Part where McMaster has to physically cblock Miller from having access to Trump before a speech because they are fighting over article 5 being talked about is amazing.
Directly on the Russia stuff though it gets into it in depth, what Trump wants, what Putin wants, what the various administration factions want. Trump loves Putin and dreams so much to be like him so he has to be friends with him.
I don’t think they indicated the administration had any plans to enact the sanctions as required.
Oh yeah and Trump loved the Russian compounds we took away from them so much he thought we should sell them and keep the money because they were valuable. Of course people in administrstion have to fight to the nub to keep Trump and Tillerson from just giving them back despite a lot of alleged evidence they were massively successful spy factories.
Nikki Haley was asked about the implementation of Russia sanctions, or lack thereof, and said something like 'the state department has assured me they've been implemented so I don't know what you're talking about.' Everyone just thinks they can make up their own facts now.
