Trump team was on the phone immediately talking about lifting the sanctions. It is a sad day when the president of the US decides to twit nasty disparaging remarks towards anyone and allows Russia to have free run of the US. I am hoping Congress steps up and does the job the president should be assisting with also, shameful. I hope the vote in the House will be similiar to the Senate vote.
