Priebus: Nothing Wrong with ‘Trying to Have a Good Relationship’ with Russia

‘ that’s what the president is saying, that he is going to have good relationships around the world that will put America first’

WALLACE: "Well, I want to ask about that, because he said yesterday in which he said that we want to have better relations with Russia.  I mean, if he accepts the fact that they, in an unprecedented way, tried to interfere with our election, does that mean he is not going to respond, he’s not going to take action against Russia? " 
PRIEBUS: "He very well, he’s going to order the intelligence community to make recommendations, and whatever those recommendations are will be discussed and actions may be taken, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with trying to have a good relationship with Russia and other countries around the world.  And that’s what the president is saying, that he is going to have good relationships around the world that will put America first, bring jobs back and make a safer across the globe.  That’s what he wants to do and I think that’s what he will do."
