CNN's New Day guests were talking about the testimony of the national intelligence figures yesterday during their annual report to Congress
"The other big story this morning, the chasm revealed between the nation's intelligence chiefs and the president of the United States," John Berman said.
"Direct contradictions between their assessments and the president's claims. And in the bigger picture it adds to the president's isolation -- rebuffed by the intelligence community, abandoned by many in his own party on the shutdown as the president enters his fifth day with no public schedule. Watch how clearly top officials split from him before Congress on the world's greatest hot spots."
They then showed a montage of Trump statements vs. those of the intelligence chiefs.
"All right. joining us, Laura Coates, David Sanger, Joe Lockhart. David, I want to start with you. These were direct contradictions between the intelligence chiefs and what the president has said and the director of national intelligence Dan Coates even put it more succinctly: 'My job is to present the facts regardless of what the politics are.' What did you see?" Berman said.
