MARGARET BRENNAN: Have you ever said that directly to him?

MARGARET BRENNAN: –things coming out of Ukraine should be looked at with high scrutiny–
SEN. GRAHAM: Here’s my point–
MARGARET BRENNAN:– because of Russian interference.
SEN. GRAHAM: –my point. It was the Russians who hacked into the DNC, not the Ukrainians. But there are people in the Ukraine that were pulling against Trump because they hated Manafort. To suggest there was no political interference coming out of the Ukraine directed toward the president, I think would be- would not withstand scrutiny.
