Description

Co-hosts Michael Isikoff and Dan Klaidman recall the last time a foreign government attempted to meddle in a U.S. presidential election. It was back in 1996. Reuters investigative reporter Mark Hosenball joins Isikoff and Klaidman to recount the campaign finance scandal when the Chinese government, not Russia, interfered in the election between Republican candidate Bob Dole and Democratic candidate President Bill Clinton.
