Linzie, thanks very much. The latest on the trump trabant. The president elect making key appointments to his Economic Team as 13eklation swirls around mitt romney as secretary of state after that intimate dinner last night. Story. Good morning, jon. Reporter good morning, george. It must have been quite a dinner. After a gourmet meal at one of the restaurants in one of trumps buildings here in new york, mitt romney who once called trump a dangerous fraud and a phony emerged to praise the president elect as someone with an inclusive message who will lead america to a brighter future. The longtime rivals were greeted with applause as they entered the pricey french restaurant inside the Trump International trumps new chief of staff Reince Priebus in tow. Garlic soup with sauteed frog legs. Prime sirloin for trump, lamb chops for romney. Romney called trump a fraud during the campaign. As a potential secretary of state. I happen to think that americas best days are ahead of us. President elect trump is the very man who can lead us to that better future. Reporter but there is serious opposition to romney the former Massachusetts Governor isnt the only option on trumps radar. Another contender, tennessee senator bob corker, also met with trump about the job on tuesday. He needs to choose someone hes very comfortable with that he knows theres going to be no daylight between him and them. Reporter trump is quickly filling up other cabinet posts including his first Major Economic appointment. Treasury secretary trump is expected to tap his Campaign Finance who spent 17 years working for Goldman Sachs. Former Bush Administration labor secretary elaine chao is expected to head the transportation department. Chao is well known on capitol hill as the wife of senator Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell but as his cabinet comes together one trump advocate is chiding the president elects continued use of twitter. Newt gingrich criticized him for states cant randomly tweet without having somebody check it out. It makes you wonder about whatever else hes doing. Reporter tomorrow president elect trump heads to indiana to begin what his team is calling a thank you tour. Hell start with a big announcement, a deal to keep a factory operated by the air Conditioner Company carrier in indiana. The company had planned to move the facility and its 1400 jobs to mexico. But, george, details of what carrier was o of incentives to keep that factory in end that have not been revealed. Governor mike pence working on that. More with matt dowd about that we dont know all the details but likely to save 1,000 jobs. Pretty big win for president elect trump. Its a win. People in the midwest think nobody has advocated for them. If donald trump gets the win its a big deal for him. The question as jon says, what did he have to give away and the public courtship of mitt romney and donald trump right now. Pretty remarkable given what romney said during the campaign. But its not a done deal yet. No, its not done and i dont think anything is done with donald trump until its formally announced. The reversal is stunning. The degree of difficulty on this dive for mitt romney is more than a 4 1 2 reverse somersault with a tuck position. Its greater than that and i would think it would make more sense for jim harbaugh to go to work state buckeyes as an assistant coach than this move mitt romney is making. A reversal for both. Trump called romney entirely unimpressive. And a loser and romney called him a fake, a phony, a fraud and con man. What romney did not do is apologize. The question, is that required in trumps mind . We dont know the answer to that yet president elect on twitter early this morning. Several different tweets including one that could be very significant saying that on december 15th he and his children will have a press going forward. He says it will be a big press conference. The kids will be there. He says it will be him removing himself in total from his company. Interesting, several tweets on this, one says i feel as visually important as president to in no way have a conflict of interest with nye various businesses. If he turns the company over to his children, as he has said before, ivanka trump is a big part of that. Ivanka trumps husband Jared Kushner is i am told going to b wing with president elect. Devil in the details on this. Well watch that press conference. The fascinating thing were getting more information on him from twitter than press conferences. The way hes communicating right now. Over to robin. Now to charleston, south carolina, where Police OfficerMichael Slager is on trial for a fatal shooting. He took the stand on tuesday breaking down during his testimony. Abcs Steve Osunsami is there in charleston with the details and reaction. Reporter good morning to you, robin. This case could go to the jury today. We could hear closing arguments this afternoon. Michael slager didnt have to testify. But he clearly wanted to tell his own story in his own words. At times he was tearful. My family has been destroyed by this. The scotts family has been destroyed by this. Its horrible. Reporter former North CharlestonPolice OfficerMichael Slager was here on the witness stand trying to convince jurors hes not a murderer saying that he killed walter time he says he felt threatened. And at that point i made the decision to use lethal force because mr. Scott never stopped, hes always dangerous. Reporter but prosecuted asked how dangerous could scott have been as he was running away from the officer unarmed. They even made slager stand up and hold a tape ruler to show how far scott ran before slager started firing. It was 18 feet. I didnt know what was going firearm until the threat was stopped. Reporter shortly after the shooting slager told investigators he thought scott was running away with his taser. On the witness stand he said he now knows thats not true. That it fell to the ground. Slager says the two fought over the taser in a struggle that happened before the cell phone recording. But he had trouble explaining what hes seen doing here. Picking up the taser from one location and moving it closer to scotts body. I dont know why i dropped it on the ground but i did pick it up seconds later. Gear . I cant even answer to that. Reporter lawyers for scotts family says it looks to them like slager was planting evidence. You always wonder why exactly did he run back and pick it up . And then actually drop it by mr. Scotts dead body. Reporter it is possible the court could take a field trip to the crime scene today. Slager is pleading not guilty. If he is convicted he could get up to life in prison. Michael. To that devastating plane crash with the Brazilian Soccer Team on board. This young fan is mourning the loss, six people miraculously made it out and david kerley has more and theyve recovered the black boxes. Reporter thats right, michael. Yes, they have the black boxes but the question this morning is, the true reported an electrical problem. So do those boxes stop recording information that could solve this mystery . Having pulled six survivors from this crash scene, teams recovered 71 bodies of those who did not survive. And the black boxes which could answer why the commuter jet crashed taking a Brazilian Soccer Team. Stunned fans overnight holding a vigil. The shock seen on the face of one of the youngest fans and two injured players who didnt make the trip to the teams first ever finals. The jet was headed to the medellin airport which is surrounded by mountains. Abcs Steve Ganyard has flown colombian military. Even at daytime it is a sporty place. Rugged terrain and oftentimes weather and high altitude. Reporter the pilots reported an electrical failure and an emergency before the aircraft tail hit a mountain and the rest of the jet slid down the other side. But how did those six people survive . The wreckage will help provide the answer. Increasing the odds of survival, those sitting within five rows of an exit and passenger aisle fare better than those in window seats. Theres no way to game it and say if i sit in the front the back will hit first. It depends on the mishap. Every mishap is a little unique. Reporter odds already on the fliers side. More than 95 of plane Crash Victims survive. In fact, a professor who studies this says you have a better chance of becoming president of the United States or winning an olympic gold medal or a nobel wow. I have one question for you. Why is it better to sit in an aisle than a window seat. Reporter its because if something happens and you do go down you can move quicker to that exit and get out than somebody who has to move two seats, get to the aisle and get to the exit. All right, david, makes a lot of sense. To amy with the mornings other stop stories starting with the Big Development in that escape from the california jail. Thats right. As you might imagine people have been on edge around san jose for a week now but overnight we escaped last wednesday has been captured nearby.
