So we're interviewing Putin 'cause we want to hear what our leader has to say?

We don't historically interview Putin. But all of a sudden Putin is agreeing to interviews with American media. So I guess we need to know what our new leader, Putin, has to say about things?

I guess he approves of the tax cuts? And the new health care bill? What about infrastucture? Does he approve of that? How much does Putin think we should spend on infrastructure?

If Lester Holt had worn the same outfit, people wouldn't be saying anything

On edit: the dress itself. As my late mom would have said, it's cut down to here and up to there. Accessorized by 5 inch, ankle strap stiletto pumps. From the preview clips, she did a pretty good job with the interview, but the f#ck me getup is more than a bit much for a 7 p.m Sunday show.

Everything you say can be used against you.... even for Dictators of other countries.

I am not sure what it is called, but she turned her attention away from him, laughed, lowered her voice and stated a fact, more than asking a question. Definitely fishing for him to deny her.

If they were really there because they loved Putin, their faces would not be grimacing as if they were having a baby.
