McFaul: Putin Wants ‘Revenge’ Against Hillary; He Thinks ‘She Intervened in His Election’

RUSH EXCERPT:
MCFAUL: "You know, I think it's two things. One is revenge against secretary Clinton. Let's remember that Vladimir Putin thinks that she intervened in his election, the parliamentary election in December 2011. And has said as much publically. I heard him talk about it privately. Number two, president-elect Trump supports a lot of foreign policy positions that Vladimir Putin supports. You just played several of them in your clips. Right? So it's very rational in my view that he would rather see President-Elect Trump be the next president of the united States instead of secretary Clinton. Now, I want to add one thing here. Sometimes people jump to the conclusion that this was somehow coordinated with president-elect Trump. I don't believe that for a minute. But did the Russians take some actions to try to help him? I think the evidence is circumstantial enough that we really do need this bipartisan, independent investigation that others are calling for."
