Side of donald trump, against the fbi and other intelligence organizations. traditionally, they have been supportive of those kinds of organizations. for fear of losing their seats, they have been backing president trump. now, hes beginning to be a liability, perhaps, in the wake of pennsylvania, it may be they continue to start desserting him before november, 2018. >> no doubt, another friday night firing that has a lot of new questions that are being raised, thank you for your time today. >> t...
