EXCERPT:

BRZEZINSKI: "And a Fox News host who wished Mr. Putin could be president of the United States for just 48 hours, that way Americans don’t have to worry and wake up in the morning fearful of a group that’s murderous and horrific like ISIS, are you serious?”
PETERS: “Right. And guess who that was? That was Kimberly Guilfoyle who Trump considered for at least a short time for a position in his press shop. There’s this consistency of belief there among a certain strain of conservatives who felt that Putin could really do no wrong as long as he made Barack Obama look weak and emasculated.”
BRZEZINSKI: "Or felt they needed to say whatever they needed to say to suck up to Trump. I mean, I don’t know, either one. That’s unbelievable."
