CBS reporter Elizabeth Palmer was in Russia to seek out a possible lead to a rumor that someone may have heard something about in a conversation that probably took place nearby an official speaking on the phone with a minister in the government. Provided the stars were in alignment and the moon was just right.
Instead, she had to settle for the Russian president.
As Putin was entering the player’s box in full hockey gear, he and his interpreter decided to stop for a quick not-so-impromptu interview. The quickie didn’t go down exactly the way she anticipated.
PALMER: Sir…what…how will the firing of James Comey affect U.S.-Russian relations?
PUTIN (through interpreter): There will be no effect. Your question looks very funny for me. Don’t be angry with me. We have nothing to do with that. President Trump is acting in accordance with his competence, in accordance with his law and Constitution. What about us? Why we? You see I am going to play hockey with the hockey fans. And I invite you to do the same.
PALMER: I’ll be here and I’ll be watching. Thank you very much.
As you can plainly see, this was one hard-hitting interview, well worth the $800 plane ticket in coach. Was it just me or did Putin appear to be poking fun at the media? His interpreter actually looked a heck of a lot more fun to talk to than, say, Chuck Schumer (not to mention Schumer couldn’t sport a cool ’70s moustache like that, anyway).
As it turned out, the two back at the studio appeared to be SUPER impressed with Palmer’s incredible “get” and made sure to follow up with some hard-hitting questions of their own. The unnamed anchorman actually asked if the Russian press had any thoughts on the “Russian hack of the elections!” Yes, he really did.
To her credit, Palmer downplayed every single attempt on the parts of the anchor and anchoress to stir up a hornet’s nest. It seemed that they were in some sort of slight pain (or disinterest) when Palmer was not following through on the Trump dirt. Regardless, this is one of those interviews I probably already forgot.
Wait…what were we talking about?

Well it is easy to poke fun a baby killing libtards, you have to admit.
You go boy
Poking fun at habitually constant liars is easy to do.
Putin KNOWS How STUPID these people are!!!!
hmm….
Pretty good ..When even the Communist know !
Putin is a bad mofo. If we only had a leader with his sack
That reporter sure makes a lot of conclusions when all he did was pretty much laugh at her.
Did Russia attempt to influence the American election, the French election and on & on—Of course he did and he is laughing out his$#%&!@*at you ignorant bastards who are raining so much hell about it in investigations rather than actually doing something to stop it. Every time one of you ignorant liberals open your mouth you make this tyrant more brazen. Eventually you will get what your ignorance dictates.
PUTON IS DANGEROUS
