Career. I remember thinking to myself this is happening again . Leading to the blockbuster allegations that helped cost roger ailes his job. Why shes coming forward and telling her story now only on gma. A hero brothers splitsecond decision. The 9yearold rushing in to save his baby brother from this terrifying fall. I just ran and i caught him but i cant even carry him so i dont know how that happened. The scary close call and what his mother is saying parents. . And, good morning, america, happy thursday to everyone. Mike, i think we have a kid who has a future in pro football. Fast. That kid deserves a Christmas Present of all Christmas Presents and any time his younger brother acting up when he gets older say lets go to trump tower. Seen all kinds of vips heading in. No one knows whats going on behind those closed doors. Donald trump keeping his own counsel. But take a look at this. Boxer Floyd Meriwether with donald trump jr. And president elect and well hear from Kellyanne Conway, trumps Senior Adviser in a little bit. But first Hillary Clinton giving her first speech since conceding to donald trump opening up about that defeat. Her disappointment and determination toe details. Good morning, david. Good morning, robin. Hillary clinton has often said when she gets knocked down, she gets right back up. Well, here she was one week after this stunning upset addressing an event for the Childrens Defense Fund downhearted but unbroken. I will admit coming here tonight wasnt the easiest thing for me. It was her first appearance after conceding that long bitter race. There have been a few times to do is just to curl up with a good book or our dogs and never leave the house again. Reporter clinton lost the election but won the popular vote, more than a million votes ahead of donald trump. I know many of you are deeply disappointed about the results of the election. I am too. More than i can ever express. Reporter by the time all the votes had been counted she may well have earned more raw votes than all but onef exception, barack obama, clinton urged her supporters not to be discouraged. Stay engaged on every level. We need you. America needs you, your energy, your ambition, your talent. Thats how we get through this. Reporter her primary opponent, Bernie Sanders is doing just that. Speaking last night at a separate event, he called trumps new chief strategist a racist. I call upon mr. Trump to made of mr. Bannon, a president of the United States should not have a racist at his side, unacceptable. Reporter for her part clinton steered clear of any direct attacks, instead, she spoke from the heart. I know that over the past week a lot of people have asked themselves whether america is the country we thought it was, but, please listen to me when i say this, america now clinton did not say what her own plans are moving forward and had accepted this invitation to speak at the Childrens Defense Fund long before election day. Probably hoping it would be a different sort of speech, george. That is an understatement. Thanks very much. The latest on Donald Trumps transition. The president elect focusing on National Security meeting with Henry Kissinger and possible contenders for secretary of state amid new reports that his soninlaw may take a prominent position in the white house. Martha raddatz is tracking that Jared Kushner report in the wall street journal he may come into the white house in ta forml position but may be legal questions. Hes been extremely influential and could take a white house job with sources telling abc news hes currently looking at options but it would clearly be in some sort of Senior Adviser role and the trump team has asked that kushner get a security clearance during the transition which makes complete sense bec discussed. Now, there are federal nepotism rules for federal agency, but that may not apply to the white house. Either way it would be very doubtful kushner would take a salary, george. Also on this National Security front theres talks about maybe having general Michael Flynn come in as National Security adviser, the president elect meeting with Henry Kissinger today, also nikki haley who is maybe coming on the list as secretary of state, as well, the governor of South Carolina. Reporter exactly, he is meeting with governor nikki during the campaign, youll remember. She is under consideration for secretary of state. It is a big day for National Security. Hes announcing transition landing teams for defense and the nfc which will liase with teams and with Henry Kissinger also a sitdown with the head of the National Security agency and the first facetoface with a foreign leader, Prime Minister sh during the Campaign Trump said he thought allies should pay their fair share when u. S. Forces are protecting them. So that could be a lively discussion, george. Certainly will, martha raddatz, thanks very much. We have a lot to talk about with our political strategist and abc contributor Kristen Soltis anderson. She joins us now, good morning, kristen. Good to see you this morning. Good morning. Kellyanne conway just showed up. All right. Did you get stuck in traffic . Was that it kellyanne. Moment. Good morning. Well talk to kristen first. Lets go back to the remarks that Hillary Clinton made last night. What do you make of that and where does she go from here . Well, she certainly