gathering information and trying to use to their advantage. that is different than the narrative used by some democrats that this has influenced the results of the theelection. that i reject. so i think it depends on the scope and agenda. this is washington, and other guests will say other things. there is a political element to all of this. democrats will try to do everything possible to discredit and hurt president trump. i think some republicans will circle the wagons. i think people like john mccain want to get too the bottom of what really happened. and not use this as an agenda against president trump. speaking of other guests, let s go to jessica. democrats wanting a select committee or be a independent commission here on russia, but it will take two to tank ggo he. is it enough to get it done? i m concerned and i think many around the country are concerned that it won t be given the fact that republicans are controlling the senate and the
little word that gabe used here, when referring to democratic members of congress, and there have been members like maxine waters who called for impeachment, gabe you said we re not there yet or quoting democrats. we re not there yet. that is reflective of the agenda. they re interested in frying to destroy president trump. i hope the investigations include the clinton foundation, uranium sales to russia. i hope that that is our next conversation. in the minute i have left here, i want to get to gabe as well as to jessica. thursday and saturday, presidential press conference, campaign 2020 rally, quickly to you, are these diversions from russia? i think certainly, but what it s shown and what we saw yesterday in florida is trump is continuing to campaign and still
mcconnell, who is the republican leader in the united states senate. he said it s very likely there would be some type of investigation into russia, and that gives me great comfort that the other branch of government is looking into something so serious. it is interesting he s making this news when he doesn t have to be making the news by dismissing people who are i guess in his eyes insubordinate. let s turn to you, ginger. because my colleague caught up with a few folks who voted for the president. here s what they had to say about everything that went on this week. you look at what s happening in germany, you look at what s happening last night in sweden, sweden, who would believe this? sweden, they took in large numbers. they re having problems like they never thought possible. so that was obviously president trump talking about an
investigating the old one. president trump denied contacts between his campaign and russia. today white house chief of staff reince priebus echoed that denial. can he say definitively that nobody in his campaign, nobody he s been associated with, had any contacts with any russian agents? no. first of all, the answer is no. and we don t know of any, any contacts with russian agents. i know what the intelligence committees in the house and the sma senate were told by the fbi and i know what i was told and what i will tell you was that story was total baloney. joining me now is chris, ginger gibson and robert tria m trianem. ginger, if the story was total
debtity, adolfo franco, and jessica ehrlich. thank you all for being here. the last time we talked, adolfo, i want to start off with you on this one, so more hope than belief. this is your guy. john mccain is saying that. what is your thought here? is russia the dividing point between congressional republicans and the white house, or will it be something more grass roots like the upcoming tax plan? no, i really think it depends how we approach this russia issue. i absolutely believe as senator mccain has said that there is a role for congress to investigate any type of espionage activities the russians have been involved in. i mean the hacking and so forth. we shoouldn t be surprised that they would be involved in gadha
