‘I Don’t Know What You’re Referring To’: NBC’s Katy Tur Doesn’t Remember Obama Promising

When a Republican congressman on MSNBC brought up a 2012 incident where President Barack Obama was caught on a hot mic promising to give Russia’s Vladimir Putin a little more “flexibility” after the election, NBC journalist and MSNBC host Katy Tur seemed not to recall the incident.

..

“Well, I think it was Obama that leaned over to Putin and said, ‘I’ll have a little more flexibility to give you what you want after the re-election,’” Rooney responded.

Tur paused for a moment. “I’m sorry, I don’t know what you’re referring to, Congressman,” she said.

Obama said it to the Russian Ambassador to tell Putin.

The Administration should put that video of Hussein telling the Russian ambassador to wait until after the election everywhere. - He should show it, it is a short clip, at every press conference as soon as someone makes the suggestion that the Putin is influencing him.

She is either stupid or a liar. Trump was right to vilify her.

In general, I think he is too easy on the press. I'm serious.

I don’t place any faith in Snopes.

They have been shown to have a very liberal agenda and also to create their own false/fake news.

Kinda like having CNN create a #FAKENEWS group to fact check themselves.

I think it was actually Obama talking to Medvedev — but the same thing was said “Tell Vladimir I’ll have a little more flexibility after the election,” or something to that effect.

Well I remember it. Of course, I’m not a lying, left-wing, scum-bag reporter.

The exchange between the US and Russian presidents was picked up by microphone without either leader apparently knowing.

Mr Medvedev, who steps down in May, said he would pass on Mr Obama’s message to his successor Vladimir Putin, according to an audio recording of comments the two leaders made during a meeting in Seoul, South Korea.

Mr Obama says: “On all these issues, but particularly missile defence, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space.”

Mr Medvedev replies: “Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you …”

Mr Obama retorts: “This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.”

Liberals have very selective memories. That is why Trump calls them liars.


Its only going to get worse, like dementia.

Would someone on Trump’s staff be bold enough to tweet the episode 0bama said? That is his flexibility comments?
