Walk into trump tower and get a meeting with don jr. or jared kushner or anybody. what i still dont understand besides the pattern of lying then remembering, to this day, glenn, the president still wont say a negative thing or broech a negative thing about russia or about vladimir putin and thats been consistent from day one, hell go after anybody for anything. hell go after the pope, hell go after republican members of congress. he will go after gold star families, the one person he does no go ...

Strategy, even though it work and those five people made it happen, it creates a tail wag behind the dog like bad mistakes putting together a pro forma group that was in reaction to media criticism that you didnt have enough people on the campaign. this is unfortunate, thats what happens when you try to run a campaign differently but nevertheless, i think the end of this campaign -- end of this investigation will prove that donald trump had no collusion with russia and the trump campaign was not...

Trump campaign lies about it and found out later. >> once said he never met with russians then admit he met twice with kislyak. members of congress are accusing him of misleading them. >> the constant lying and pretending i didnt remember this person, i didnt know what this persons name is, that makes people question you. >> carter page told nbc news he informed sessions in june 2016 that he was on his way to russia for a trip unrelated to the campaign. never one to miss an opportunity to deflec...

The reporters doing the pretty extraordinary reporting. there are a lot of questions to be answer pd by the trump team, the white house, the legal defense team, including what the president knew about all of this back when he was a candidate and whether there were other meetings. one thing that stuck out at the white house was that sarah public huckabee sanders explained this as not inappropriate as frankly normal behavior upon a campaign, normal sorts of interactions on a campaign. and it just ...
