WASHINGTON President Donald Trump says he doesnt remember much about a March 2016 meeting with his campaign foreign policy adviser that is now front-and-center in special counsel Robert Muellers Russia probe.
Speaking to reporters outside the White House, Trump says: It was a very unimportant meeting. It took place a long time ago. I dont remember much about it.
Trumps former campaign adviser, George Papadopoulos, has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian officials. Papadopoulos later told agents he used that gathering to offer to arrange a meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The White House argues Papadopoulos was merely a campaign volunteer whose claims shouldnt be taken seriously.
******
For just being a "coffee boy" Papadopoulos really gets around. Meetings with Trump, Sessions, Carter Page,
the President of Greece, the President of Cyprus, and sitting @ a panel with GOP Senators & Congresspersons.
