so does the liberal outlet. fox -- and myhink when quarrel with them is that it is not just skepticism of government. it is giving a platform to uninformed players about government, about obama personally with he is not born in the u.s. it was a platform for people to say things like that and that is not helpful for dialogue. another thing is fundamentalist religious thinking, which to me is kind of a manifest issue. trump in that interview where he said look at us, we're not so great. that is actually something that maher saidhen bill that, all the people now, or many of those who are trump was their, that anti-position. now it is the probe position. of the worduse conservative is erroneous. it is reactionary. nixon brought in the epa. >> he did. and china. that is the bizarre conversion of so much of what is going on into a cult of personality, in which somehow that which is said by someone you decided you like is used, whereas anything that is said by somebody that you don't like, anything negative that is said, you accept immediately. but that is human nature. >> i think the infection from that is significant. where thengelicals grou

uninformed enough that he is being duped by the russians. i think he is well aware that he is a pawn in their hands. why do you think donald trump's sodisposed to vladimir putin? you'd have to ask him. have you actually seen evidence that the russians have been compromising material, for example, what the russians call compromat on trump for example. there are active investigations ongoing right now about russian involvement in the last presidential election. there are two investigations in the congress, as well as fbi investigations. i am going to leave to them to make determinations about what the russians did or what they might have. actually, when trump says only the fake news media think his team were included with russia. the fbi director hasn't ruled it out. clearly you're not ruling this out either. these are ongoing investigations. just like the chairman of the senate intelligence committee, involved in the investigation, said it would be premature at this time to make any determination or rule anything out. the british home secretary said that the government should be given access to what's app another end to end encryption
