    Trump backpedaled on one sentence to soften the beating he was taking over it. He has repeatedly sided with Russia against the United States and our allies.

    For those who are interested in facts: the transcript of both Trump's and Putin's opening remarks followed by further remarks -- https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...speak-after-meeting-in-helsinki-idUSKBN1K624S

    Not how many times he has kind or fawning remarks about Putin and Russia and how many times he attacks Americans and our intelligence and law enforcement agencies.

    Example:
    “The probe is a disaster for our country. I think it has kept us apart. There was no collusion at all..., so far that I know virtually nothing related to the campaign. It was a clean campaign. I beat Hillary Clinton easily and frankly we beat her…We won that race and it’s a shame that there can be even a little bit of a cloud over it.

    “This had a negative impact upon the relationship between the two biggest nuclear powers of the world.

    “There was no collusion, I did not know the president (Putin), there was nobody to collude with ... We ran a brilliant campaign and that is why I am president.”

    “I wonder why the FBI did not take the server. Where is the server? I want to know where is it, and what is the server saying? With that, all I can do is ask the question.

    “Putin just said it’s not Russia. I do not see any reason why it should be ... It (the election dispute) will go on for a while but it cannot be (resolved) unless we know what happened to the server.

    “What happened to Hillary Clinton’s emails — 33,000 just gone, gone.”

    “I have great confidence in my intelligence people but President Putin was extremely strong and confident in his denial today.”

    “He offered to have (our) people working on the case come and work with their (Russian) people on the case.”

    I especially love how easily Trump accepts the idea of the GRU working with our intel agencies, examining our evidence, our methods, etc.

    We elected a traitorous idiot who has no concept of what it means to defend America.

    How many of you accused Obama of doing Putin's bidding? He said on camera for Putin to wait till after the election because then he would have more room to wiggle. I heard crickets from the left in that regards.

    Trump does what Trump wants to do....period. So claim that Trump didn't have any money so the Russians just gave Trump $1 billion dollars at some point? WTF? Can you even hear yourself? They gave a billion or more dollars to someone who had by every experts account a tiny chance of becoming the President, that is who the Russians bought off? This pathetic, infantile, idiotic, stupid, moronic conpsiracy theory is a complete joke.

    If the washington dc police obey a “hands-off” order to not look closely at the Seth Rich murder there will be no evidence

    And it appears that someone gave that order

    This is a joke of a retraction, he clearly doesn't believe it, its clearly for PR purposes, he legitimately doesn't think Russia did it.

    Complete idiot move from Trump.

    I hope that somebody somewhere somehow is totally embarrassed by that weak-kneed, asinine, non-explanation .

    Pathetic that he had to read it word for word ….that his handlers had to write for him....
