Trump told golfer John Daly that he threatened Putin with 'hitting Moscow'
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-told-golfer-john-daly-that-he-threatened-putin-with-hitting-moscow/ar-AAUCN22In a phone call Thursday with golfer John Daly, former President Donald Trump talked about nuclear weapons and threats he says he made to Russian President Vladimir Putin
"They're all saying, 'Oh he's a nuclear power,'" Trump said of Putin on the call, which Daly put on speaker phone at the at the Hoag Classic tournament in California. "It's like they're afraid of him."
A bystander filmed Daly, who took the call while enjoying food and drinks inside the Newport Beach Country Club.
"You know, he was a friend of mine," Trump continued. "I got along great with him. I say, 'Vladimir, if you do it, we're hitting Moscow. I said, 'We're gonna hit Moscow.'"

Trump said, had he been there,
he would have gone into the school unarmed and taken down the shooter.

(820 posts)"I say, 'Vladimir, if you do it, we're hitting Moscow." . . .
That is present tense. He's telling a story about how he would be the big man now, at this point, when he never was the "big man" when he was around Putin. It is just another lie.
If he ever told Putin "We're gonna hit Moscow," World War III would have started right then. Do you think if he said that to Putin he should have informed his advisers? He didn't allow documentation of his conversations with Putin. He never said this. He is bragging.
