efforts to establish back channels between the republican party, a source tells cnn, ericson sent anto a campaign adviser of trump trying to facilitate a meeting between trump and vladimir putin. those efforts were rebuffed by the trump campaign. was he used by the russian half his age? a lawyer says their relationship was real and cites this video of them recording "beauty and the beast" in the studio and a source close to the situation tells cnn ericson has been visiting her in jail, even recently. but in court papers, prosecutors say, quote, she appears to treat that relationship as simply a necessary aspect of her activities. >> what would his best defense be? >> your best defense is that you were a dupe. you were an unknowing participate in certain activities. >> reporter: former spies say deploying a young woman is tried and true russian spy craft. >> she was definitely a honey trap. she was a beautiful woman, young, alluring, spoke beautiful english, she would be attractive to a lot of lonely men in washington, d.c. she was the perfect trojans horse, if you like, get her throu

what the president tonight was really trying to appeal -- not to eric ericson, you know. he's trie aetrying to appeal to independent voters and trying to come across as the reasonable leader. and don't forget, his leadership numbers have suffered lately, particularly after the debt ceiling. and one way he can do that is to challenge republicans, lay down a very clear plan and say, you should pass it, you should pass it, this makes a lot of sense to me. and hope that it makes a lot of sense to the independent voters out there who will then put pressure aon republicans in congress. the missing part here, which i want to see, is when the president is going to talk on september 19 about how he intends to pay for it and what he's going to say to that joint committee and how he's going to pay for this $450 billion or whatever it turns out to be. that's something the american people need to hear also. but for tonight he was very concise, very clear, told them he's going to send up legislation, which is something we also haven't seen from this president, and say, here's what i wa

we have seen eric ericson address the issue. i was able to speak to some attendees here to get their reaction. we saw the crowd reaction. by and large, it was received favorably. i did speak to one woman who came down all the way from indianapolis. she was upset about it. she is not a donald trump supporter. she said she is probably going to vote for ted cruz or scott walker but she said the media is twisting these words and that donald trump should not have been disinvited. we have heard from carly fiorina, george petaki and lindsey graham and i was able to talk to governor mike huckabee and ask him what he thought about donald trump's comments. >> you know, mark, megyn kelly was a colleague for me for 6 1/2 years when i was at fox. she is one of the most remarkable people i know, intellectually, unsurpassed as a broadcast journalist. she has great integrity. i'm going to stand for megyn kelly. >> reporter: do you think it was inappropriate? did he cross the line with that comment? >> i certainly would never say anything about

eric ericson is here, he's a cnn contributor.ticket, does that greatly influence what has traditionally been a blue state of wisconsin, turning it red? >> it could. paul ryan won his congressional district as did barack obama. will it really make a difference in wisconsin? i'm not sure it makes a huge difference. i don't know that vice presidents make a big difference. >> even though people say this might be the most important decision that a presidential candidate makes is the picking of a running mate? >> it goes towards more is he ready and competent. it used to be presidents picked up vice presidents to swing states, but now it goes more towards policy ideals. he wants to woo states. when you dig into the polling, they are concerned about the national debt. a lot of people don't like paul ryan's plan, but he's willing to admit as he said this morning that both democrats and republicans have been to blame. when you have a vice presidential bid saying it was us as well, that sends a good message. >> how does this pick round out

and i was reading something eric ericson said. those comments largely closed the door on evangelical support for trump. do you think that's true? >> i don't think necessarily think that's true. at least at this point. this was classic donald trump. i don't think anybody thought he would go to an iowa evangelical event or any evangelical event and talk about yes, i've asked god for forgiveness and i'm on my knees every night. they realize that's not the authentic donald trump. donald trump knows that's not the authentic donald trump. he is authentic which has been his calling card all along. evangelicals can deal with some truth telling. they've had many lies over the years to them as it relates to politics, being used as a pawn many times in political games. get out the evangelical vote and those issues are dropped. so donald trump is in essence showing some truth telling here. at least on the for giveness front. at least they know where he stands. >> i should say i put these questions to trump as well and he said what you said, t

. >> the republican party is full of people -- >> to eric ericson's point, do you think he hurt himself? >> i think we all need to lighten up a little bit. but in terms of the some of the things we're talking about, you talk to him about lobbyist, for interest. there is jeb bush coming out at some sort of lobbying reform policy that's got all kinds of holes in it that make no sense. would be terribly ineffective. this is july and back in january, there he is sweeping through washington, d.c. like a vacuum cleaner. and then he wants them to raise $50,000 each for them. he has no intention of forming lobby. that's the difference here. >> coming up next what sets him apart from he believes his opponents? >> you asked me a question i give you an answer. it's very simple. i'm a very smart person. i went to the best schools, i'm a very smart person. so you asked me a question i give you an answer. i don't need bolster's like bush and all of these other people. hillary can't give you an answer without going back and checking it out. it strategy is now business strategy. and a partnership with

and sources tell cnn she had a romantic relationship with paul ericson, a former board member of the american conservative union who attempted to make inroads with the romney and trump campaigns but was never particularly successful. since the court filing only referred to him as person 1, the charges -- erickson previously told mcclatchey news that he co- -- erickson if he tried to set up a meeting between trump and putin. >> i was just wondering if you would be willing to talk to us about what the u.s. times is reporting, about you trying to set up a meeting between president trump and putin. >> oh, yeah, it didn't exactly happen that way. >> the man who mentioned buttina has been sanctioned by the u.s. and messaged herr one month. she earned a 4.0 at american university, all while making the most of washington, d.c. torsion called her a daredevil girl when she took a photo near the u.s. capitol on president trump's inauguration day. she also buttoned up for political events, she's seen here with political candidate scott walker and sitting just feet away from former national secur

eric ericson, and maria cardona. so we've talked about a lot of things. fidelity is here, we're talking about tax codes trying to break it all down. but i do want you all to chime in a little bit. we haven't yet seen romney's, but there's a lot of speculation about what we are going to see. how do you think that is going to weigh? let's start with you, eric. >> you know, i don't know how the comparison is going to play, frankly. it depends on what mitt romney's taxes say. the worst thing is the two little words that have been banning about this week and those are cayman islands. he's got an account in the cayman islands. people scratch their head over that. they're used to the john grisham novels. he's paid his taxes on it. there's nothing illegal about it. but it's kind of hard to run a man of the people, main street campaign when you've got a cayman islands bank account. he's going to have to be able to overcome that. as maria said, he's having a real hard time talking about these issues. just from a historic perspective, his father set the modern trend
