Will vladimir putin be my best friend? will he come? he started saying all these flattering things about putin for all the years leading up until the 2016 campaign. so, i think hes always had this idea of doing business with putin. hes also had a psychological affinity for putin as some sort of strong man who he wanted to emulate. but i think ben is exactly right. by dealing with putin secretly in that point in time, he gave putin the signal that he was ready to do under handed business with put...

Any involvement with saudi arabia and whether its driving his response to the killing of the journalist jamal khashoggi. this as adam schiff, the chairman of the committee, also wants to look into any ties the president or his organization had with russia. schiff made it clear that saudi arabia, too, would be part of the committees investigations. >> what is driving this, i dont know. whether this is simply an affinity that he has for autocrats, he seems to choose them repeatedly over his own in...
