okay? he s the republican nominee at this point. donald trump briefed foreign adversaries including russia would try to infail trailtrate campaign. obama goes public. october 9th, trump says the reason they blame russia is because they re trying to tarnish me. then he s the president-elect. two weeks before he s sworn in. the intelligence community chief showed him the efforts for russia to try to compromise him. whether it s that or what donald trump says more broadly on twitter and elsewhere, he s just not presenting facts when it relates to the fisa warrant, carter page, the fbi investigation, the special counsel. he s making a lot of connections that facts don t bear out that they exist. back to you. the fact that you weren t able to show the fisa court documents were redacted, yes, but they have never been
