Unlike other legislation he has signed, Trump did not have a White House photo op with the text. In fact, the media was banned from covering it.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Trump was not “very happy about” the bill, because he wants to “restore the relationship” between the two countries, despite the overt Russian aggression and interference.
Trump’s approval of the bill comes only after intense pressure from Democrats and progressive activists around the country resulted in overwhelming, veto-proof majorities supporting it in Congress.
Trump has still refused to condemn Russia for their actions, and at every turn has rejected the findings of U.S. intelligence agencies that they employed hackers who broke into computers at the Democratic National Committee and distributed them with the goal of helping Trump’s campaign.
He has also still refused to publicly comment on Russia’s decision to oust American diplomats in retaliation for President Barack Obama’s actions, where property was confiscated and Russians expelled for their role in election meddling.
There were questions as to whether Trump would even sign the bill, as he still appears unwilling to back the American electoral system even when it is under attack from his Russian benefactors.
Trump has still failed to pass any major legislation reflecting his political priorities, like the repeal of health care reform or building a useless wall on the southern border with Mexico.
