Should have gone up to him and walked up and started screaming in his face. Were living in the real world. Glor all that and much more, right now. Glor good evening. Im jeff glor. And this is our western edition. We are going to begin with our interview with the president late this afternoon. In our conversation at the white house, mr. Trump for the first time in public as president blamed Vladimir Putin directly for meddling in the 2016 u. S. Election. The president had drawn a lot of criticism for not doing that on monday when the two men held a joint News Conference in helsinki. Yesterday, after he returned to washington, he did say he accepts the finding of u. S. Intelligence that russia interfered, but the questions continued. We worked to get more information on all of this, starting with what the president and putin talked about faceto face behind closed doors. You say you agree with u. S. Intelligence that russia meddled in the election in 2016. Yeah, and ive said that before, jeff. I have said that numerous times before. And i would say that that is true, yeah. Glor but you havent condemned putin specifically. Do you hold him personally responsible . Well, i would, because hes on charge of the country, just like i consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. So certainly, as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible, yes. Glor what did you say to him . Very strong on the fact that we cant have meddling. We cant have any of that. Now, look, were also living in a grownup world where a strong statement, you know president obama supposedly made a strong statement, nobody heard it. What they did hear is the statement he made to putins very close friend, and that statement was not acceptable. It didnt get very much play, relatively speaking, but that statement was not acceptable. But i let him know we cant have this. Were not going to have it. And thats the way its going to be. Glor but he denies it, so if you believe u. S. Intelligence agencies, is putin lying to you . I dont want to get into whether or not hes lying. I can only say that i do have confidence in our intelligence agencies as currently constituted. I think that dan coats is excellent. I think that gina is excellent. I think we have excellent people in the agencies. And when they tell me something, it means a lot. Glor coats says the threat is ongoing. Do you agree with that . Well, id accept that. Hes an expert. This is what he does. Hes been doing a very good job. I have tremendous faith in dan coats. And if he says it, i would accept that. I tell you, though, it better not be. E better not be. Glor have you talked to coats since you got back . Yeah i have, sure. Glor what did he say . I just talked, generally speaking. He agrees with the statement you made. And i go along with him. Hes a very. Hes a great guy. Hes a great patriot. He loves his country. And hes only going to say what he truly believes. And the information thats given to him is that. Glor do you think any intelligence agencies, u. S. Intelligence agencies, are out to get you . Well, certainly in the past, its been terrible. Oku look at brennan. You look at clapper. You look at hayden. You look at comey. You look at mccabe. You look at strzok, and his lover, lisa page. You look at other people in the f. B. I. That have been fired, no longer there. Nlrtainly i cant have any confidence in the past, but i can have a lot of confidence in the present and the future, owcause its getting to be now where were putting our people in. But in the past, no, i have no confidence in a guy like brennan. I think hes a total lowlife. I have no confidence in clapper. You know, clapper wrote me a beautiful letter when i first went to office, and it was really nice. , d then all of a sudden hes gone haywire, because they got to him and they probably got him to say things that maybe he doesnt even mean. N t, no, i certainly dont have confidence in past people. You look at whats happened. Tak at allf the shenanigans that have gone on. Very hard to have confidence in that group. Glor on saturday you told us your doctrine is strength, and achieving peace through strength. Right. Glor after helsinki, Lindsey Graham said you showed weakness. Well, Lindsey Graham, let me just glor Newt Gingrich said it was the biggest mistake of your presidency. I totally disagree. I think i did great at the News Conference. I think it was a strong News Conference. You have people that said you should have gone up to him. You should have walked up and started screaming in his face. Were living in the real world. Okay. Glor who gives you the best advice . When you come back and you read all these stories and you say you dont know what the fuss is all about, who do you talk to . I will tell you, i dont know what the fuss is all about. I think we did extremely well. I think the press makes up the fuss, look its fake news. People understand that. I think the press largely makes up a lot of the fuss about a lot of things. Im not talking about one thing. Im talking about everything. Its crazy. You do something thats positive and they try to make it as negative as possible. Not all. And i have to say this, some of sse most honorable people i know, some great people, are reporters, journalists, et cetera. But the level of dishonesty in your profession is extremely high. Glor but we but the press covered the substance and the wording of that press conference accurately. I dont care what they covered. They didnt cover my meeting. Thimportant thing frankly was thing thasted r two d a half hours or st and a half hours. And in that meeting, we discussed many, many things that were very, very positive for both countries. Glor what tangibly emerged from that conversation . What do you feel you achieved . I think we achieved a lot. Things emerged out that were very important. Nuclear proliferation between russia and the united states. Thats 90 of the nuclear