this is john kelly's own approach to it. mbination -- to his credit, john bolton who was then the national security adviser did push back on this phone call, but the point is if you go back to 2017, there was a much stronger group of people. these are very impressive guys, h.r. mcmaster, jim mattis, john kelly. they're competent people like mark esper the defense secretary, but they're not really going to stand up to trump and he's sort of unplugged and we've seen the results. >> what did these generals think of the president overall? because you write about moments that seem like out of body experiences. one has to do with south korea and its capital seoul and meetings the president had repeatedly about the north korea, south korea conflict. trump remarked why is seoul so close to the north korean border. trump was regularly briefed that north korea possessed -- trump saud they have to move, the officials in the oval office weren't sure if trump was joking. trump repeated they have to move. >> i think they just tuned this st

but when he realized that john kelly was then able to track logs of the president's calls and who he was speaking with, trump got annoyed and discontinued the practice and went back with a cellphone. so it's not just his disregard for the security protocols that almost all of his predecessors in the office have adhered to, it's that he appears to be trying to hide much of his communications from his own staff, from his own people. >> this is a problem, rick stengel. you have spent much of your life as a journalist. we use phones a lot, we talk to a lot of people. it's probably a hard habit to break. but this is not random. this is the president of the united states. people before him have gone through this. they've had to be told someone can listen in on your conversations. it's not just that donald trump seems to be conversations that are casual and checking up on friends, but some of the important stuff we need to know about is stuff not done on the white house logs but done like greg miller said to avoid the scrutiny of his own staff but endangering national security as a result.

and he even named two cabinet level people who were going to support that, namely john kelly, the chiefthe 25th amendment requires a majority of the cabinet plus the vice president. so he was going to begin with jeff sessions and john kelly to get the cabinet to vote to remove the president. >> it sounds like he already discussed this with them and had gotten some encouragement on that. i do think people who heard it didn't really take it all that seriously. they took it manufacture as a measure of how unnerved he was by the fact trump was trying to set him up as the person who said fire james comey. and he wanted rosenstein to come out and give a press conference sawing i'm the one who told you to fire comey, which is blatantly untrue. it was the combination and not so much that he fired him but then that he was lying about it and then admitted it was really russia, which raises the whole obstruction issue. >> there's two scenes in this book that are not together but they in our minds come together. rod rosenstein goes into the white house after tremendous pressure and it's been reveal

in our story we talk about how his former chief of staff john kelly tried to urge him to use white househe went back to the residence at night. when he found that john kelly was able to keep logs of his calls, he was annoyed by that, that he reverted to using his phone. he's trying to hide his own communications from his own senior staff. >> if anybody else was doing this sort of thing, wouldn't they be labeled as a national security risk? >> it's such an upside down world that we live in. as long as i've been covering administrations and government and intelligence agencies in washington, i can't imagine a disclosure like this in any other context but this one, in this political climate in which this wouldn't be explosive with the immediate repercussions and consequences. here, the administration reacts with a shrug and the presidents lawyers back in ukraine where -- every cia expert says he's probably surrounded by russian intelligence officers and russian intelligence surveillance capabilities there. >> we just went through an election a couple years ago that was based off of -- or at

this is the frustration that john kelly, his chief of staff, reince priebus, his chief of staff, ransort of control this president and be doing it with the instinct of the rule of law just isn't there. >> let's talk about frustrations and a different frustration from the president. and if you have an alert set for the president's tweets, i mean it's been flashing all day and night for the last week and a half. you see some of them on the screen, just some of the attacks on democrats, nancy pelosi primarily. michael, are we seeing just frustration here, or is this strategy? >> well, it's -- he's a profoundly frustrated donald trump right now, but he's trying to give nancy pelosi a nickname. he wants everybody to call her by this nickname, which i don't think is going to stick. she doesn't carry the same baggage that hillary clinton carried into 2016. he's looking for targets for 2020, so revving up the base, trying to create a person that they can hate. and i think this is a challenge for him because pelosi doesn't have that national standing. republicans have tried to demonize her ov

so these generals, john kelly said publicly he would have served for hillary clinton. so i think a lot of them signed up because of duty and also because of unhappiness with president obama. jim mattis was forced out of office several months early by obama. h.r. mcmaster didn't like a number of things obama had done in terms of not responding to the use of chemical weapons in syria and putting a withdrawal date on afghanistan. so there was a combination of factors why they said yes. >> and you make the point when it comes to foreign policy, president trump has more in common with president obama, what do you mean? >> the rhetoric, both of them come outside of the traditional app rat russ. er not machine candidates and they saw themselves getting elected to get out of the endless wars and obama did that in the end of 2011 and in afghanistan here we have president trump thinking about it. he's gone back and forth. but at the end of the day, they're not sending big conventional armies into the middle east as president bush did in 2003 and they're using drones and cyber wa

