Exclusive: Trump never raised Russia's Taliban bounties with Putin
Source: Axios
Trump spoke with Putin on Thursday, and subsequently deflected a question about whether hed raised the alleged bounty scheme, saying on Monday: We don't talk about what we discussed, but we had plenty of discussion.
In Tuesdays interview, he was definitive:
I have never discussed it with him.
Pressed on why he didnt raise the matter in Thursdays call, he said: That was a phone call to discuss other things, and frankly thats an issue that many people said was fake news.
Trump has spoken to Putin at least eight times since intelligence about the alleged Russian bounties was reportedly included in the President's Daily Brief his written intelligence briefing in late February.

When we do find out what our traitor in the white house did speak about with his Russian master, it should seal the fate of any conservative, that they too supported a traitor and that therefore, they were traitors too.

He's afraid if he brings it up, Putin won't help him in this election.
