Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell predicted Sunday that any hopes President-elect Trump has to get along with the Russians and President Vladimir Putin will be “dashed pretty quickly” into his first term in office.

Appearing on “Face The Nation,” McConnell argued that it is not unusual for a new president to seek an improved relationship with the Russians, citing former President George W. Bush’s efforts upon taking office in 2000. Hillary Clinton, as secretary of state for President Obama, famously sought an unsuccessful “reset” of relations.
