Stirewalt: ‘Quite Obvious’ that Trump ‘Cannot Think About Much Other’ than the Russia Investigation

‘He crossed the message about made in America’

RUSH EXCERPT:

STIREWALT: "Let me put even a little finer point on that brush, which is you have the health care legislation, Republicans have a sweep of cuts to ObamaCare that they want to pass in order to pay for it so that they can pay for it next year and prop up the problems for next year. It looked like it was dead. Everybody said it was over and they failed, and then the president had the meeting with the senators and got them around and really sold the law and acted like he cared about it, said that were not just going to pass something but said specific things about the legislation. He looked for a second like maybe this would work. Within the same take come up within very same day, he went out and had the years has a paper he said he hits, paper that he says is so dishonest and failing is awful. That wasn’t apparent you because he invited three of the reporters in the White House, sat down with them, and invented about his own attorney general and reactivated the story about Russian collusion and it went all the way into all of the bad places. He crossed the message about made in America. He crushed the hope that Republicans were able to get this health care law unpacked. He undid all of that because it is quite obvious that he cannot think about much other than this investigation."
