Key takeaways from our commander in chief, on the verge of meeting with Putin right after the second official recognition and indictment of Putin-led operatives who are evidenced to have committed crimes against the U.S.
1. Trump claims he has absolutely no idea what goals he has for the meeting. Low expectations.
2. Trump rambles and believes meetings are to be believed in and are good...apparently without reservation.
3. He had not even thought of discussing extradition of the Russians who committed crimes against the U.S. with Putin.
4. He blames the hacking from Russia on Obama
5. He blames the victims, the DNC, for getting hacked
============================================
Reporter: What's your goal from the Putin meeting?
Trump: "Uhh...I'll let you know after the meeting. I have absolutely...it was mutually agreed let's have a meeting, I think it's a good thing f...to meet I do Believe in meetings. I believe having a meeting with chairmen Kim was a good thing..... So having meetings with Russia, China, North Korea, I believe in it."
Reporter: The Russians who were indicted, would you ask Putin to send them here?
Trump: "Well I might, I hadn't thought of that, I'll certainly be asking about that. But again this was during the Obama administration, they were doing whatever they were doing during the Obama administration. And I heared they trying to hack into the RNC, but we had much better defenses, I've been told that by a number of people. "
Trump: "And I heard that they were trying, or people were trying, to hack into the RNC too," the president continued. "The Republican National Committee. But we had much better defenses. I've been told that by a number of people. We had much better defenses, so they couldn't. I think the DNC should be ashamed of themselves for allowing themselves to be hacked.
