"The former FBI official pointed out that Trump should have told Putin that the Mueller Report contained “troubling information” about Russia’s attempts to “mess with our democracy” and that he’d receive the “wrath” of American sanctions if it happened again. Wallace went on to ask about Trump discussing the Mueller Report’s conclusions with Putin, wondering what he thought about a president “talking to a U.S. adversary who attacked our democracy and they’re sharing some sort of commonality about its result?” After stating that Trump is once again mixing up collusion with criminal conspiracy and that Mueller didn’t actually look at the matter of collusion, Figliuzzi said the president was welcoming further meddling by the Russians. “With regard to continued relations and cozying up to Putin, Putin has the green light now,” he declared before referencing former Trump attorney Michael Cohen describing Trump as having a mob boss mentality."
