Former CIA head honcho John Brennan didn’t hide the contempt he had for Trump’s comments to Putin about his meddling in the U.S. election.
Here’s what he told F. Chuck Todd this morning:
EXCLUSIVE: Former CIA Director John Brennan says Trump’s refusal to acknowledge Russia’s interference in US election is “dishonorable.” #MTP pic.twitter.com/nkSO08w0Yy

Brennan quotes Trump as telling Putin it was an honor to meet him, and says that it was a dishonorable thing to tell the guy who interfered with our elections.
Of course, there’s still a dispute about what happened. Tillerson said afterward that Trump pressed Putin on it, and they left it at that. Putin’s lackey thug Lavrov said that they spoke about it, Putin denied it, and Trump accepted the denial, saying there’s zero evidence of the meddling.
This morning, Trump tweeted about it and…. settled nothing. All he said was that he pressed Putin twice about it. That’s it. So, as with every story, it’s just gonna drag on and on….
