Trump: I 'strongly pressed' Putin on election meddling

President Trump early Sunday said he "strongly pressed" Russian President Vladimir Putin during the G20 summit on Russian meddling in the U.S. presidential election.

"I strongly pressed President Putin twice about Russian meddling in our election. He vehemently denied it. I've already given my opinion....." the president tweeted.

"...We negotiated a ceasefire in parts of Syria which will save lives. Now it is time to move forward in working constructively with Russia!" he added.







Trump did not say whether he accepted Putin's denial, however.
Top administration officials on Saturday did not refute Putin's claims that Trump seemed satisfied with the Russian leader's denial that the Kremlin did not interfere in the 2016 presidential election.

He doesn't buy his clothes in the "big and tall" section for nothing.

Putin has completely outsmarted and trapped 45 (not exactly difficult)

this is the line of questioning for him:

Do you believe Putin when he says they did not meddle?

if answer is yes, follow up:
Then you believe the US intelligence agencies are wrong?

if no, follow up:
Then what actions do you plan to take to ensure they cannot do it again?

No matter what happens he's either left betraying the US intelligence community or force to acknowledge something has t be done about the meddling that MADE HIM PRESIDENT.

He can't win no matter what he says, but only IF THE MEDIA PRESSES HIM ON IT
