with high-speed internet up to 10 gigabits per second. you wouldn t pick a slow race car. then why settle for slow internet? comcast business. built for speed. built for business. coming up we ll dissect more of president trump s epic press conference. first, the president talks fake news. and his role in the war on the press. russia is fake news. russia this is fake news put out by the media. the leaks are absolutely real. the news is fake. because so much of the news is fake. i can handle a bad story better than anybody. as long as it s true. i am not okay when it is fake. i want to see an honest press. the public doesn t believe you people anymore. now, maybe i had something to do with that. i don t know. at one point, i did change to a different company
relationship we expected, the new relationship we might not have been expecting, matthew, a back and forth over nuclear arms with both the president-elect and the russian leader talking in their own way about expanding capabilities? reporter: yes, they re both nuclear superpowers and obviously they ve both been concerns with modernizing their arsenals for various, different reasons, as a matter of fact. it s not clear to me, and, of course, i wasn t party to this conversation, but it s not clear to me that donald trump when he made these remarks was specifically referring to an arms race, a new arms race with russia. it was my impression, could be wrong about this, he was talking in general other countries that want to develop nuclear weapons or build up nuclear arsenals. an arms race with them and the united states could win. certainly from the russian point of view, russia has, you know putin has put to one side and downplayed the significance of those remarks. take a listen what
last week by russian president vladimir putin. vladimir putin wants to restore the framework of bilateral cooperation. key word, restore, and bring collaboration on the international scene to a qualitatively new level. that means more, different, better. interesting to read that. reporter: yes. it was. and i think this, this is totally in line with how the kremlin has been viewing donald trump since early on in his campaign. he was always sort of perceived as being the kremlin candidate. he was always somebody that spoke sympathetically about the russian world view and always somebody that the russian media, you know, supported and the russian media here are controlled by the kremlin and they re a conduit for what the kremlin really thinks, and it all contrasts sfas s starkly, t letter and tone s it, reaching out to donald trump with the way an epic press conference lasting four hours, one of his annual
political staff. and, you know every politician has surrounding them their man or their woman their people. who s their political gate keeper. and those were the people with whom wildstein dealt regularly. bill stepien who like wildstein was kicked out after bridgegate but at the time all this was going on was sort of the go-to man for governor christie. mike duheine, there were phone records released which showed that mike duheine who is the strategist was talking on the phone with christie frequently and also with wildstein frequently. so christie might not have had wildstein s phone number on his cell phone as he told his lawyers, but there were certainly conversations going on in close proximity. we thought it was so interesting as we were going through the assignment today, we were looking at the statement that christie made in the epic press conference. he said i can t recall if i had a meeting with him in my office. the very sort of carefully
