Reporter at the first rally of his thank you tour, president elect donald trump revived campaign enthusiasm and added postelection glee. We did have a lot of fun fighting hillary, didnt we . How many times did we hear this . There is no path to things will be much better now. Teased. Dont let it outside of this room, you promise. Reporter and eventually revealed his long pentagon pick. We are going to appoint mad dog mattis as our secretary of defense. Reporter trumps Transition Team decided on retired general james mattis days ago. He is 66 years old and served more four decades in the marine corps and led forces in afghanistan. They say he is the closest thing to general George Patton that we have and its about time. Its about time. Reporter earlier, mr. Trump announced an agreement with carrier to keep open its indianapolis manufacturing plant and preventing roughly 1,000 jobs from moving to mexico. They say its not president ial to call up these massive is leaders of business but i think he is very president ial. Reporter the deal grants 7 ten years and includes mr. Trumps promise to lower Corporate Tax rates and reduce regulations. Companies are not going to leave the u. S. Any more without consequences. Not going to happen. Reporter Vice President elect and indiana golf mike pence provided tax relief to carrier. I think its just the beginning.

And sources tell us that general mattis supports retired army general David Petraeus for that position. He is competing against Rudy Giuliani and mitt romney and tennessee senator bob corker. If petraeus would be selected he would be the third retired general in the trump cabinet or the trump white house. No everyone is happy with the Editorial Board called it a shakedown that will hurt workers and the economy. The New York Times said the possible lass appeal outweighs its practical effect. Bernie sanders told us the deal sets a dangerous precedent.

An extraordinary confrontation between trump and Clinton Campaign strategist shows the bitterness of the election has not faded. The o sidefaced off yesterday at a Harvard University forum that is held every four years. And usually a respectful look back at the campaign, but the meeting descended into a shouting match, according to the the washington post. Nancy cordes was there at nancy, tell us all about it. Reporter the most contentious moments 90 minutes into the session as the trump aides describing the brilliance of their ceo steve bannon and too much for the Clinton Campaign and Clinton Communications director Jennifer Palmieri started to push back and calling out the white house chief strategist was not at the meeting when she called is times you know and now youre just lying a couple of hours later at his indiana rally, donald trump denounced the altright nationalist movement. At this forum, both sides accused each other of focusing too heavily on their negative campaigns and the clinton folks were particularly sore about the Media Coverage of clintons private email server with palmieri saying it will go down as the most grossly overrad and overcovered and most destructive story in all of president ial politics. Gayle . Nancy, thank you. The president elect senior transition adviser Kellyanne Conway is on the campus of harvard where the event took place. Good morning. It sounds like quite a night gayle. It was very spirited. I think the audience learned a lot about the election from the mechanics and messaging point of view and, obviously, some of these feelings are still raw. I think most people are not prepared for donald trump to become the next president of the united states, and you had a group of professionals and later robbk and i discussing what went on in the hardfought campaign. Reporter we heard you were accused last night of giving a platform to white supremacist. Do you think that still exists and is the campaign concerned about that . Well, its not a fact. Its just completely false. And that is why i asked jen palmieri, Communications Director for hillary clinton, if she would look me in the eye and tell me i ran a campaign that would allow that. She had yes, she would. Well, and that is unfortunate. I took that personally and i know its not true, gayle. And, you know, president elect trump has denounced every single he doesnt ask for their endorsement. He denounced ontherecord interview with the New York Times last week. I think some people are stuck in the permanent cign and ought to realize that donald trump won 306 electoral states and counties that president obama carried are in the donald trump column. It tells you people across the america were attracted to his message and his message of growth and patriotism and better trade deals. What happened just yesterday . Thats what president s do just yesterday. President elect trump and Vice President elect preence wednesd to indianapolis and announced carrier would keep a thousand jobs in indianapolis that were thought to go to mexico. Leaders make good o their promises and keep american jobs in america. To boost the economy . But that is a false characterization. During those talks which were very genial between the carrier and ceo and president elect trump and Vice President elect trump were talking about Work Together. Has Rudy Giuliani been told he i nso longe a contender and are you widening the search for secretary of state . I wont divulge private conversatis that havent been made public but i will tell you, gayle, that decision has not been made by the president elect. He will make that ultimate decision as to secretary of state. Its a very important decision, as are off the senior posts and senior staff appointments. A number of qualified men and women to hold that post and the president elect and vice people and not rushing through such an important decision. Major garrett is reporting this morning that general mattis who is mr. Trumps choice for defense secretary supports petraeus as secretary of state. Do you think that will weigh productive and constructive meeting and i know the president elect was impressed with that meeting witenerh g petraeus and it weighs in the Decision Making fox can see they can Work Together whether an Economic Team or National Security team or other advisers in the cabinet or elsewhere, norah. We know who makes the ultimate decision here and its donald trump. But it does matter to him to take the counsel of these people whoever he trusts to be in his cabinet. You suggested earlier that donald Trump Supporters would feel betrayed if mitt romney got the position of secretary of state. Do you still feel that they feel what i was reflecting was the just breathtaking backlash that i was seeing and hearing in private communications, so th for the post, mitt romney . As we have publicly said, there are four people, as of yesterday, who are in contention for secretary of state. That list may expand or the list may narrow. I mow the president elect will make his choice public in due course. We will see if due course is next week. Kellyanne conway, thank you for joining us this morning. Thank you for having me.
