"If it's true, that anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign communicated with the Russian government in the course of this campaign, what will you do?
Sessions answered: "Senator Franken, I'm not aware of those activities. I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I didn't have--did not have communications with the Russians, and I'm unable to comment on it."
The president's immediate focus was on the question of why anyone believed that communicating with the Russians was bad. There is nothing wrong with that, Trump insisted. As in the past, it was hard to move him off this point and to the issue at hand: A possible lie to Congress.
"Fake news," said the president.
