McCain: ‘There’s No Moral Equivalent’ Between Merkel and Putin

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "Speaking of Vladimir Putin, in his 'Times of London' interview it appeared that Donald Trump put both Vladimir Putin and Angela Merkel on equal footing going into the White House. How do you react to that?"
McCAIN: "I just hope that the President-elect will listen to people like Mattis and Flynn and Kelly and a lot of the good people that I’ve known for years around him who clearly do not share that view. And my conversations with Mr. Tillerson, he doesn’t share that view either. There’s no moral equivalent. Vladimir Putin is the guy that has sent airplanes with precision weapons to strike hospitals in Aleppo, killing thousands of innocent women and children. He’s a thug and a butcher."
