Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) quickly fired back Thursday at President Trump’s assertion that Congress is to blame for the deterioration U.S.-Russia relations.

“Our relationship w/ Russia is at dangerous low,” McCain tweeted.

“You can thank Putin for attacking our democracy, invading neighbors & threatening our allies.”

Trump on Thursday morning had a different take. 

“Our relationship with Russia is at an all-time & very dangerous low,” Trump tweeted.

“You can thank Congress, the same people that can’t even give us [healthcare]!”

The tweet came the day after Trump signed into law a bill overwhelmingly approved by Congress that imposes new sanctions on Russia and curbs the president’s authority to lift them.
