MSNBC Analyst: Helsinki Was JUST LIKE Kristallnacht, Pearl Harbor!
It’s well-established that Monday was not the brightest day in the Trump administration and possibly one of the most controversial with the President’s ill-advised comments seeming to take the word of Russia and not U.S. intelligence concerning 2016 election meddling.
