Chris Wallace squared off with Vice President-elect Mike Pence today on the incoming president’s criticisms of the intel community and whether their campaign had any contact with Russian operatives.

Pence criticized the “salacious garbage” spreading around from an intel report on disinformation against Trump as Wallace asked him about Trump’s criticisms of the intelligence community on Twitter.

On the subject of sanctions, Pence simply said that Trump believes in fixing America’s “terrible relationship with Russia.”

Wallace brought up Michael Flynn‘s conversations with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. and asked if there was any discussion then about sanctions, given how they spoke on the day President Obama ordered sanctions last month. Pence said their conversation was not “in any way related to new U.S. sanctions.”

Wallace followed up by asking, “Can you flatly deny––’cause this continues to be out there––that there were any contacts at any point during the campaign between Mr. Trump’s associates and Russian operatives… about the hacking of the Democrats during the election?”

4. I suffered through the whole thing

Amazing how long Pence can talk and not say a single thing of substance. His answer of "of course not" the third time the question was asked rings false to me. If the answer is no, why not say so the first time the question is asked? Well, because you don't want to out right lie so you skate around it until backed into a corner, then you lie.
