“They have sanctions on Russia – let’s see if we can make some good deals with Russia”, Trump said.
“Yes, I do. I think I would get along very well”. I got numerous Russian leaders, the top people in Russia, honeslty … You look at what Russia’s doing with Iran, how they controlled the situation, and Syria, and virtually every other place that …
The allegations claim Russian Federation has damaging information about the United States president-elect’s business interests, and salacious video evidence of his private life, including claims of using prostitutes at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Moscow.
Earnest defended the work of the intelligence community at Tuesday’s White House briefing, saying this is not the first time those agencies have had “some uncomfortable things to say about Russian Federation”. “Where our interests have overlapped I did what I could to encourage Russian Federation to be a constructive member of the global community”, he said.
Putin condemned Trump’s opponents for attempting to “undermine (his) legitimacy”.
“In my core I think we’re going to be OK”. He added, in a completely unsuspicious way without twirling his mustache or darting his eyes back and forth like a cartoon villain, that he was “not acquainted with Trump” and therefore had “no reasons either to defend or attack him”. “But Russia’s hurting very badly right now because of sanctions, but I think something can happen that a lot of people are gonna benefit”.
“He knows exactly how you see him and he enjoys playing the part very much”, David Klion, a freelance journalist who focuses on Russian Federation, tweeted after reading the interview.
“He has socialised with the most handsome women in the world”. I didn’t have dinner with him. “I was prepared to go further”.
Well, sounds like Putin knows all about “puttin” on the ritz!’ “We were stablemates, and we did very well that night”.
