'Humilation' For Reince Priebus As He Exits Donald Trump's White House | The 11th Hour

>>> I KNOW THE BEST PEOPLE, THE BEST MANAGERS, THE BEST DEAL
MAKERS. I KNOW PEOPLE THAT WILL MAKE US
SO STRONG. I KNOW GUYS THAT ARE SO GOOD.
I KNOW THE GOOD ONES THE BAD ONES OVERRATED ONES.
I KNOW THE BEST PEOPLE WE'VE GOT THE BEST PEOPLE I HAVE THE BEST
PEOPLE. SO WE'RE GETTING THE BEST
PEOPLE. THEY'VE BEEN CALLING MY BY THE
DOZENING. >>> I HAVE GUYS LINED UP BELIEVE
ME. WE'RE GOING TO DELIVER.
WE'RE GOING TO DELIVER. WE'RE GOING TO GET THE BEST
PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. >>> HE KNOWS PEOPLE.
WE FIGURED IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT WE'VE GOT TO LOOK AT HOW WE GOT
HERE AND WHERE WE'VE BEEN. SO WE PUT TOGETHER A GREAT
CONVERSATION GROUP FOR THIS. JOINING OUR CONVERSATION PULL
IT'SER PRIZE WINNING PRESIDENTIAL AUTHOR AND
HISTORIAN BIOGRAPHY OF JEFFERSON, JACKSON, FDR, CHFL.
BOSTON GLOBE COLUMNIST, AND THE CHAIR OF JOURNALISM ETHICS AT
POINTER INDIRA IS WITH US AND LONG-TERM RADIO TALK SHOW HOST
CHARLIE SYKES. AND CHARLIE BECAUSE A MAN FROM
KENOSHA WISCONSIN IS IN THE NEWS TONIGHT BECAUSE HE IS A FRIEND
OF YOURS. I'M STARTING WITH HIM.
START WHEREVER YOU LIKE. BUT A PERSONAL NOTE ABOUTUT WHA
REINCE PRIEBUS'S LIFE LOOKED LIKE THE PAST SIX MONTHS WHAT
HIS DEPARTURE MEANS TO YOU. I'D LOVE TO HEAR YOU.
>> WELL, YOU KNOW I DO THINK OF REINCE AS A FRIEND BUT THE STORY
IS TRAGIC. BECAUSE HE MADE A SERIES OF
DECISIONS, A SERIES OF RATIONALIZATIONS HE ENABLED AND
EMPOWERED DONALD TRUMP. AND EVEN THOUGH A LOT OF US
WARNED HIM THIS WOULD END BADLY. I DON'T THINK ANYBODY THOUGHT IT
WAS GOING TO END IN THIS TORRENT OF PROFANITY, OBSCENITY AND
HUMILIATION THAT -- THAT WE HAVE SEEN.
YOU KNOW REINCE SAYS THAT HE IS GOING TO TRY TO KEEP THIS CLASSY
AND ABOVE BOARD. BUT THE REALITY IS WHEN YOU
WATCH THE TRAJECTORY OF THE FIRST SIX MONTH OF THIS
PRESIDENCY IT'S NOT BECAUSE REINCE PRIEBUS WAS A BAD CHIEF
OF STAFF. IT'S BECAUSE YOU HAVE A
DYSFUNCTIONAL PRESIDENT. EVERYTHING STARTS AND ENDS WITH
DONALD TRUMP AND DESPITE WHAT A GREAT AMERICAN GENERAL KELLY IS
HE IS GOING TO INHERIT THE DYSFUNCTION.
AT THE CENTER IS DONALD TRUMP. BY THE WAY THE BIG QUESTION I
HAVE IS WHAT WAS THE DEFINING MOVE OF THE LAST WEEK OR THE
APPOINTMENT OF GENERAL KELLY OR THE APPOINTMENT OF THE MOOCH,
THE MOOCH WHO IS OBVIOUSLY AN UNHINGED SYCOPHANTIC SOCIOPATH
NOW NAMED THE COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES. HE HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS THE
PRESIDENT'S ID. IF THAT IS THE FUTURE OF THIS
PRESIDENCY I'M NOT SURE THAT GENERAL KELLY WILL BE ABLE TO
TURN IT AROUND. >> I LOVE FRIDAY NIGHTS AROUND
HERE. IT LOOSENS UP THE TONGUE.
JOHN MEACHAM. AS I SAID TO GENERAL McCAFFREY
THE LAUNCH OF A MISSILE TODAY SHARPENS THE MIND AND IT CAUSES
YOU IF YOU ARE AT ALL WORRIED ABOUT SUCH THINGS AND RESPONSE
TO SUCH THINGS TO ASK ABOUT COMPETENCE.
AND IN THE WHITE HOUSE AT THE TOP OF THE MOST FEARSOME ARSON
ALIN THE WORLD. YOU KNOW I WAS TALKING TO A
SENIOR REPUBLICAN LAWMAKER LAST WEEK WHO SAID THAT HE WAS MORE
CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT HE CALLED THE COMPETENCE DEFICIT IN THE
WHITE HOUSE THAN HE WAS EVEN ABOUT RUSSIA.
AND HE WAS WORRIED ABOUT RUSSIA AND THE POSSIBILITIES ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED IN 2016. I DO THINK GENERAL KELLY IS GOOD
NEWS. BUT WE ALL KNOW HISTORY IS MADE
UP OF THE UNEXPECTED. AND EVERY WHITE HOUSE COMES IN
THINKING THAT THEY CAN MASTER EVENTS AND EVENTS NEARLY ALWAYS
MASTER THEM. THAT'S THE WAY THE WORLD WORKS.
AS FAR AS GENERAL KELLY GOES, I DON'T KNOW IF HE KNOWS THE
STORY. BUT EXACTLY 30 YEARS AGO IN 1987
WHEN DON REAGAN WAS ON HIS BAY OUT AT REAGAN'S CHIEF OF STAFF
RONALD REAGAN DESIRED TO CALL HOWARD BAKER OF TENNESSEE WHO
WAS OUT OF TT OF THE HOUSE WHEN CALLED -- THE PRESIDENT CALLED
TO OFFER HIM THE CHIEF OF STAFF JOB.
AND SENATOR BAKER WAS AT THE ZOO WITH HIS GRANDCHILDREN.
AND HIS WIFE SAID MR. PRESIDENT HE CAN'T COME TO PHONE HE IS AT
THE ZOO
