President Trump: 'US-Russia Relations Are Dangerous Low'


BBC: Trump: US-Russia relations are at 'dangerous low'

US President Donald Trump says his country's relationship with Russia is at a "dangerous low", amid a feud with Congress over new sanctions imposed against Moscow.

Mr Trump approved the measure on Wednesday, despite calling it "flawed".

Russia said the new sanctions were tantamount to declaring a "full-scale trade war".

The law aims to punish Russia for its alleged meddling in the 2016 US elections and its actions in Ukraine.

The Congress (D & R) will do all they can for making the Trump Presidency a failure. For all these politician's a "civilian" (non politic) is a disaster: in case of success, American people could think that the solution for America is to replace all politicians by "civilians".
Same thing with the press: Trump with his tweets is short circuiting the press, that's a bad example for future Presidents and Trump must fail.

Demands for Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe recusal/stepping aside have been building up since it became it known that his wife received campaign money from a Hillary Clinton ally last year. If this Hill/VOX report is true, it is more evidence that the "intelligence establishment" is pushing back on President Trump. The only difference now is that they are very public about it.
