‘When President Trump was visiting Moscow back then I didn’t even know he was in Moscow.’ Trump and Putin pictured during Monday’s press conference in Helsinki (Picture: Getty) Putin insisted that he treated Trump with ‘utter respect’ and again denied knowing that the then tycoon was in town during the 2013 trip in question.

But here Trump in 2014 is claiming he met Putin. Who is telling the truth?
Notice how he says "I've done a lot of business with the Russians" and later he denies having done business with Russians.
It's right there in Trump's own words. The Russian Candidate starring Donald J. Trump.

Your link to the Metro doesn't say anything about Trump meeting Putin at all
He probably was lying about meeting Putin in 2014. Celebrities do all the time to boost their appeal. I would expect you to understand the entertainment business thou.My link to the Metro is just for Putin's claim and Trump's claim that they never met each other. But Trump told Letterman that he met Putin.
It's in the video that Trump says he met Putin.
The best defense for Trump is that he was lying about meeting Putin. But then who knows when he's ever telling the truth?
I remember Trump or an article saying way back that they were supposed to meet at the beauty pageant or whatever, but it never happened. So, it could of been a white lie of him saying he was supposed to have met him... not really meeting him.

It's getting harder all the time, isn't it. This responsibility Trump supporters feel for explaining that what he said wasn't what he really meant.
But I have a feeling that these things will soon become trivial when bigger fish are being fried.
Do you think I am making an excuse or something? Because I am not. I'm making a guess he wanted to lie in order to make himself sound more important, that's why I called it a white lie... from what I understand a white lie is a lie that has a hint of truth in it, but you extend it further than what it actually is for your own benefit.
white lie a harmless or trivial lie, especially one told to avoid hurting someone's feelings.

How would that be a "white" lie? He either met Putin or he didn't. That's just a lie.
Well, here are more "white lies." Trump in 2013 claimed to have a relationship with Putin.
A white lie is telling your wife the tight dress doesn't make her look fat. Harmless lies and lies to avoid hurting people are white lies. Self-aggrandizement is just plain lie.
Sorry if I misunderstood you. In my understanding a 'white lie' is one that doesn't hurt anyone and in fact saves someone from being hurt.

LOL!
Years ago I worked part time in a juke joint. It wasn't a nice place but the money was under the table and it was much needed after my newly ex-ed wife took everything but the blame. I worked weekends behind the bar slinging beer and dodging bullets.
A ex-felon, W.L., who had done 7 years for manslaughter, (killed a man with one punch) sat at the bar in his usual spot late one Saturday afternoon. He was actually a nice guy but he was not a person to be ****ed with.
A lady named Kelly, a regular, walked in and ordered a drink before she headed out to meet a date somewhere. Kelly, dressed in a yellow jumpsuit kind of thing, looked pretty good. She pranced for a minute and looked at W.L. (that's what everyone called him) and said, "W.L., do you thing this makes my ass look too large?"
W.L. took a quick look and said, "No, darling. Your ass is too large."
One quick swing with the beer mug knocked W.L. off the bar stool. We couldn't stop laughing, including W.L.
If a woman fishes for a compliment, give it. The world will be a more peaceful place for having done so. :thumbs: Women are worth it anyway.
Putin knew who Trump was.
And the truth is?Do you think I am making an excuse or something? Because I am not.

lol. I guess W.L was pretty tough laughing off getting hit by a beer mug.
I'm a Black man, so I've never understood how a woman having a big ass is an insult.

And the truth is?
So you agree that it is ridiculous to take anything the President says seriously and that he is incapable of telling the truth. Otherwise you ARE making excuses for him. In one way we are now "equal" to Russia since both countries now have leaders that lie constantly and cannot be trusted.
