(CHICAGO) It didn’t take long for Illinois Senator Dick Durbin to provide his take on President Trump’s claim he misspoke during a news conference with Russia President Vladimir Putin .
Durbin took to the floor of the senate to call Trump’s claim he misspoke “a damage control event.”
He demanded Trump release a transcript of his secret two-hour meeting with Putin and added this demand, “President Donald Trump can no longer refuse to disclose his income tax returns. He did it thruout the campaign. He’s done it since. We need to know his financial relationship with Russia and the oligarchs of Vladimir Putin. There has to be more to the story than we know today. It’s time for this president to come clean.”
Durbin and also Chicago Congressman Mike Quigley are also demanding more federal aid to help election agencies across the country guard against more Russian meddling.
