severe. steve mnuchin called it a very significant accomplishment for president trump before president trump himself backed away from the idea. so i can t speak to internal white house thinking on this particular matter. again, i m glad where the president ended up. but where the spirit of the president is on this, having addressed the election meddling with vladamir putin and going into place where is i think he was able to get more constructive agreements like the syrian cease-fire, there is a desire from the president to find areas where we can work together with the russians. but on the cyber security issue, i don t think that s one of them. matthew, does it make any sense that the u.s. would want to work with russia on cyber security and do you see president trump s meeting with vladamir putin as the president standing up on the issue of hacking? so i think the problem with this general term of cyber security is that it lumps two things together. one is attacks that happened
two days after his meeting with vladamir putin, president trump announced his plans to work with russia on cyber security. the president tweeted putin and i discussed forming a cyber security unit so that election hacking and many other negative things will be guarded. the president faced a swift backlash from members of both parties. it s not the dumbest idea i ve ever heard, but it s close. we might as well mail our ballot boxes to moscow. i am sure that vladamir putin could be of enormous assistance this that effort, since he s doing the hacking. others took to twitter. ben sasse wrote, this should not happen and will not happen. why the president of the united states will tweet it is bizarre. republican senator marco rubio tweeted, partnering with putin on a cyber security unit is akin to partnering with assad on a chemical weapons unit. after the criticism about 13 hours later, president trump walked back the idea with a tweet, the fact that we discussed a cyber security
but on the cyber security issue, i don t think that s one of them. matthew, does it make any sense that the u.s. would want to work with russia on cyber security and do you see president trump s meeting with vladamir putin as the president standing up on the issue of hacking? so i think the problem with this general term of cyber security is that it lumps two things together. one is attacks that happened to use signer mechanisms on critical infrastructure. you could count in that our lector call mechanisms, you could count the power grid, our financial infrastructure and military systems that now defend on networked capabilities. the other thing that s essentially constant signer probing, espionage, gathering of illicit information, which isn t per se an attack. when it comes to the former, direct attacks on critical infrastructure, there s not really a kind of beat the russians at their own game solution. this is something where at the end of the day, and we ve known this for deca
of putin suggesting and trump even considering, let alone mentioning in public, this joint cyber security task force. you re on armed services. it always struck me that if it had been kinetic warfare, if someone had fired so much as one shot by way of the cyber warfare that had been committed, we d maybe treat it with more urgency and be better at our defenses, at countering it. so what do you make of that? what i make of it is an a president that really doesn t understand cyber security and cyber issues and seems to be in denial that russia actually hancked, broke the law in the united states, used that information as a weapon to interfere with our election. the fundamental democracy of this nation was attacked. it is a very serious problem.
