Mehdi Hasan: Trump’s ‘Taking the Word of a Foreign Dictator’ over the CIA and ‘Lying’ to the American Public

RUSH EXCERPT:

HASAN: “This is the guy who said there were very fine people on both sides in Charlottesville. He likes to do a both sides attempt when things go wrong. This is the first time an American president, that I can remember, has done both sides kr — with the CIA. And lying to the public. He’s been saying today he said in a statement that week the CIA hasn’t made up its mind. That’s not true. The CIA said with high confidence they believe mbs, the crown prince gave the order to murder U.S. Resident and Washington columnist Jamal khashoggi. He’s covering up the killing. It’s not the worst thing he’s done but it’s one of the worst.”
