Summary
After Rudy Giuliani went on Fox News and let the cat out of the bag that Trump had paid Michael Cohen back for the Stormy Daniels hush money, the White House was caught completely flat-footed. Sarah Huckabee Sanders didn't know how to lie her way out of it and hasn't given a complete explanation of what happened. What happens next? Guest host Chris Lu has some thoughts!
We talk about the Stormy/Mueller news with Ryan J Reilly from Huffpost, former member of Congress Glenn Nye and Rudy Mehrbani, Senior Counsel at the Brennan Center.