former white house chief of staff john kelly tried to limit ju giuliani's reach so he would not interactother white house staff. former administration officials says kelly told others he did not want to be part of calls or meetings with giuliani. the justice department and the white house both declined to comment on the post's reporting. giuliani did not respond to multiple calls and messages, and his lawyer declined to comment as well. with that let's get a check on your weather with nbc meteorologist bill karins who has just returned from a bout of sledding in upstate new york. >> there's nothing like sledding. >> i'm probably the only person who drove two hours to go sledding because the kids didn't have any snow. >> is that all you drove up for? >> i saw my brother and his family as well. >> let's give them credit as well. >> a little bit. >> it's a stay in bed monday morning in a lot of areas of the country. we have a rainy period for two straight days coming from the ohio valley, the east coast. the rain is moving through indianapolis. the rain has snuck up through the coastline, n

that stemmed from the fact there were some figures in the white house like former chief of staff john kelly, former secretary of state rex tillerson, general mattis, who were more traditional, mainstream figures. they were seen as people who were trying to push trump toward a more conventional republican agenda. a lot of those folks have been purged and he has more of a cadre of loyalists now. at the same time, this reporting captures how much the president's political concerns are now spreading into attacks on the larger government apparatus. as he's surrounding himself with loyalists, there's still concerns about who is influencing him and what his doctrine really is. as many of us reporter in d.c. do, i spent the holidays sending encrypted texts to sources. one was saying there's so many voices influencing the president, whether it's rudy giuliani, rand paul, people at his club in florida, conservative media outlets like news max, and i think all this has contributed to a climate where we really can't tell what the president's foreign policy message is. >> anyone who has worked in manage

now, according to the post, former white house chief of staff john kelly and intelligence officials made a concerted attempt back in 2017, to get trump to use secure white house lines. but when trump realized that this enabled kelly to compile daily logs of his calls and the identities of those that he was actually speaking, to trump became annoyed and reverted to using his own cell phone. let's get a check on your weather now with nbc meteorologist bill karins. >>> good morning. we need a nice weekend. two weekends before christmas. a lot of activities going on. last weekend was a mess with the big huge storm. so we have another coast to coast storm, this one is a little bit different. it doesn't have a lot of cold air to work with. with a widespread snowstorm. so you can see how huge it is, though. it is a massive storm. highest impact is going to be in california. as you go throughout the day today, and tomorrow, and then we will take the storm all the way to the east coast by monday, of next week. so here is the timing on this, for this evening, airport problems possible around san f

the post notes that the former white house chief of staff john kelly tried to limit giuliani's reaching his meetings with trump at the white house residence so he would not interact with other white house staff. former administration officials say kelly also told others he did not want to be part of calls or meetings with giuliani. and the justice department and the white house both declined to comment on the post's reporting, and giuliani did not respond to multiple calls and messages and his lawyer also declined to comment as well. >>> joining us here on the set, mbs nbc legal analyst, msnbc legal analyst danny cevallos and we know that giuliani was traveling in ukraine while everything was happening here at home with regards to impeachment and the phone call with the president of ukraine. do you think that these findings that the president is speaking of, that they could help the president, or do you think that they could further implicate him? >> yes, they could do both. and here is why. yes, giuliani's activity in ukraine and in europe is very risky. not just for rudy, but for t

i think it was john kelly who tried to get him to give it up. >> there are a lot of missing concerns.hown how easy it is to intercept a call an an unsecure line in an effort to try to get him to not use his mobile phone. what they decided on after that. that wasn't agreed to. they gave him a hardened cell phone, it's a phone where certain things are disabled in order to make the likelihood of interception less. the key point here is the only way you can secure a phone call is if you secure both sides. so even if trump is speaking from a, quote, hardened cell phone or white house land line, p the other person on the line is speaking from an unsecure line, that opens up the call to interception. you see this in the course of the impeachment inquiry, there's a phone call that gordon sondland made from a restaurant outdoors in kiev to the president during which they discussed pretty sensitive ukraine policy matters that would certainly be of interest to russia and the kremlin. we know that russia has intercepted phone calls of u.s. diplomats in ukraine before. there was a whole scandal ab

and today, john kelly, the former chief of staff, has said publicly that he would trump if you get ament almost two articles, to go to the full house. so, he is running a little bit like iran his real estate company, which isa iran his real estate company, which is a one—man show with a bunch of yes men and women and eight the family members and that is it. did the generals understand trump? i know that matos was nervous that trump might do something crazy with the american military, that he might intervene where he did not need to. but what we have learned society is phobic about military intervention. that is a very good point. he misunderstood trump, in a sense. co nsta ntly misunderstood trump, in a sense. constantly not giving him military options on iran and north korea. china site that jump options on iran and north korea. china site thatjump is pretty relu cta nt to china site thatjump is pretty reluctant to use american power, much more similar to obama than either side would have perhaps like to admit in the sense that trump has felt he got elected to get out of these endle
