We re back with more on the politics lead. president trump s defense of his son meeting with a russian government lawyer, that s what he thought anyway went global today. let s start by playing some of what president trump said during his news conference today when asked about this issue. i think from a practical standpoint, most people would have taken that meeting. it s called opposition research or even research into your opponent. i ve had many people i have only been in politics for two years, but i ve had many people call up, oh gee, we have information on this factor or this person or frankly hillary, that s very standard in in politics. now, as a matter of fact, what the president described is standard in politics, but coming from the russian government, that is not standard in politics, angela. it s not standard in politics, in fact, you ve heard president trump supporters frequently over the last day or two cite an example of a dnc consultant meeting with a ....
