.MaddowBlog: Pres. Trump makes clear he wasn’t kidding about seeking foreign campaign help.
There’s a long list of instances in which Donald Trump has acted impulsively on assorted whims, but the president’s scheme to get foreign assistance for his re-election campaign was altogether different. It was a deliberate scheme, planned out in some detail, involving presidential orders to a variety of people, including officials within his administration.
It was against this backdrop that there was a notable exchange during a brief presidential Q&A with reporters yesterday afternoon:TRUMP: China has to do whatever they want. If they want to look into something, they can look into it. If they don’t want to look into it, they don’t have to. Frankly, are far as I’m concerned, if China wants to look into something, I think that’s great. And if they don’t want to, I think that’s great too. That’s up to China.
In related news, there’s some question as to whether China did, in fact, provide information to Team Trump on Joe Biden’s son, Hunter. Michael Pillsbury, one of Trump’s top advisers on China, recently returned from Beijing and, as the Washington Post reported yesterday, has made some provocative comments.
