with ░░░░░░░░ and the Russians Extensively ░░░░░░░░ only before he Was ░░░░░░░░ but while he has ░░░░░░░░ president we would have ░░░░░░░░ been blown away by ░░░░░░░░ And you pointed out ░░░░░░░░ Hamburg Meeting the G20 ░░░░░░░░ in Which the Post ░░░░░░░░ reported he Ordered the ░░░░░░░░ s notes Confiscated He ░░░░░░░░ subsequently of course Had ░░░░░░░░ Helsinki one on one ░░░░░░░░ meeting which by the ░░░░░░░░ Was according to I ░░░░░░░░ very Reliable reports I ░░░░░░░░ heard Personally requested by ░░░░░░░░ Trump The Russians themselves ░░░░░░░░ Said this was not ░░░░░░░░ s idea It was ░░░░░░░░ s idea to have ░░░░░░░░ One on one meeting ░░░░░░░░ still don t know ░░░░░░░░ was Discussed there I ░░░░░░░░ that ultimately the Helsinki ░░░░░░░░ the private Meeting not ░░░░░░░░ the sunny Public comments ░░░░░░░░ come to be A ░░░░░░░░ part of whatever the ░░░░░░░░ investigation finds But to ░░░░░░░░ back quickly to your ░░░░░░░░ about the original G20 ░░░░░░░░ and the dictating of ░░░░░░░░ Statement the next day ░░░░░░░░ Trump echoes Vladimir Putin ░░░░░░░░ talking points For me ░░░░░░░░ a Russia watcher that ░░░░░░░░ been the thing that ░░░░░░░░ been So striking Talking

Here What did President ░░░░░░░░ and Vladimir Putin discuss ░░░░░░░░ are there all these ░░░░░░░░ Of the president trying ░░░░░░░░ Conceal was going on ░░░░░░░░ is going on And ░░░░░░░░ s actually one of ░░░░░░░░ really interesting points in ░░░░░░░░ which is the main ░░░░░░░░ Heads of state get ░░░░░░░░ to Talk is to ░░░░░░░░ up policies and Compromises ░░░░░░░░ have discussions That then ░░░░░░░░ bring back to Government ░░░░░░░░ implement One of the ░░░░░░░░ you go into These ░░░░░░░░ with staff is Sort ░░░░░░░░ there s people to ░░░░░░░░ Up on the work ░░░░░░░░ You know part of ░░░░░░░░ is just So strange ░░░░░░░░ that Donald Trump Is ░░░░░░░░ these lengthy private Meetings ░░░░░░░░ there s no public ░░░░░░░░ about what is coming ░░░░░░░░ of Them You know ░░░░░░░░ re not seeing the ░░░░░░░░ Department leap into Action ░░░░░░░░ afterwards To you know ░░░░░░░░ through on This brave ░░░░░░░░ peace plan that Trump ░░░░░░░░ Putin have cooked up ░░░░░░░░ the two of them ░░░░░░░░ know what we re ░░░░░░░░ is That these conversations ░░░░░░░░ of Appear to happen ░░░░░░░░ some sort of Black ░░░░░░░░ or parallel universe Where ░░░░░░░░ are no fingerprints Left ░░░░░░░░ on the U S ░░░░░░░░ And that s troubling ░░░░░░░░ and of Itself because ░░░░░░░░ sort of have To ░░░░░░░░ that they re not ░░░░░░░░ Of getting together and ░░░░░░░░ About Manchester united s ░░░░░░░░ This year And in ░░░░░░░░ as Susan s talking ░░░░░░░░ one of the things ░░░░░░░░ s Weird is that ░░░░░░░░ re continuing To see ░░░░░░░░ president amplify Obscure strange ░░░░░░░░ talking Points up to ░░░░░░░░ within the Last couple ░░░░░░░░ days we ve seen ░░░░░░░░ president talking about sort ░░░░░░░░ this incredible revisionist History ░░░░░░░░ the Russian Invasion the ░░░░░░░░ invasion Of Afghanistan to ░░░░░░░░ after Terrorists which is ░░░░░░░░ view not Held by ░░░░░░░░ member of the Foreign ░░░░░░░░ historian or Establishment press ░░░░░░░░ I want to know ░░░░░░░░ The big I want ░░░░░░░░ ask you the Question ░░░░░░░░ president supposedly took Possession ░░░░░░░░ his interpreter s Notes ░░░░░░░░ that July 2017 Meeting ░░░░░░░░ Putin Could that action ░░░░░░░░ part of an Obstruction ░░░░░░░░ against the Well he ░░░░░░░░ appears to Me like ░░░░░░░░ s trying to obstruct ░░░░░░░░ counterintelligence Investigation against him ░░░░░░░░ in mind we also ░░░░░░░░ Recently