There is nothing wrong when the Trump administration says it wants to find areas of common ground to work with Russia - perfectly reasonable.

Embrace a diversity of ideas. Embrace the fact that you can disagree with people and not be disagreeable.

If you can find common ground, you can accomplish great things.

I've said that we're going to produce real results for the American people because so many Americans feel left out and left behind, they think the economy has failed them, they think our government has failed, they can't stand the gridlock and dysfunction in our politics, and I'm determined to produce more good jobs with rising incomes, and deal with all of the concerns that families have about education, college affordability, student debt.

When we helped prevent the massacre of civilians trapped on a distant mountain, here's what one of them said: "We owe our American friends our lives.
