Putin Points At Journalists And Asks Trump 'Are These The Ones Hurting You?'



The Independent: Putin points at journalists and asks Trump 'are these the ones hurting you?' during press conference

'These are the ones,' Mr Trump replies

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin kicked off their highly anticipated one-one-one meeting by trading disparaging comments about the reporters gathered to cover it.

At a photo op before their private G20 summit meeting, the Russian President leaned in to Mr Trump, gestured to the journalists in the room, and asked: "These are the ones hurting you?”

"Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?" Henry II in reference to Thomas Becket, and some of his Knights did, now replace Henry with Vlad Or Donny and replace Becket with CNN or any journalist and the knights with CIA or KBG and you could have modern day play like "Murder in the Cathedral", by T.S. Eliot.

"He let them off the hook," Glenn Carle, a CIA veteran and former spy, said of Trump's reluctance to properly address Russia's meddling.

If Trump let them off the hook, then Obama did too.

Obama did nothing because he assumed that Hillary would win. His statements show this fact.

I have not heard of any vote totals being changed by the Russians.

Now propaganda I have heard. The USSR /Russia has been doing propaganda from the git go.

Surprise: American Communist Party Was Tool of USSR

The American Communist Party was just one of their many tools. Many on the left were tools.

The NYT being fellow travelers or just dull witted have come to the sudden realization (sudden for them) that the American communist party was a Soviet Tool.

This is my shocked face.
