Funny. This is what we thought we were getting last election. Trump is going to bring change alrighty, but people aren't going to like it. Not with all the safety regulations being dismantled. The EPA is now a shell of what it used to be. I think that some of what Pruitt is doing has been blocked by the courts. Congress passed it in the first place and that's why I think that a lot of what he's trying to do isn't going to happen. This is what I'm hoping anyway.

Kelly's attitude was pretty rude if you ask me. Would she have taken that tone with Obama or Bibi? Hillary? Nope. The people on Twitter were beyond stupid. IMO.

All she is doing is attempting to use 'gotcha' questions in order to "catapult the propaganda".

Megyn Kelly, "Mr. President, many people have reported you are still beating your wife. Can you now tell us, for a fact, that you are not still beating her?"

Putin, "I do not beat my wife and I never have beaten her."

Megyn Kelly, "Seventeen professional intelligence agencies have publicly stated they have definitive proof you are still beating your wife. What can you tell us to prove you are no longer beating your wife? Most Americans are very concerned about wife beatings, especially when done by Russian Presidents, and have a right to an honest answer."

Putin, "Let me repeat, I do not beat my wife and I never have beaten her. Your intelligence agencies have not submitted proof that would stand up in a court of law."

Megyn Kelly, "Are you saying that our 17 very honorable intelligence agencies are ALL lying to the American people when they state that they have proof, beyond a reasonable doubt, that you, Mr. President, are still beating your wife?"

rinse, lather, repeat

Putin is a very patient man. Very few would put up with Kelly's bullshit for very long.

I'm nominating Megyn Kelly for the Cathy Newman Award.

@CB I actually watched the June 2017 version, where she posed questions to Putin. What transpired was exactly as you analogue. As such, I didn't even watch this most recent one, posted by the OP (our pal snoopy); it's just too painful to endure that idiotic tactic she employs.

Here's a nice little takedown of Kelly.

@snoopydawg Olive Stone was racked over the proverbial coals for not being insulting or tough enough on Putin. Every interaction with Putin (or Lavrov) be it press or diplomatic must be a confrontation. It is almost like every interview, interaction, etc. with Russians should result in them being punched out. And this is not just true with American media, but also European media.

Why Putin gave her a second shot at an interview is beyond me. I can only speculate it is to draw attention to how Putin openly interacts with the West, but the West in turm attempts to shut down Russian media access.

you sure sound like a run-of-the-mill bandwagon thinker. "Sleeping with bears"? Really? In the list of nations to worry about, the US is #1 and Russia is quite far down the list.

This is the uncut version which most Americans did not see from June 2017.

if not, then how can she tell what he was saying. If not, then it makes sense for her to keep pushing that bs that he indeed ordered people to interfere. For gawd's sake, she asked, he answered and then she asked the same damn question again.

His pointing out the electorate system pretty much sums up that our individual votes don't matter, therefore it doesn't matter that Her won by 3 million more votes. The bottom line is Trump is president because he the 3 states that she didn't bother to go to. Even though people were screaming for help.

@snoopydawg
was undemocratic. Maybe if President Obama and SoS Clinton would have listened to Putin, instead of telling him to mind his own business, Her Heinousness would now be President.

CNN LARRY KING LIVE
Interview With Russian Prime Minister Putin
...
"Now, as regards to democracy, this has been a long-term dispute with our American colleagues," Putin said. "I'd like to recall the fact that twice, twice, in the history of the United States of America, there were cases, the candidate to the presidency who subsequently became president of the United States, who was voted by majority of electorate, with the delegates presenting the lesser number of electorate as a whole. Is that democracy?"

@CB

One (1) private firm co-founded by a Russia hater, Crowdstrike, prepared a biased and unsubstantiated report on Russia that three (3) US intelligence agencies partly or fully signed off on for various nefarious reasons, which obviously means that all seventeen (17) intelligence agencies know that Putin himself personally hacked the 2016 election and is also a big poopy-head.

Perhaps we should stop worrying so much about "why Johnny can't read" and start worrying more about "why Megyn can't add".

Here's something else that doesn't get covered by the mainstream media. The DNC refused to let the FBI examine their computers. One would think that if those 17 intelligence agencies are going to definitely say that "Russia hacked the DNC computers, that they would have at least examined them. Maybe that's just me ...

Putin must have heard this from countless Americans and some media on the internet, which obviously gave him the idea - no wonder they need to censor the citizens of world to get The Mad Bomber safely in! They might give other people the idea that Americans should be encouraged, by cute puppy pics on FB, to freely vote their consciences and for their own interests - especially where their immediate survival and that of the world is concerned - even in a blatantly rigged system where no real electoral choice is permitted them. But if an obvious landslide wouldn't work, why knock voters off the rolls and make voting difficult-to-impossible where somebody who actually wants to serve the public interest finally runs in a Dem primary?

But as we know, Hillary is deaf to any suggestion that she doesn't Know Best. (And I'm still glad that she didn't get in to immediately bring in Bibi to help with policy and to start shooting down Russian planes in Syria with that illegal No-Fly Zone she wanted to declare in somebody else's country that TPTB wanted next... We're all still alive at this point - cool, huh? Despite Trump and his enabling of polluters, just as Hilary would have more unreportedly have done...)
