Once again, he refused to respond to whether he would welcome outside interference in our elections. Unfortunately, reporters only get one shot and the questions are swept away. Other reporters do not do the necessary "follow-ups" to get a reasonable response.
Also, he was asked about the firing of the DNI and the replacement of him with an ambassador with no intelligence experience. He said that the DNI was leaving March 11th anyway. He didn't say what our intelligence agencies were to do between time?
He also commented on the "inappropriate" comments by Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor. He thought the women Justices should recuse themselves from any cases related to Donald Trump.
At one moment, he accused the CNN reporter of lying and being dishonest. The CNN reporter responded that the network had a better record than he at being honest.
There may be an empty seat back from India?
