Of course the lying lamestream media has already tried to spin this as another lie about Trump being in Putin's pocket. Perhaps the key line being, "Oh, that's wonderful."
What I find wonderful is how the media has such a keen grasp of sarcasm.
Why do you believe what the media tells you, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, and a distinct lack of evidence supporting what you seem to believe?
Trump doesn't have to lie about Putin and say he's stupid and makes stupid moves in order to have Putin fear him, and stay in line when Trump was the POTUS. Putin didn't take any part of the Ukraine when Trump was in office, unlike what he did when Obama was in office, and now with Dementia Joe in office.
