Asked if #Russia is still targeting the US, @POTUS shakes his head and says "no."

"China will agree to purchase a not yet agreed upon, but very substantial, amount of agricultural, energy, industrial, and other product from the United States to reduce the trade imbalance between our two countries," according to @PressSec.

WH Sarah Huckabee Sanders gaslighting the press, covering for Trump's earlier wrong answer "NO" when asked if Russia was still targeting US election. She said she spoke with him afterwards and he was just saying "'No' to answering questions"
Wow WH @PressSec Huckabee Sanders just confirmed to @maggieNYT that Putin and Trump discussed Russia questioning fmr Amb @McFaul about “@Billbrowder crimes” at Helsinki summit. “The admin made no commitment about it.” Great, so Trump is now helping fuel Putin’s witch hunts??
Amb @McFaul: Russia is insinuating that I'm part of a criminal conspiracy. Our govt has to push back on crazy stuff like that. You can't set that as a precedent. Or dignify this kind of tit-for-tat moral equivalency, which our president continues to do w/ Vladimir Putin. #Maddow

My thoughts on #Trump's bombshell interview w/ The Sun: He puts his finger at inconvenient truth: tradeoff between regulatory alignment w/ EU post-Brexit and regulatory alignment w/ US as part of US-UK #trade deal. But he goes about it in undiplomatic way that isn't helpful.
Trump's explosive interview calling US-UK trade deal off is likely part of negotiation tactic. Throw UK off balance and then extract more concessions in future negotiations.
Still a lot more on trade for T May to talk to Trump about: US steel and aluminium tariffs and looming tariffs on cars and automotive imports. T May should position herself as bridge between US and EU.
