Trump Claims To Have Met Putin In Newly Resurfaced Interview From 2015


In a newly resurfaced 2015 radio interview, Donald Trump claimed that he met Russian President Vladimir Putin and that they "got along great," contradicting his later campaign trail claims that he never met or spoke with Putin.

"Have you ever met Vladimir Putin?" conservative talk radio host Michael Savage asked Trump in the exchange, resurfaced Tuesday by an opposition research group and flagged by Yahoo News.

"Yes," Trump replied.

"You have?" Savage pressed.

Trump actually sounds a little sharper during this interview than he did in the debates and in the rallies to me. Anyone else?

He does sound sharper, but it is because he is a neophyte and didn't have real competition at this point.

dRumpf is a psychopathological liar, and a complete basket case.
