Treasury Secretary Can’t Explain Russia Sanctions Failure

From Tommy Christopher:

At Wednesday’s hearing, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) pressed Mnuchin on Trump’s weakness, asking him if Trump ever asked him to impose sanctions on Russia.

Mnuchin tried to ignore her question by changing the subject to a sanctions report that his department compiled using a magazine article.

McCaskill kept asking, and Mnuchin awkwardly kept dodging.

When committee chair Orrin Hatch instructed her to let Mnuchin answer the question, she said, “He’s not answering the question. I want to know if the president asked him.”
