. >> mark leibovich is chief national correspondent for "the new york times" magazine and a cbs news political news contributor and joins us from washington. let's talk about this extraordinary public display of infighting in the trump campaign over who to choose for secretary of state. were kellyanne conway's remarks about mitt romney, were they sanctioned or is trump angry with her about making those? choices. i think the more interesting -- i think what is entirely likely here, given how we have seen the trump team operated is that donald trump is essentially telling her to go out and make public statements that would denigrate one of the candidates in a way to sort of add drama to the process, but also to if he ultimately picks mitt romney, they could see more, you know, magnanimous in a way. it's unclear what mitt romney's role in all of this and what he knows and why with it. >> do you believe that kellyanne conway would not be speaking out to publicly if she thought it would be upsetting to donald trump. you're saying that, correct? >> yes. my sense somewhat unlikely especiall
