Trump skewered by conservative critics over report of Russia paying bounty for killing U.S. troops

A #NeverTrump Republican group skewered the president for his inaction in the face of intelligence reports that Russia paid cash bounties to Islamic militants for killing American troops. The new ad from the conservative Lincoln Project accuses Trump of looking the other way from the damaging report to protect his cozy relationship with Russian strongman Vladimir Putin. “Putin paid a bounty to kill American soldiers,” the group said in a tweet.