weapons. Protection of israel. He feels good about that. I feel good about that. Very good about that. That was a big factor. He talked about north korea. He said he will help. He agrees with what im doing. He thinks im doing a great job h th respect to north korea. El said he would help. I think he will. Lets see what happens. Glor how . You know, they have a lot of border. They have 25 miles of border right on north korea, so having that assurance i think means quite a bit. There were many other things we talked about, but i thought it was a very good. It was about two and a half hours, and i thought it was a very good meeting, very good. Glor how do you think he can help, specifically, on north korea . Well, for one thing, at the border. We dont want anything going in. We hope we have a deal. H,think we have a deal. Theres no rush, to be honest with you. S ere are no missiles going off. We have our hostages back. No testing. Theres no nuclear testing. So weve come a long way in a short period of time. So there is no rush, but what so te is is something we would like to see, the denuclearization of north korea. T feels strongly about it. I feel strongly about it. And thats good. I was not sure how he was going to react to that, but we had a very good discussion, and a long discussion on that. Glor i do want to ask you, sir, you said youd sit with the special counsel before. Has anything changed in the past six months that has made you change your mind more or less inkely to . My lawyers are working on that. Theres no collusion. Be ednt deal with russia. I have nothing do with russia, with respect to my race. I won that race rather easily, and i can tell you that i think frankly, 2020, i think is going to be even better than we did in 16. Or glor are you more likely to sit for an interview now . My lawyers are working on that. Ive always wanted to do an interview, because, look, theres been no collusion. Theres been no talk of russia. Theres been no phone call. Theres been nothing. And its. I call it a witch hunt. Thats exactly what it is. Its a vicious witch hunt, and you know what . Its very bad for our country, very, very bad for our country. Glor all right. Joining me now are our chief congressional correspondent, nancy cordes, and chief white house correspondent, major garrett. Welcome to both of you. So much to talk about. Major, lets start with post helsinki and russia. You were there in helsinki. Talk about helsinki versus today. Reporter well, the cleanup continues. They need a few more mops at the white house, but theyre working on it. The president now says Vladimir Putin is responsible. It cant happen. It wont happen. Hes making his most direct representation to the country that he cares about this issue, holds putin responsible, and is at least, for the first time, decoupling something hes never decoupled before. Whenever he heard collusion, or whether he heard, russian meddling, he said youre calling me an illegitimate president. Hes been urged privately to decouple those. These are two things, you won, and they meddled. Do something about the meddling. Hes moving in that direction. Glor nancy, reaction from capitol hill is coming in on what the president said this afternoon. What is that . Reporter many republicans said he made a mistake in helsinki. It wasnt his finest hour. Hes now admitting that. Lets relax, as ted cruz put it. But democrats think this walkback is disingenuous, incomplete, and probably temporary. And frankly, many republicans will tell you privately that they fear the same thing. Look, in your interview, you asked him, does he think that putin is lying about meddling . He said, well, i dont want to say one way or the other whether hes lying. There are almost no members of congress who would have any trouble at all saying, yes, of course putin is lying, full stop. They wonder why cant this president do the same thing . Glor major, he is trying to reinforce his support for dan coats, the director of National Intelligence now. Why is that significant . Reporter because he undercut dan coats and the entire Intelligence Community in a putign country, standing next to Vladimir Putin. That sent. I dont think its an exaggeration to say shockwaves through the Intelligence Community. Because when the president appeared to give, at least equal ig not more weight to putins denials than his own Intelligence Communitys assessment, that undermined them in a way that he has been told is harmful, not just to his future, but our future relations with foreign governments that helped provide intelligence that led to the indictments that forensically established so much that the russians did in 2016. Glor nancy, beyond it was intwohour meeting, as we mentioned, in helsinki. Beyond what the president says about it, he did say a bit today, and beyond what Vladimir Putin potentially says in the tuture about it, do we ever get more information about what was discussed in that meeting one on one . Reporter well, some democrats are pushing for the interpreter, the american interpreter in that meeting, to come before capitol hill and testify. The chair of the Senate Foreign relations committee, bob corker, says hes looking into that. Most republicans feel it is inappropriate. Shes not a policymaker. And the state department probably wont allow it. But, members do want a lot more details. Reporter and given a chance today, the white house, Sarah Sanders did not rule it out. She was given that chance. She said the state department is looking into it. I thought for sure she would say absolutely not. But she didnt. Glor interesting. Major garrett, nancy cordes, thank you both very much. We will have much more of my interview with the president tomorrow on cbs this morning. And here on the cbs evening w ws tomorrow, the president s thoughts about the 2020 election. He is definitely running. Which democrat would he like to run against . Join us again tomorrow.
