3. K&R

[titaniumsalute]

4. Gee so the Russians have the Oval office bugged????

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

5. Let's hear it Pootie!!

[democrank]

6. Can Putin be trusted?

Depends on his motive. He could have a recording or written transcript altered.

[athena]

33. No, he can't. I can't believe so many people are falling for this.

This is Russia we're talking about, people. The country that finds dissenters wherever they may be and assassinates them. The country that poisons Putin's political opponents. The country that hacked our last presidential election. Are you really going to trust them to provide any kind of evidence that has not been manipulated?

The Russians must be laughing at us and at our gullibility.

[Thrill]

7. So as people were saying, they likely took surveillance

Equipment into the Oval Office. What a damn fool Trump is

[Cha]

8. So pootin records in the oval office now

No, he and trump aren't in collusion and have been since the campaign from hell.

9. if this were a novel, no one would believe a word of it.

[bucolic_frolic]

10. so are these the "tapes" about loyalty that Trump referred to?

Russia is archiving oval office conversations?

or just when the ambassador and photography crew were there?

If the two revelations are combined - Trump's "tapes" and Putin claiming
he has the Ambassador's conversation - the possible implications are startling.

[wildeyed]

11. They let the Russians bring recording devices into the White House?

Super! Wonder how many they left behind.

[HAB911]

12. Maybe a not so sublte reminder to Dump

13. Before everyone freaks out about this...

...there were obviously camera people in the room; it would be just as easy to record video of the meeting (evening with just an iPhone).

[NightWatcher]

15. Susan Collins R just laughed at the idea that we'd accept "evidence" from pootie poot

Will not trust any evidence they provide.

[iluvtennis]

29. Agree with Collins, why would be take anything from Putin. GAH

[TalenaGor]

14. I don't even know what to say anymore....

[treestar]

16. It is odd to me that no

American media were invited. They'd all have video, but now we are dependent on the Russians for video of what went on in the WH. Strange.

[workinclasszero]

18. THE DAMN RUSSIANS ARE TAPING IN THE FUCKING WHITE HOUSE?!?!?!?!?!?!?

WWWWWWWTTTTTTTTFFFFFFF!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

[NewJeffCT]

34. That was my thought as well

WTF kind of Keystone Kops operation are they running there?

[grantcart]

19. Can hevtell us what Trump ordered for lunch 10 minutes ago?

[orangecrush]

21. Therr are no words for this

Surreal.

[justiceischeap]

22. I'm sure this was shot by TASS at the meeting between Trump, Lavrov and Kislyak

since they were allowed in the room... and no one is asking the question why Trump thought it was okay to "declassify" info in front of reporters (if that is indeed the source of the recording Putin wants to provide and not something more nefarious).

[Madam45for2923]

23. Of course he does! Sounds like the Putin we know.

[MontanaMama]

24. W.T. F?

By the time Congress gets off their lazy, wait and see asses. Putin will be SITTING the oval office instead of just taping. Get the Russians the HELL out of our house!

[workinclasszero]

27. No shit!

Putin might as well move into the Oval Office now and cut out the middle man, Benedict Trump!!

[L. Coyote]

25. And everything said in the Oval Office since then, plus the video feed.

You just know they placed many listening devices while there, and tiny cameras everywhere.

[apcalc]

26. Don't trust Pootie poot

To say he has a tape. He could produce one friendly to the asshole out of thin air.

See? Nothing here! Just good ol boys havin some handshakin fun....

[Mystery sage]

28. Wow

So day 8 of this meltdown starts with this.

[ananda]

31. In the CNN segment, Collins also said ..

.. nobody should trust anything coming from the Russians.

She wants subpoenas of 45's documents and tapes, though.

[Deb]

32. But of course he does, kitchen table crowd speculates russian created video as well

who knew adversaries could be so... helpful?

[SunSeeker]

38. I know, right?

36. SHARTUS let Lavrov, Kislyak and their plumbers into the oval office.

I'm sure Putin now has recordings of a LOT of oval office conversations.

[Amaryllis]

37. So I don't get it....is Gepetto now trying to destroy Pinnochio?
