Putin pours cold water on Trump's Hunter Biden hopes
If President Trump were looking for a little last-minute boost from Russian President Vladimir Putin, Putin had nothing for him on Sunday. In televised remarks on state TV, Putin "took the time to knock down what he made clear he regarded as false allegations from Trump about the Bidens," Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his son Hunter, Reuters reports. Putin said Trump's story about Hunter Biden getting money from the widow of a former Moscow mayor was news to him, even though Trump tried to tie Putin to the alleged payment.
In Ukraine, Putin said, Hunter Biden "had or maybe still has a business, I don't know. It doesn't concern us. It concerns the Americans and the Ukrainians." And regarding the money Hunter Biden made working for a Ukrainian company, he added, "I don't see anything criminal about this, at least we don't know anything about this (being criminal)."

(2,009 posts)4. Yes, great title to your post! And how sad for a U.S. president to be crawling on his belly . . .
to Vladimir Putin for help and support. If only Putin had said, "Trump? I don't know the guy. Maybe I met him a couple of times. I meet a lot of people, okay? But I don't really know him."
