The White House Transcript Is Missing the Most Explosive Part of the Trump–Putin Press Conference


https://www.theatlantic.com/amp/article/565385

quote:

It was perhaps the most explosive exchange in an incendiary press conference: Russian President Vladimir Putin appearing to frankly admit to a motive for, and maybe even to the act of, meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, despite repeatedly denying Russian interference in American politics during the rest of his appearance with Donald Trump in Finland on Monday.

But the exchange doesn’t appear in full in the White House’s live-stream or transcript of the press conference, and it’s missing entirely from the Kremlin’s transcript of the event. The White House did not immediately provide an explanation for the discrepancy.



quote:


White House transcript:

PRESIDENT PUTIN: That could be a first step, and we can also extend it. Options abound, and they all can be found in an appropriate legal framework.

Q: And did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?

PRESIDENT PUTIN: Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Because he talked about bringing the U.S.–Russia relationship back to normal.



quote:


Reality:

Vladimir Putin: That could be a first step, and we can also extend it. Options abound, and they all can be found in an appropriate legal framework.

Jeff Mason: President Putin, did you want President Trump to win the election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?

Putin: Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Because he talked about bringing the U.S.–Russia relationship back to normal.



quote:

Another strange wrinkle comes from the Russian government’s English-language transcript of the press conference. In contrast to its footage of the press conference, which features what really happened, the transcript does not include any piece of that key exchange.

Account closed permanently. I won't stand for abuse of authority by forum administration to censor criticism of a conservative radio host that celebrated the death of AIDS patients on his show. Maybe some day we'll speak again elsewhere.

The question of President Trump colluding with the Russians is so little believed - for good reason.

It has been long investigated with zippo - nothing - touching him.

"Scads of Russians who may never be touched have been indicted! People who worked for President Trump have been indicted for stuff that didn't happen in and are unconnected to the campaign!" Uh - that ain't too convincing that the Pres did any colluding. To any except the real, real "gone" TDS* afflicted peeps.

So - why would Putin have favored Candidate Trump?

Simple. Hillary and the Dems seem to have wanted WW III with Russia. Their talk during the election was quickly driven into that direction by Candidate Hillary.

Many here may not even recall her saying that she would treat the cyber-attacks by Russia as an act of war.

For a dictator of Russia, I can completely understand Vlad saying "dam*, I hope SHE dont win!"
