Trump fights backlash after Helsinki comments

481

President Trump backtracked this week on the statements he made a press conference in Helsinki, where he appeared to accept Russian President Putin’s claims that his country did not meddle in the 2016 U.S. election. The comments were criticized on both sides of the aisle, but White House press secretary Sarah Sanders announced Thursday that Putin has been invited to Washington in the fall. Politico reporter and “Politico Playbook” co-author Daniel Lippman joins CBSN to discuss.
