    It's fun to see Trump pull people's chains and they fall for it everytime.

    Putin lied to the reporter. When Donald was in Moscow attempting to build a 'Trump tower' , Putin refused to meet with him. The deal was turned down by Putin. Yes Putin knew about the Donald, and like he said he knew about the prostitute fiasco. Several news outlets reported this story before and after the presidential election. This relationship our president has with Putin is dangerous. If 'all' Americans don't come together and present a solution to this problem, our Democracy will slowly slip away.

    And the two of them are lying through their teeth......

    I'm pretty sure they knew who they were loaning hundreds of millions of dollars too.

    Putin likely has a dossier miles long on Donald Trump.

    Russia is NOT our friend. No friend would hack computers, steal information on Americans, empty American bank accounts, sell Americans' personal information on the dark web, or pay assassins to take out "inconvenient" people in Britain and elsewhere (nerve agent traced back to Russia) and kill rivals to maintain power.

    Come to think of it, Donald Trump, Congress, and the Senate aren't much better. They're trying to redistribute wealth from us to themselves and big businesses, and they consider Americans a crop to be harvested of money.

    Ha

    - as if we can believe Putin on anything:

    A comedian Stephen Colbert filmed an episode there and he said he was followed everywhere he went and was informed there were cameras in his hotel rooms.

    Putin has known who and what Trump was and is for an enormously long time while he understood just how to use and corrupt Trump through playing into Trumps narcissism, greed, and pentience for dishonesty.

  • Signature Black

    Not one but two lying misfits.

  • Bob Marshall IX

    It is kind of a flaw in this branch of the collusion saga. Why would he care at this point in time. Trump was just another business man.

  • b h

    ..you don't say...?

  • Pologize3

    So do we flip a coin to decide which one is lying?

  • Ctrygrl

    he did in fact have a relationship with Putin: "I do have a
    relationship, and I can tell you that he's very interested in what we're
    doing here today."

    Could very well have been just another lie by the bloviator in chief to make himself seem more important. However even if Putin is telling the truth that doesn't mean that there wasn't some kind of collection of "data" if it happened. I suspect it was pretty much standard procedure for visits from any foreigner.

    John Kelly is silent in the White House now. Maybe this is why Trump seems to be screwing p at every turn. Kelly was his first line of defense before but I believe he has given up or has had his power to intervene seriously limited. Bad for Trump regardless.

  • Verity Pendelton

    Putin knows everyone and everything going on in his country. He might not have met Trump, but as a former KGB chief, I am sure he did everything to make sure he had the goods on Trump.

  • SFprogressive

    Whether the two met or not is not the question, Putin claims he didn't know Trump was in Moscow during the pageant. The very nature of the event and it's "juicy" potential had to be under huge scrutiny for all it was worth. Putin would not only have known Trump was there, but certainly would have had him spied on at the least. No major American businessman or "player" goes to Russia without an intelligence dossier made by Russian security network. Even smaller fish are spied on just in case they can be used later on. Also, Trump had made overtures about building a tower in Moscow. That also could not be under Putin's radar, simply not possible.
    Putin is lying.

  • Swissdude

    Yea well we all know Putin is a liar. So why would he admit he knew Trump before he was president?

  • Truthful Opinion

    So this is what Trump and Putin talked about behind closed doors for two hours, their plan is to play dumb and stupid at the press briefing. Trump would say why would it be Russia and the next day claim I misspoke and change it to there was no reason it wouldn't be Russia. And Putin would say Donald who?

  • GENO LAWRENZI JR.

    I would really appreciate it if somebody at ABC NEWS -- preferably an editor -- would tell me why this story is considered news. I realize that ABC along with CNN and MSNBC loves digging up anything negative about President Trump that they can find, but really fellows, isn't this kind of stretching it?

  • Andrew

    The gutter of shared scum between Trump and Putin sets a new low- level of human GOP politicians who support Trump as Putin's BOY. Trump just gave Putin a free pass. The republicans who suck Trump have sold out to Putin. To hell with these republicans. They have sold out AMERICA!

  • Red Hawk

    "Well, distinguished colleague, let me tell you this: When President Trump was at Moscow back then, I didn't even know that he was in Moscow," Putin said. "I treat President Trump with utmost respect, but back then when he was a private individual, a businessman, nobody informed me that he was in Moscow."---------- Its common knowledge the CIA reported the KGB had an extensive dossier on Trump.

    Subpoena the translator!

  • mrphilbert

    "Donald who?". That is what the majority of Americans are wishing they could say now.

  • Little Fish

    The world's biggest lie by Putin: "Trump is not my wife."

  • YouMayBanMeButYouCan'tBanIdeas

    2015:
    "Trump answered "yes" when asked whether he had any contact with Putin."
    "I do have a relationship,"

    2016:
    "I don't know who Putin is,"
    "... I never met Putin."

    Is this the kind of "particular vernacular" that Trump supporters have grown to accept?

  • wd65

    Putin knew him then as he does now, as Fifi, his obedient pet poodle.

  • empirewacksback

    “Trump? Who? Oh, the peed on guy! Hah, hah, hah!”
    — Vladimir Putin, Intelligence meeting, May 2016.

  • Mike Kennedy

    Trump must really think Americans are stupid to believe his statements were a slip of the tongue. This guy is a traitor and a habitual liar.

  • Truthfully

    Why is Russia AGAIN reporting on PRIVATE meetings between putin and trump???? The AMERICAN media is never informed???

    There are two Democrat's asking to INTERVIEW the interpreter that was at the PRIVATE meeting. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen - NH and Rep. Joe Kennedy - MA want the American People and the American Defense to KNOW what trump agreed with.

    SUPPORT these American Representatives so the AMERICAN people know!

  • Dale Stein

    Well, it's a fact that anybody who is somebody is always being followed and recorded in Moscow. That's a fact.

  • Chickiepops

    Sick burn Vlad!

  • Sharon Vaughn

    Like Putin is going to admit to Trump's invitation to the pageant in 2013. He held out because he was already grooming Trump since 2011 and meeting in 2013 would wipe out any plausible deniability on his part. Putin knew exactly where Trump was in 2013.

  • arriba65

    Do you like how Putin pretends the question "Do you have kompromat on Trump?" is directed at him personally? "No, I didn't do anything like that. Nobody told me he was here." Except your FSB were following SOP in collecting Kompromat on just about every American.

  • Forward forward

    When Mr Putin lies, it is with a purpose. He has thought it through, and knows how it will be taken and what its outcome will be. When Mr Trump lies, it's because he simply has no concept of 'truth' or 'lies'. They have as much meaning to him as they would to your cat. He says what he thinks will get the best reaction from his audience of the moment, and hasn't thought more than one second ahead.
