7:04 am
secretary said later that the president was saying no to answering morgue questi ining ms not second guessing u.s. intelligence. jeff glor asked him if he held putin personally responsible. very curious to hear what the president has to say. >> as our conversation began yesterday, the white house was again managing what appeared to to be controversial comments about whether russia is a continuing threat. trump told us he accepts current evaluation as he made the more direct stance on russia. you say you agree with u.s. intelligence russia meddled in the election of 2016? >> i've said that before, jeff, i have said that numerous times before. and i would say that that is true, yes. >> but you haven't condemned putin specifically. do you hold him personally responsible? >> well, i would, because he's in charge of the country, just like i consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country.
7:05 am
so certainly, as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible, yes. >> what did you say to him? >> very strong on the fact that we can't have meddling, we can't have any of that. now, look, we're also living in a grown-up world. a strong statement, you know, president obama supposedly made a strong statement. nobody heard it. what they did hear is the statement he made to putin's very close friend and that statement was not acceptable. didn't get very much play relatively speaking. but that statement was not acceptable. but i let him know we can't have this. we're not going to have it. and that's the way it's going to be. we had a very strong meeting on so many different points. and, you know, and i've said, and i campaigned on it, getting along with russia and china, by the way, and other countries, is a very good thing, not a very bad thing. >> but he denied it. so if you believe u.s. intelligence agencies, is putin lying to you? >> i don't want to get into whether or not he's lying.
7:06 am
i can only say i do have confidence in our intelligence agencies as currently constituted. i think that dan coats is excellent. i think that gina is excellent. i think we have excellent people in the agencies. and when they tell me something, it means a lot. >> coats says the threat is ongoing. do you agree with that? >> well, i accept that. he's an expert. this is what he does. he's been doing a very good job. i have tremendous faith in dan coats. and if he says that, i would accept that. i will tell you, though, it better not be. it better not be. >> have you talked to coats since you got back? >> yes, i have, sure. >> what did he say? >> just talked, generally speaking. yes, he agreed with the statement you made. and i go along with him. he's a very -- he's a great guy. he's a great patriot. he loves his country. he's only going to say what he truly believes. and the information that's given
7:07 am
to him is that. >> do you think u.s. intelligence agencies are out to get you? >> well, certainly, in the past, it's been terrible. you look at brennan, you look at clapper, you look at hayden, you look at comey, you look at mccabe, you look at strzok and his lover, lisa page, you look at other people in the fbi that have been fired, that are no longer there. certainly i can't have any confidence in the past. but i can have a lot of confidence in the present and the future because it's getting to be now where we're putting our people in. but in the past, no, i have no confidence in a guy like brennan. i think he's a total low life. i have no confidence in clapper. you know, clapper wrote me a beautiful letter when i first went to office. it was really nice. and then all of a sudden, he's gone haywire because they got to
7:08 am
him and they got him to say things thaybe heoesn't even mean. no, i certainly don't have confidence in past people. you look at what's happened. take a look at all of the shenanigans that have gone on. very hard to have confidence in that group. >> on saturday, you told us you are achieving peace through strength. after helsinki, lindsey graham said you showed weakness. >> well, lindsey graham, you're going to have to -- >> -- presidency -- >> i totally disagree. i think i did great at the news conference. i think it was a strong news conference. you have people that said you should have gone up to him. you should have walk upped aed started screaming in his face. we're living in the real world, okay? nobody's been as tough as i have. all the things with respect to russia that nobody else has done. including sanctions. sanctions. the biggest sanctions ever imposed on russia. it's just a fake news deal.
7:09 am
they love this far tinarrative. even you. you're wasting a lot of time talking about russia. nobody has been tougher on putin and on russia than donald trump. >> it is top of mind, that's why we asked about it. the president also spoke about the 2020 election, telling us about his plans and who his dream opponent will be. we're going to have much more on that guys, in our next hour. your next hour. >> yes. >> you are totally welcome to stay. exactly, you can just stay at the table till tonight. 70% of the american people according to our new cbs news poll believe that -- they're on the side of u.s. intelligence, believe that russia interfered. do you think the president is there? why the hesitation? where is he? we know what he said. >> there's traditionally been this tendency to group both collusion and meddling in the same, right? and i think there's a tempt by folks around him to separate those two. that is, there could be meddling, but maybe not
7:10 am
collusion. saying one way or the other. but he made that distinction on tuesday. he made that distinction again yesterday. >> it's interesting yet today he didn't go into it that there was no collusion rift. he stayed focused on answering your question. when he said it better not be, that was the strongest he's been i think so far. >> i did ask him about the special counsel, whether he'd sit. the first thing he said was no collusion. >> i've never heard him say why he wanted to have a private meeting to begin with. did he give you any details, any more details about what was discussed in the private meeting? seems like we would have eliminated a lot of this, a lot of this conversation, if the meeting had been open and people could see exactly what was being said. now they don't know what to believe. in he mentioned nuclear weapons, it's really and north korea. i asked him for specifics. he didn't provide any specifics. the white house has not put a readout. i think there's a belief from this president whether kim jong-un or vladimir putin or
7:11 am
someone else that he wants to be in a room with someone talking to someone. >> all right, jeff, we're going to have more later in our next hour. we'll also hear the president talk about answering questions from special counsel robert mueller. that's all ahead on "cbs this morning." a federal judge has ordered a cuse e accused russian agent butina to stay in jail until her trial. she pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy and acting as a foreign agent. prosecutor says she contacted russian operatives while in the u.s. and used her cover as a gun rights activist to gain access to conservative politicians. paula reid is at the u.s. district courthouse in washington with the latest. paula, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. federal prosecutors accuse butina of being a federal agent who offered sex in exchange for a job where she could influence u.s. policy. she was arrested sunday after years of allegedly carrying out a scheme that reads like something right out of a spy novel. >> i'm a representative of

