WASHINGTON President Donald Trump says he doesnt remember much about a March 2016 meeting with his campaign foreign policy adviser that is now front-and-center in special counsel Robert Muellers Russia probe.
Speaking to reporters outside the White House, Trump says: It was a very unimportant meeting. It took place a long time ago. I dont remember much about it.
Trumps former campaign adviser, George Papadopoulos, has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian officials. Papadopoulos later told agents he used that gathering to offer to arrange a meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The White House argues Papadopoulos was merely a campaign volunteer whose claims shouldnt be taken seriously.
******
For just being a "coffee boy" Papadopoulos really gets around. Meetings with Trump, Sessions, Carter Page,
the President of Greece, the President of Cyprus, and sitting @ a panel with GOP Senators & Congresspersons.

(343 posts)The real author of "art of the deal" said Trump lives in the here and now. He does not remember or care what he said 10 days ago or 10 minutes ago. Everything is a con, everything is about making him and his cronies richer. The biggest heist of all is his tax cut which will put millions in his pocket. The most corrupt, incompetent, and unqualified President ever. The saddest part is the way people kneel and kiss his ring for no reason than his money and power. To quote Tony Montana - First you get the money. (given to him by daddy), then you get the power (given to him by idiot voters taken in by his con) , then you get the women ( Ivanka and countless one night stands and ex wives, hanging on to his image and money ). Imagine him without daddy's money and connections. He would be some shit car salesman in Ohio, trying to get you to buy a Mazda. He would live in some crap shack house, with some ugly wife that might bang him once every few months. Maybe some kids that hated him thrown in. They would grow up to be worthless grifters too. And nobody would give a fuck what he thought or what his opinion on anything was. Just move the cars off the lot, asshole. Instead he's the leader of the free world. Amazing.
