Two points:
1) Two wrongs don't make a right. "Both sides!!" has never been a good defense, and yelling "Obama, too!" is not a valid defense here, either.
2) Did it occur in the same political context? Stop being so obtuse here - it's very clear why people are looking at this skeptically considering everything else going on.
It's not proof of anything, per se - but anyone with enough sense of the world would realize why this is the kind of thing that you disclose. This could have been a non-story. Disclose and move on. The end.
Agreed, but according to the left, this is old and "Not Now." so therefore, it old news and does not matter

Agreed again, but when the left will admit that there own has done the EXACT same thing, rather than call it old new and NOT NOW....then maybe we can move forward....

When do you have to disclose anything, after you've filled out your SC paperwork?
It never should have been a story or all those people that were there would have said something....
DO you know every meeting that happened with any president, dinner or not?
That's the problem, nobody does... except Trump, Putin and Putin's translator. You know who else does not know, the State Department, National Security Advisor, CIA, joint chiefs of staff, etc.

You still don't care that obama stated he would have more leeway for putin when he was re-elected....
Amazing....
As far as Obama, relations deteriorated during his administration with Russia as Obama and the EU were imposing sanctions on Russia for Crimea, and, as I further recall, there were no Russian hacks into Romney's email accounts.

So when are you Trumpsters going to get tired of his lying to you? He and the whole Trump family are con-artists and salesmen. This isn't a reality show you know!

Wait until they find out where the idea for "the wall" came from, why it was given that phrase and why trump was encouraged to use it. Fiddle = Trump Voters, Bow = Trump's insatiable need for adoration.
Thought the tweet was a joke. Now I'm seeing it is referring probably to an exchange 'in full view' of others but without anyone but Putin & his translator to confirm or deny content. Well isn't that reassuring -- lololololol.
Meh -- it's questionable -- but once again --Trump has no consideration that sitting down having a one on one with Putin without any American translators may not be the wisest thing for him to do.
He doesn't care, he doesn't get it -- he's ignorant, naive, awkward.
And apparently didn't feel that he needed an interpreter, because relying on Putin's interpreter was good enough. Not like Putin's interpreter might, you know, tend to shade things in Putin's favor or anything.
Aside from the interpreter issue, why wasn't this information made public? What is Donald Trump hiding??
The stupidity of the American Public is simply amazing...
