Former CIA Director John Brennan tore into President Trump for his comments during a joint news conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, arguing that Trump’s performance was “nothing short of treasonous.”
“Donald Trump’s press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of ‘high crimes & misdemeanors.’ It was nothing short of treasonous. Not only were Trump’s comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???” Brennan tweeted Monday.

When Trump was asked whether he believes the U.S. intelligence community’s findings or Putin’s denial, Trump appeared to side with the Russian president.
