WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Republican head of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee Bob Corker said President Donald Trump's comments at a joint news conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday made the United States look like a "pushover."
"When he had the opportunity to defend our intelligence agencies who work for him, I was very disappointed and saddened with the equivalency that he gave between them and what Putin was saying," Corker told CNN in a reference to the agencies conclusions that Moscow interfered in the 2016 U.S. election and Putin's denials that Republican Trump apparently accepted.
