really talented foreign policy representative for our country. i will say, though, in this meeting if it wasn't nefarious in any way and no one is making that leap, but the president again it might have been an inattention to detail, a lack of care for the way things are done but president trump exposed himself and our country in that meeting by going in there without a translator on our side, by going in there privately and now leaving putin with his own ability to translate what happened in there. he exposed himself. he does it all the time. and you wonder what he's thinking. up next in the word of one republican senator, quote, it's an insane process. "the washington post"'s bob costa explains how mitch mcconnell lost the health care fight and alienated his own members in the process. that's ahead on "morning joe."
