Russian Embassy: Trump Initiated Putin Call, And It Was 90 Minutes, Not 60
The Russian embassy in Washington said that it was President Donald Trump who initiated the call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, and that the conversation lasted 90 minutes.
Trump said Friday that the controversial call was probably more than an hour, and White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters it was slightly more than an hour.
Putin urged Trump to ease the sanction pressure on North Korea as it makes a good-faith fulfillment of its commitment, apparently to denuclearize, the embassy noted on Facebook. The phone conversation occurred the day before Pyonyang fired a barrage of unidentified projectiles into the Sea of Japan. A North Korean statement Saturday said the test of large-caliber long-range rocket launchers and tactical guided weapons was intended to increase the combat ability of the country.
Putin also underscored that no nation should interfere in the politics of Venezuela, according to the Facebook statement.

I know its a fantasy but wouldnt you love to be a fly on the wall to listen in and record that conversation?
He is probably setting up with Putin how they will hijack the 2020 election and how to defeat Democrats in Congress. What Putin did to his elected officials in Russia fat donnie will be doing the same thing to destroy our democracy.