don that the ░░░░░░░░ has Got a counterintelligence ░░░░░░░░ to determine Whether or ░░░░░░░░ he s working as ░░░░░░░░ Russian operative or asset ░░░░░░░░ here it looks like ░░░░░░░░ s Trying to cover ░░░░░░░░ his Communications with the ░░░░░░░░ ve got to say ░░░░░░░░ a lot of Times ░░░░░░░░ ve been on your ░░░░░░░░ And I ve come ░░░░░░░░ with all sorts Of ░░░░░░░░ innocent Explanations for conduct ░░░░░░░░ Trump s associates And ░░░░░░░░ have a lot of ░░░░░░░░ Explaining any innocent Giving ░░░░░░░░ innocent reason for This ░░░░░░░░ It is really hard ░░░░░░░░ explain why The president ░░░░░░░░ the United States would ░░░░░░░░ with an Adversary and ░░░░░░░░ try to hide The ░░░░░░░░ of that conversation From ░░░░░░░░ own government I mean ░░░░░░░░ s really no Explanation ░░░░░░░░ I think you re ░░░░░░░░ that That s something ░░░░░░░░ would be Of interest ░░░░░░░░ the FBI both on ░░░░░░░░ counterintelligence side to Determine ░░░░░░░░ or not he s ░░░░░░░░ with or working with ░░░░░░░░ Russians but also as ░░░░░░░░ Point out on the ░░░░░░░░ side Let me ask ░░░░░░░░ about the Democrats Renato ░░░░░░░░ they re weighing whether ░░░░░░░░ subpoena the president s ░░░░░░░░ is it possible that ░░░░░░░░ Has already spoken to ░░░░░░░░ Person Because one question ░░░░░░░░ is Where are the ░░░░░░░░ I think it is ░░░░░░░░ possible I frankly think ░░░░░░░░ Mueller Should be if ░░░░░░░░ hasn t already But ░░░░░░░░ will say as a ░░░░░░░░ I Want my elected ░░░░░░░░ To look into this ░░░░░░░░ called on Twitter for ░░░░░░░░ House to do that ░░░░░░░░ I was glad to ░░░░░░░░ that Adam Schiff said ░░░░░░░░ he s going to ░░░░░░░░ subpoenaing the interpreter Because ░░░░░░░░ much of what Mueller ░░░░░░░░ investigating may not Reach ░░░░░░░░ public Even if he ░░░░░░░░ a report and We ░░░░░░░░ today the new nominee ░░░░░░░░ he ll make it ░░░░░░░░ the Details of that ░░░░░░░░ could be Classified but ░░░░░░░░ s important For our ░░░░░░░░ representatives Who are going ░░░░░░░░ evaluate you Know whether ░░░░░░░░ not for Example the ░░░░░░░░ should Stay in office ░░░░░░░░ them to have That ░░░░░░░░ and get to the ░░░░░░░░ of this for the ░░░░░░░░ of The country Let ░░░░░░░░ ask you something Susan ░░░░░░░░ President Trump giving Putin ░░░░░░░░ what he wants given ░░░░░░░░ that we have seen ░░░░░░░░ Learned Well it s ░░░░░░░░ You ve seen a ░░░░░░░░ note of Exasperation creep ░░░░░░░░ some of The Russian ░░░░░░░░ There was initial jubilation ░░░░░░░░ Trump was elected Remember ░░░░░░░░ ran a whole campaign ░░░░░░░░ sucking up to Putin ░░░░░░░░ We ll presumably find ░░░░░░░░ a lot More about ░░░░░░░░ that was when the ░░░░░░░░ is issued But Russians ░░░░░░░░ somewhat Soured on him ░░░░░░░░ American Policies have not ░░░░░░░░ Drastically And of course ░░░░░░░░ s also what You ░░░░░░░░ from President Trump s ░░░░░░░░ here inside the United ░░░░░░░░ when confronted with some ░░░░░░░░ the evidence that we ░░░░░░░░ Talking about the president ░░░░░░░░ Continuing public affinity for ░░░░░░░░ His mysterious parroting of ░░░░░░░░ s talking points The ░░░░░░░░ and obscure reasons For ░░░░░░░░ private undisclosed Meetings What ░░░░░░░░ tend to do as ░░░░░░░░ here in the U ░░░░░░░░ Is Well basically never ░░░░░░░░ pay No attention to ░░░░░░░░ president Behind the curtain ░░░░░░░░ just look At the ░░░░░░░░ of his Administration never ░░░░░░░░ the Fact that Trump ░░░░░░░░ is often At odds ░░░░░░░░ that policy And interestingly ░░░░░░░░ hear a Version of ░░░░░░░░ in Moscow as Well ░░░░░░░░ saying well You know ░░░░░░░░ left to his own ░░░░░░░░ would be our best ░░░░░░░░ But he s really ░░░░░░░░ by These evil neo ░░░░░░░░ hawk advisers Inside his ░░░░░░░░ and by The Politics ░░░░░░░░ it here in the ░░░░░░░░ States which they blame ░░░░░░░░ Democrats So in a ░░░░░░░░ we still see President ░░░░░░░░ acting in Concert with ░░░░░░░░ Putin Government You pointed ░░░░░░░░ Trump s latest Comments ░░░░░░░░ the FBI about The ░░░░░░░░ I can t underscore ░░░░░░░░ how I Continue to ░░░░░░░░ amazed and Stunned by ░░░░░░░░ The president of the ░░░░░░░░ States is at war ░░░░░░░░ his own Government with ░░░░░░░░ executive Branch using terms ░░░░░░░░ have Never heard from ░░░░░░░░ president Yes he denied ░░░░░░░░ pressure Today that he ░░░░░░░░ acting as an Agent ░░░░░░░░ the Russian government It ░░░░░░░░ a statement that will ░░░░░░░░ Down I m sure ░░░░░░░░ Richard Nixon s I ░░░░░░░░ not a crook Perhaps ░░░░░░░░ Bill Clinton s Equivocations ░░░░░░░░ what exactly The nature ░░░░░░░░ sex is and is ░░░░░░░░ What is is Right ░░░░░░░░ s what I thought ░░░░░░░░ This morning But it ░░░░░░░░ still let s not ░░░░░░░░ Our sense of shock ░░░░░░░░ dismay That this is ░░░░░░░░ the president Is speaking ░░░░░░░░ the rule of Law ░░░░░░░░ about the FBI in ░░░░░░░░ Country So Garrett we ░░░░░░░░ what The what Mueller ░░░░░░░░ tasked With right The ░░░░░░░░ this investigation And anything ░░░░░░░░ comes up Any crime ░░░░░░░░ comes up So I ░░░░░░░░ just wondering he s ░░░░░░░░ a timeline We gave ░░░░░░░░ timeline at the top ░░░░░░░░ Our show that show ░░░░░░░░ these Things that are ░░░░░░░░ People surrounded by Trump ░░░░░░░░ who lied about their ░░░░░░░░ with Russians Assembling this ░░░░░░░░ of all These interactions ░░░░░░░░ Trump And Putin his ░░░░░░░░ and Russia Also the ░░░░░░░░ Organization So then how ░░░░░░░░ back does this Go ░░░░░░░░ it go back into ░░░░░░░░ Business dealings from long ░░░░░░░░ With Russia to make ░░░░░░░░ sort of Tie in ░░░░░░░░ now How far back ░░░░░░░░ it go It goes ░░░░░░░░ as far as is ░░░░░░░░ to tell the narrative ░░░░░░░░ that narrative ends up ░░░░░░░░ It certainly appears that ░░░░░░░░ deals were part of ░░░░░░░░ We know that from ░░░░░░░░ Michael Cohen guilty plea ░░░░░░░░ the Trump Tower Moscow ░░░░░░░░ was Under way that ░░░░░░░░ president While a candidate ░░░░░░░░ while the Presumptive nominee ░░░░░░░░ the GOP Was out ░░░░░░░░ trying to change The ░░░░░░░░ s policies to soften ░░░░░░░░ toward Russia trying to ░░░░░░░░ Vladimir Putin on the ░░░░░░░░ trail while trying to ░░░░░░░░ business with Vladimir Putin ░░░░░░░░ least according to what ░░░░░░░░ s reporting is while ░░░░░░░░ to give Vladimir put ░░░░░░░░ a 50 million penthouse ░░░░░░░░ Trump Tower Moscow So ░░░░░░░░ is I don t ░░░░░░░░ There s going to ░░░░░░░░ up being a Clear ░░░░░░░░ between where the Trump ░░░░░░░░ deal ends and Where ░░░░░░░░ s collusion with Russia ░░░░░░░░ because it s Donald ░░░░░░░░ himself who has Erased ░░░░░░░░ line might have Existed ░░░░░░░░ the two Now that ░░░░░░░░ said sort of One ░░░░░░░░ the interesting theories That ░░░░░░░░ ve seen come out ░░░░░░░░ The last couple days ░░░░░░░░ the idea That sort ░░░░░░░░ the Benjamin Witus at ░░░░░░░░ fair has been Writing ░░░░░░░░ this That the obstruction ░░░░░░░░ be The collusion that ░░░░░░░░ sort of The way ░░░░░░░░ president has been Trying ░░░░░░░░ stymie the Russia Investigation ░░░░░░░░ the thing that He ░░░░░░░░ doing on Russia s ░░░░░░░░ Thank you all I ░░░░░░░░ your time And happy ░░░░░░░░ to Susan Happy birthday ░░░░░░░░ We ll be right ░░░░░░░░ What makes this simple salad
