It suggests that they know the hook is getting closer.
Did they have anything to say about sanctions bot being enforced?

that Trump has taken no action at all against Russia... in essence, conspiring to help them by turning a blind eye. And it's a pretty good bet that the collusion is much more sinister than just that.

<snip>
Allegations of links between Russia and Donald Trump’s former campaign manager were fabricated by the US President’s opponents as a weapon against him, Vladimir Putin has claimed.

Reports Mr Putin’s relatives had been in contact with the Trump administration were untrue, the Russian President told a briefing at the end of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Vietnam.

Earlier, Mr Trump said the accusations had hurt Mr Putin’s feelings.

“He said he didn’t meddle,” the US leader told reporters aboard Air Force One. “I asked him again. You can only ask so many times... He said he absolutely did not meddle in our election. He did not do what they are saying he did.

"He said he didn't meddle. He said he didn't meddle. I asked him again. You can only ask so many times," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew from Da Nang to Hanoi in Vietnam. Trump spoke to Putin three times on the sidelines of summit here, where the Russia meddling issue arose.

"Every time he sees me, he says, 'I didn't do that,' " Trump said. "And I believe, I really believe, that when he tells me that, he means it."

i'm sure drumpf and putin have an understanding: putin couldn't give 2 shits what platitudes drumpf SAYS to the press as long as he doesn't actually take any actions that hurt russian interests. So where is the RNC memo about all the things drumpf has done to halt putin's advances into our government and worldwide affairs?

In an interview with NBC's Lester Holt, Trump discussed the firing of former FBI Director James Comey.
"When I decided to just do it I said to myself, I said, 'You know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story," Trump told Holt.

MAY 18, 2017

Trump said he was the target of a "witch hunt" the day after the Justice Department announced the appointment of a special counsel to look into Russian interference in the presidential election.
