Trump and Putin, Putin and Trump. What a couple.
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday jumped to the defense of Donald Trump, saying that President Barack Obama and the media are trying to “undermine the legitimacy” of the man he allegedly tried to get elected.
“We are witnessing an ongoing acute political struggle in the U.S., whose task is to undermine the legitimacy of the president-elect,” Putin told the Russian news agency Interfax, according to Business Insider on Tuesday. He also accused the authors of the Trump dossier of being “worse than prostitutes” and argued that “the media frenzy surrounding Trump speaks of the degradation of U.S. political elites.”
