Trump Says Putin ‘Means It’ About Not Meddling in U.S. Elections

DANANG, Vietnam — President Trump said on Saturday that he believed President Vladimir V. Putin was sincere in his denials of interference in the 2016 presidential elections, calling questions about Moscow’s meddling a politically motivated “hit job” that was hindering cooperation with Russia on life-or-death issues.

Speaking after meeting privately with Mr. Putin on the sideline of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit meeting in Danang, Vietnam, Mr. Trump said that he had again asked whether Russia had meddled in the contest, but that the continued focus on the issue was insulting to Mr. Putin.

Mr. Trump said it was time to move past the issue so that the United States and Russia could cooperate on confronting the nuclear threat from North Korea, solving the Syrian civil war and working together on Ukraine.

“He said he didn’t meddle — I asked him again,” Mr. Trump told reporters traveling with him aboard Air Force One as he flew to Hanoi for more meetings. “You can only ask so many times. I just asked him again. He said he absolutely did not meddle in our election. He did not do what they are saying he did.”

Mr. Trump did not answer a direct question about whether he believed Mr. Putin’s denials, but his account of the conversation indicated he was far more inclined to accept the Russian president’s assertions than those of his own intelligence agencies, which have concluded that Mr. Putin directed an elaborate effort to interfere in the vote.

“Every time he sees me he says, ‘I didn’t do that,’ and I really believe that when he tells me that, he means it,” Mr. Trump said of Mr. Putin. “I think he is very insulted by it, which is not a good thing for our country.”

Okay? So shut up about this Russian stuff already! Vlad's gettin' mad!

1992 was kind of dismal musically I thought, but with a few really stand out exceptions, some that remain rather unknown but have really stood up well.
My 1992 Top whatever list.

1. T-Bone Burnett --- "The Criminal Under My Own Hat" (T-Bone's ?th brush with fame--this one was nominated for a Grammy---I think it lost) Great idsc that I listen to still today.
2. REM "Automatic For The People" They finally hit their full potential with this one. Still inspiring to listen to.
3. Neil Young ----- "Harvest Moon" Not as influential as "Harvest" but nearly as good to listen to.
4. Peter Case ---- "Six Pack Of Love"
5. Kevin Welch & The Overtones ----- "Western Beat"
6. Arc Angels --- "Arc Angels"
7. Tracy Chapman ---- "Matters Of The Heart"
8. Cowboy Junkies ---- "Black Eyed Man" Laid back (even by C.Junkie standards!)..... this one has really grown on me over the years.
9. Lyle Lovett --- "Joshua Judges Ruth" Lyle in full form.
10. Gin Blossoms ----- "New Miserable Experience" (desert "jangle-rock" takes flight, alcohol, love, loss, and rock 'n roll)

Honorable mentions:
The Little Village release (though it really seemed better in theory)
Wallflowers --- "Wallflowers"
Extreme ---- "III Sides To Every Story"
and Dylan because he probably won another Grammy that year.


lol

Yeah, I forgot about Lyle Lovett. He had a great run of albums in the late 80s/early 90s. Was it just after that that he married Julia Roberts? I remember seeing both their faces on the cover of one of those supermarket checkout rags with some headline like "Beauty Marries Beast" -- which made me laugh, because I figured Lyle with all his talent was the one marrying down.

I almost put the peter Case album on my list but figured nobody would know who he is!

you should have.....if it is your fav put it on.....btw..all of us here have heard of him.

Peter's got a couple of better CD's comin' up in the future (hopefully!) and also post 1992 I know of a couple good un's :-)

a couple of reasons i enjoy the lists is that you learn new music from other people's choices and during your research you really get to see the breadth of each year and how music evolves.....i enjoy it....

trump was called an old lunatic by kim un..trump was offended by old but not lunatic.

this is all part of the trump effect......

Oh good, you're giving Trump credit for cutting the pervs and scumbags out of Hollywood.

And when did most of these scandalous incidents occur...? Oh, that would be the Obama effect.

the media has now started to call all of the women making allegations the trump effect.

This would sound far-fetched if it were about Obama or Dubya, but with Trump ... ?

Spies Suspect Kremlin Is Pushing Dozens of Fake Trump Sex Tapes

As many as a dozen intelligence services worldwide, on four continents, are in possession of some sort of “Trump tape” featuring sexual escapades of a controversial nature; in some cases, the women involved appear to be underage. Some of these tapes have been shared with the Mueller investigation.

One Western intelligence agency with a solid professional reputation is in possession of an unpleasant Trump tape that they assess “with high confidence” is bona fide, i.e. exactly what it appears to be. They obtained the tape from a trusted source who plausibly had access to it. Over the decades, Trump has traveled widely—including to Russia more than once—and thereby exposed himself to surreptitious filming in numerous countries.

However, here’s the rub: Many of the “Trump tapes” floating around in spy circles worldwide cannot be verified, while some of them are obvious fakes. The Western spy agency that’s holding a Trump tape they’re pretty sure is real has also been approached two other times with tapes that were less solid—and one of them was transparently fake.

It’s obvious to savvy Western counterspies that someone is spreading fake Trump tapes—not all of them high quality—to muddy the waters. The obvious suspect, of course, is the Kremlin. Since the Russians know all about President Trump’s decades of personal antics, including what kompromat exists on him, they appear to be pushing dubious and unverifiable tapes, some of them obviously fake, to create chaos and confusion.

It’s working, and in the current climate, it seems doubtful that any Trump tape can be verified sufficiently to have a mainstream journalistic outfit report its details. After all, with multiple fakes out there, any bona fide tape would require not just rock-solid technical authentication, but also firming up the exact place and date of the incident, plus confirmation from the girl(s) caught on camera too. That seems like an insurmountably high bar to clear at present.

Who knows?

Lot of good albums on dino's '93 list. Here are a few more from a decent year:

Emmylou Harris -- Cowgirl's Prayer
Chris Isaak -- San Francisco Days
Lemonheads -- Come on Feel the Lemonheads
Blue Rodeo -- Five Days in July
Morphine -- Cure for Pain
Breeders -- Last Splash
Mazzy Star -- So Tonight That I Might See

i considered most of them....i did forget emmylou harris.

that story is incredible...if any films are real they know......there must be so much not known by the public or even congress.
