President Trump created controversy of the highest offense to his own Country when he sided with Russia during a briefing.
He spoke to reporters who questioned if he believed that Russia was involved in interfering with the U.S. 2016 Elections.
He stood next to President Vladimir Putin and sided with him in the matter. Putin claimed that they didn’t interfere and Trump seemed to accept that response.
Trump then changed his tune and claimed he made a mistake when he responded to reporters.
But could it have been the pressure Trump felt from a Nation that wondered why he would deny his own Intelligence agency?
Why did the President speak in such a manner and why would he change his tone now?
I Would/Wouldn’t
In an effort to sort out what he said during his news briefing with Putin Trump tried to defend what he said recently.
“I said the word ‘would’ instead of ‘wouldn’t,'” Trump told reporters at the White House. “The sentence should have been, ‘I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be Russia.'”
Just over a day ago Trump had sided with Putin but made a different claim now he was back on home soil.
When asked about Russian collusion in 2016 Trump responded “I don’t see any reason why it would be.”
Could there have been a fear of Putin or was Trump simply trying to gain a friend in the Russian President?
Trump’s somewhat obsession with Putin caused many to wonder what the President could be thinking.