is disheartened. If youve been preparing your entire life to be the president of the United States, when its finally kind of taken away from you its got to be absolutely heartbreaking. Theres a lot of folks in her party that still have not come around to accepting the result of this election. Theres a lot of healing to be done. I think she can play a really big role in getting some of Productive Work they can still do moving forward. Well talk to kellyanne about the transition going on with president elect trump. Chris christie and those associated with him have been phased out. What kind of message does that send, do you think . You know, i think right now a lot of folks within the Republican Party are excited to have control of the white house, but there are some who were critical of donald trump not necessarily big fans of his waiting for some signals about i think getting rid of lobbyists on the Transition Team and putting in place bans on having folks go and lobby after being in the administration is signal that hes going to do the draining of the watch but by bringing in someone like nikki haley would be a signal to those skeptical of him theres still room for them in a Trump Administration too. It would appear that way. Kellyanne conway here right now. We all feel your pain, hard time getting around manhattan these days. The secret service and donald trump but thank you for coming in. A little bit and reports this morning that Jared Kushner now considering taking a formal role in the white house. The ethics chiefs for both president george w. Bush and president obama say thats illegal. I talked to Jared Kushner this morning again. He said he has not applied for any formal role nor a National Security clearance but at the same time he will continue to be important to his fatherinlaw who happens to be the next president. Jared was incredibly important to our Campaign Effort and to adviser of his fatherinlaw. That wont change. All the Adult Children and inlaws. Is he considering taking a formal job inside. Hes not applied for that and he lives here and runs a pretty significant business here. There are three small children here so its an important decision that many of us face, frankly, but he has not applied for anything formally. I think many of these press reports are false and inaccurate and i would just call on everybody to just give us a little bit of time to form our federal government. Get those appointments in place job. Its clear the president elect values him. Does he want him to be in the white house . Well, he wants him to be an adviser to him which he will continue to be. Hes also his soninlaw so hes family and thats really what we should focus on. I know the bush sons were very involved in their fathers administration, one became president of the United States. They both became governors, so we would harken back to that as well. Its a very special relationship and very few have the ability to serve as president and, of particularly Adult Children will be supportive of that. Will you join the white house . I may. I dont i didnt see mother of four small children in any of the job descriptions that i checked out. Im sure your viewers can relate but its been such a privilege and an honor to be Donald TrumpsCampaign Manager and to work with my old friend and client mike pence our new Vice President and i want to go and serve and best and highest use and still discussing that. Im not a priority today at 5 00 p. M. , mr. Trump and mr. Pence will be minister abe from japan and were being very respectful and deferential to the circumstance that president obama is still the president. These have to be less formal and already have a commander in chief and hes on his last foreign trip and would like to show the respect to Prime Minister abe but show the respect to president obama at the same time. Talking about working with the president elect. Chuck schumer, leader in the senate, elizabeth warren, senator Bernie Sanders all saying if donald trump focuses maternity leave, reforming trade bills, they can build bipartisan coalitions. Is that the direction he is going to move in. Yes, were thrilled to hear that. Donald trump made very clear what his first 100day plan will be. Everybody can pull it up and see and it includes infrastructure and job creation and a different direction for health care for some americans and it certainly includes trying to reform our immigration system and to get a little bit more robust in de terrorism around the world. Im happy to hear that from the senators and i think that spirit of cooperation where divided government has been an excuse for too long, i think that was reflected in what Vice President biden said yesterday to Vice President elect pence which is we had a great productive conversation. The Vice President said, quote, im confident that the government is in good hands with trump and pence and then he said that no administration is formed this early on. You have to give it time. We dont really want to rush through these decisions. Right. Kellyanne conway, thanks very much. Thanks for having me. Thank you. Now, lets turn to ginger. May not feel like winter in new york but its coming. Im looking at that picture and i think youre giving us a hint. A slight hint of whats to come. It is not just a flake of snow but 10 inches for snoqualmie, washington.
