Richardson: Pence ‘Has Done a Good Job... Cleaning up’ Trump’s Comments

EXCERPT:

RICHARDSON: "Well, the biggest takeaway was that the Vice President has done a good job in basically cleaning up the President’s comments that have deeply disturbed our European allies. On the positive side, the statement about the European Union, 28 countries working together, the problem being that the President supported Brexit, supported Britain leaving the European Union, one of the key countries in the Union. Secondly, I was a little troubled on the negative side by what seemed to be almost a linkage on the burden sharing issue, especially as it relates to Germany. Germany contributes 1.3. It should be 2. Look, every president has tried to get NATO to increase. But at a time when we’re going to need NATO in the fight against ISIS, on terrorism, on Iraq and Afghanistan, I think we got to be very careful on that linkage."