8:01 am
details about what was discussed in the private meeting? >> some of these, he didn't provide many specifics. state investigators are still trying to determine if there were in fact shark attacks that happened right off this popular beach. one of the victims says she has no doubt it was a shark. and a massive flow of lava continues to reshape the big island of hawaii. >> that volcano is terrifying, but it's also the most considerate natural disaster i have ever seen. yeah, because it destroyed the island, but then it made a whole new island. i have never seen that before. like imagine if an earthquake knocked down your house, but then erected a condo next door.

8:03 am
asked about special counsel mueller's investigation. >> will you sit down with an interview? >> i have always wanted to do an interview, because, look, there's been no collusion, there's been no talk of russia, there's been no phone calls, there's been nothing. i call it a witch hunt, that's exactly what it is. it's a vicious witch hunt, and you know what? it's very bad for our country, very, very bad for our country. >> let me ask you about 2020. who do you think your democratic opponent will be, joe biden says he'll decide by february. >> i dream of joe biden. president obama took him out of the garbage heap and i was shocked that he would. i think i would like to have any of those that we're talking about, there's a group of seven or eight right now, i would like
8:04 am
to run against any one of them. biden by himself never could do anything. president obama took him and made him vice president and he was fine. but you go back and look at how he succeeded in running when he ran two or three times. i don't think he ever broke one. he was at the 1% or less level. >> it's interesting biden's not one to hold back his thoughts, especially about this president, so it will be interesting to his response when he hears this. >> it's so personally attacking, that he took him out of the trash heap. it's just very undignified language it seems to me. >> also the case when you're having issues in the white house, you get in a fight with someone from the other party, and that gets to the center of the conversation. well the president said he still plans on sitting down with

robert mueller, it's just up to his lawyers. and you can see more of jeff's interview with president trump tonight on the cbs evening news. the president is also under pressure to reject an effort to question obama's ambassador to russia. at the helsinki summit president putin promised to give access to russians accused of russian meddling if he's able to question certain americans, he names michael mcphaul as -- white house press secretary sarah sanders was asked if the white house was considering putin's request. >> there was some conversation about it, but there wasn't a commitment made on behalf of the united states and the president will work with his team and we'll let you know if there's an announcement on that front. >> former cia director john brennan who called mr. trump's conduct at the summit nothing short of treason house. he said that the answer has to

8:07 am
states fault. russia has tried to interdpefern the united states russia and other countries around the world. >> the president looks at that and says well, we're all to blame, meaning both the united states and the russians. >> well, i would disagree with that, i would say that there are individuals that obviously want to bring up issues here and try to be able to divide us as two countries, but russia, clearly, there are human rights violations, what they have done in syria, attacking hospitals, what they have done in invading ukraine, crimea, assassinations into the uk, clearly this is a russia that doesn't have the same value set that we have, and if there's a division it's because we absolutely don't understand the russians, how they behave and how they vice president humanity. they have completely dissimilar to us. >> is it normal for a u.s. president to consider the idea
8:08 am
of turning over a u.s. official over to a u.s. adversary like russia, is that normal? >> i don't know if it's normal, but i'm opposed to it. there's no way i would turn over a former diplomat for russian interrogation. we need to continue to be able to stand by our folks. >> do you think president trump is in some way compromised by vladimir putin. >> no, we have seen no evidence of that and we have gone through a lot of evidence in a bipartisan way, i don't think there's a compromise there, i do think he treats the president of china and the president of russia different than he would any other world leader. but i don't think there's any compromise in that relationship. >> speaking of his treatment, tead eye youe on the work done on the u.s.

8:10 am
that's happening with homeland security here and what they're doing to protect our election systems, that's extremely important, our dhs has been by far more prepared for the 2018 than what they were for the 2016 elections, security clearances in each state, trying to work through the process to protect the elections, we have sanctions on the internet research agency, that's a russian group that tried to interfere with our election. i would put sanctions on all those people for the most recent indictments. >> how are you feeling about the actions of the president over the last couple of days? does anything concern you? >> i think the president is not careful in his words in the way he talks about things, but that's no great shock, that's been true from the election time frame through now. and that sometimes gets misunderstood and when you're
