The President of the United States of America just took to the podium and repeatedly attacked the United States while defending Russia - playing right into the hands of Vladimir Putin.
The President of the United States was asked to name just one issue where Russia is to blame for the state of relations between our nations. He could not name one. Instead reverts to the #BothSides rhetoric he used to defend racists in Charlottesville.
Responding to the question of Russia's meddling in our elections, the President dismissed our own defense and intelligence agencies and instead retreated to a puppet-like response of Putin's "strong and powerful" denial.
If this is what was said publicly I have grave concerns about what was discussed during the one-on-one meeting.
