Papadopoulos: Sessions Was ‘Enthusiastic' About Possible Putin, Candidate Trump Meeting
[Breitbart] TAPPER: Senator Jeff Sessions was there, too. PAPADOPOULOS: Yes TAPPER: At the table‐what was his response? PAPADOPOULOS: My recollection was that the senator was actually enthusiastic about a meeting between the candidate and President Putin. TAPPER: So you say that then senator now Attorney General Sessions was enthusiastic about the idea of candidate Trump meeting Putin, but he has said the exact opposite. He says‐he testified before Congress saying that he, quote, ’pushed back’ when you raised the possibility of a meeting with Russia. That’s not true you’re saying? PAPADOPOULOS: I don’t remember that. TAPPER: You don’t remember him pushing back? PAPADOPOULOS: No. TAPPER: You remember him saying that is good idea? PAPADOPOULOS: I remember him being enthusiastic of a potential meeting between the candidate and President Putin after I raised the question. Emphasis added Posted by: Besoeker 2018-09-09 |
