Today is a lot about Russia, and the ongoing aftermath of Trump's disastrous appeasement summit with Russian president Vladimir Putin in Helsinki. John starts the show talking about the wonderful anti-Trump protests he's been attending at the White House all week. Then we discuss Trump's "grammatical error," the NRA being infiltrated by a Russian spy, Trump's disdain for Montenegro (and how criticizing Montenegro is actually a secret Putin talking point), some new polling showing around 70% of Republicans supporting Trump's job at the summit (and why that's actually not that bad a number for Democrats), and finally some good news: How journalist Jordan Fabian showed some courage at the White House press briefing.
