‘I Don’t Know What You’re Referring To’: NBC’s Katy Tur Doesn’t Remember Obama Promising
Mediaite ^ | 02/20/2017 | Alex Griswold

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.

no, Medvedev was the President of Russia in 2012 when Obama had the “hot mike” conversation.

Obama didn’t lean over to Putin. He leaned over to a Russian minister (can’t remember which one) and told him to tell Vladimir Putin that he’d have more flexibility after his reelection. Our people have to keep these details straight or the MSM will attack relentlessly.

This is more of a problem with the Republican Party than anything else. I’m not in politics and I remember that it wasn’t Putin that Obama was leaning over to but then President of Russia Medvedev!!! The inability for our side to be unison in one unified voice is really disturbing. See Video clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqmvm5pFvKU

The MSM new meme seems to now quadruple down on the deceit
and to question the sanity of anyone that doesn’t do the goose step and questions their standard fairy tales ( Islam religion of peace , Russians hacked the election, all illegals are noble dreamers , etc..)

Yes, it was to Medvedev. And Medvedev said, “I’ll tell Vladimir.”

I could be that they honestly do not hear any news that is reported outside of their bubble.
