It's been over 160 days since Donald Trump last gave a press conference. On Wednesday, as he holds his first as President-elect, questions abound regarding the type of president he'll be.
Certainly Trump's cabinet picks, promise to repeal the Affordable Care Act, and remarks on nuclear weapons will be among the many items asked about. But whether he gives clear, informed answers rather than the off-script, stream of consciousness he's become known for remains to be seen.
It also remains to be seen how the breaking news suggesting the Russian government has compromising information on Trump, or that members of his campaign have been in contact with the Russians, will play out. Is this much ado about nothing or the beginning of something big? Join us today we round up a bipartisan team of political aces to give you commentary and analysis of recent news.
