angus king, an independent from maine sit on the intelligence academy. president trump was asked if he holds president putin responsible. he says he is in charge of the country so i hold him responsible, but it is more than that, he was shown intelligence that vladimir putin ordered the attacks. >> he had that intelligence before he was inaugurated. i have seen the intelligence as a member of the committee, and there is a couple problems with this response. clearly the president equivocating on whether or not vladimir putin was responsible is a problem and it's why. we're under attack and we need a coordinated response, and when the president is on again and offer again, mostly denying it, it makes it impossible for that to happen. the national security advisor abolishing the position of cyber coordinator. a bizarre decision given that. the second reason this is important, john, is i have met with people in earn eurostern e that have been putting up with russian interference for years. i asked what is the best defense, and they said that it is for the pe
