Trump Looks Awfully 'Compromised' In This July 2016 Interview
Take a look at this interview Trump did with George Stephanopoulis in July of last year.
He's asked point-blank about the weakening of the Ukraine plank in the Republican Platform.
"I wasn't involved with that. I had nothing to do with that."
As Karoli covered this at the time, we saw this primarily as a case of Trump's foreign policy incompetence.

The Steele dossier: that dossier asserts that the Trump Campaign had a direct quid pro quo with Russia: Lay off Ukraine in exchange for Wikileaks emails. Rachel Maddow reported on that in March.
