe this is a process that's happening at least in their eyes in orderly fashion. but that's different inside donald trump's offices right now than what's going on on the outside. there's a transition team with dozens of staffers right now and we have all seen over the course of the last two, three, four days that is anything but calm, anything but orderly. i think the problem right now and the issue they are having is trying to merge those two camps together. a key point i'm reminded of regularly when i talk to folks, donald tru

jon fortt is back at post 9, sara eisen will join us for the hour along with henry blodget, businessnsider. great to have you. >> great to be here. >> to the campaign trail for our top story. five days to go until the presidential election. new national polls show hillary clinton once again pulling ahead of donald trump as both candidates set their sights on swing states in the homestretch. john harwood is live in lima, ohio weather the latest. >> i want to step back for a minute from this strongly republican county, al lep county where lima is located, to look at the national picture. donald trump has fallen two points behind in "the washington post" poll. if you look at the nbc news battleground map you can see hillary clinton is either solidly or slightly leaning in enough states to get her over the 270 electoral votes she needs to be elected president. now, donald trump tends to do better when he follows the direction of his campaign staff and stays on script. in fact, donald trump yesterday was musing out loud about that. >> we are going to win the great state of florida, and we

. >> so eisen of third to get to talk about how things came together just to get them something thatwas in their room that we are encountering that. so it is just a very interesting i think she had written the book today would not have been as revealing. >> now with the age of twitter a candidate who has emerged through twitter. day for 300 pages of press release in shows a little bit more value are. >> senior white house correspondent with the rebirth of hillary clinton or 2014. you mentioned you are working on a sequel? >> to pick up where we left off we left off sheet is running we believe she is at this time. >> she is running. [laughter] always thinking that shima will lead run added chief govern as secretary of state? does she figure out what went wrong what lessons are applied to this campaign to the narrative bark and the ups and downs of course we will know the answer with the book comes out there where did it all go wrong. >> is out to the early next year and a co-author is wrong side meyer. >> who was he with quick xx was with "politico". >> q rhodesias clinton polarizing

sara eisen is that. >> who are you? >> i'll be cher.i asked you earlier and you decided you'll be a gypsy. you have to pick. choices aren't great. two u.s. economic reports coming up this hour. weekly jobless claims and productivity and costs. the futures this morning up 46 now. and the nasdaq has been pairing its losses. down less than a point even though we had the big selloff. and then s&p i think is just barely above 2100 with a gain this morning. >>> breaking news right now. bank of england just releasing its policy decision and as expected here it left key rates unchanged. that vote was unanimous. the bank also says the brexit vote has had limited impact on the economy so far. the pound was already surging this morning after we got that decision that it is now going to have to go before parliamentary vote. this decision to invoke article 50 leading to bets that will look at a softer brexit versus a harder brexit. the pound up 1.4%. >>> today's other top stories and there it is. the london court ruling the british government must l

sara eisen from the new york stock exchange. a lot on the move this morning after the election. big movers to tell you about. sara mentioned the record low. check out the shares of mexican capped etf. that tracks the equity markets in mexico. lower by 8% at this hour. consolation with the mexican -- with trump being president-elect, there could be tariffs, a wall, a renegotiation. so we are seeing stz down 7.5%. take a look at health care names. bob pisani mentioned the idea that there would be less regulation particularly when it comes to drug pricing. sop we are seeing some of these health care names hold up better. that tracks health care higher. the bioteches up by 4%. on the flipside with the possible repeal of obamacare or aca, hca holdings, these are hospital operators. they are trading sharply lower. bob also mentioned some energy policies which could benefit fossil fuels. the flipside to that, of course, is the negative impact potentially on alternative energy. so we're seeing a crush across the board when it comes to the solar names. consol energy gaining another 8.5%

sara sara eisen is making one of these faces. playing the role with the transports.ook at transports. >> is that a sports thing? >> there is a real potential for double fop you go back to heisman. in terms of trading oil ahead of this i will say that oil volatility index, that is elevated which leads me to believe the down side probably outweighs the potential for upside move. >> it was interesting to see oil prices pop. what stands out to you that the decline is worse day for stocks. >> since the election we are still pretty up. there aren't a lot of things that would make one excited about buying stocks today. mixed noise on retail sales. a lot of discounting out there. things like that make people a little bit weary. i always find something to worry about. the italian referendum, this is the most indebted country in europe about to have a real hiccup. >> how have you not turned gray yet? >> i don't know. good genes. >> do we worry about the italian referendum after brexit proved buying opportunity, trump election proved buying opportunity, both were consensus risk
