One of the more bizarre and eye-catching parts of the newly released memos former FBI Director James Comey wrote after his conversations with President Trump is a comment Trump reportedly made at a Feb.
The president said 'the hookers thing' is nonsense but that Putin had told him 'we have some of the most beautiful hookers in the world. That is a strange thing to say to an FBI director on your third-ever meeting — in their first, Comey had briefed Trump on the Russia dossier compiled by British ex-spy Christopher Steele, which included the unsubstantiated "golden showers thing" — but it is also odd because officially, Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin had spoken only once, on a Jan.
Trump claimed to have met Putin several times between and — as CNN meticulously documents — including during a debate , though his story changed in On Jan. I have never met him and I don't know what he will do on the international arena. Comey says that on February 8, , Trump told him that Putin had told him that Russia had the best hookers in the world.
On January 17, , at a press conference, Putin said Russia had the best hookers in the world. So, maybe Putin told Trump the same thing right after his inauguration, in their first conversation, or perhaps Trump saw the quip on TV and thought it was directed at him, or Comey might have misunderstood Trump's comment. The possibilities aren't quite endless, but they are curious.
