HAMBURG, Germany — The Latest on the Group of 20 summit (all times local):

4:28 p.m.

Russian President Vladimir Putin says he thinks U.S. President Donald Trump believed his in-person denials of Russian meddling in the U.S. presidential vote.

Putin spoke Saturday after the Group of 20 summit where he and Trump had their first face to face meeting.

He said Trump asked him numerous questions about Russia’s alleged interference in the U.S. election during a lengthy discussion on the issue.

Putin says he thinks his answers satisfied Trump, but added that Trump’s opinion would be better sought from the U.S. president himself.

He says Moscow and Washington would be able to improve their ties if the two countries keep relating the way he and Trump did.

I would love to see some evidence other than CNN and MSNBC talking about that which has not been seen.

So its he said, he said?

Who the heck cares? This isn’t a court of law and Russia isn’t on trial in one.

National differences are a part of life.

There's still no proof. A majority of states won't turn over election data; there can't be a proper investigation. The DNC computers still aren't in the hands of investigators. Those Pakistanis hired by dems for computer work seem mighty suspicious, but there's no push to see what their involvement might be.

What's my point? NO ONE should believe the "Russian hacking" story. If there were proof, we would've seen it by now.

Maybe Russia did do it but if they did, they helped Americans see Hillary Clinton for who she really was. We should be owing them thanks rather than blame them for hurting her.

That’s what its really all about.

So if Russia did it. Thank you Russia!

Next week the WP will be reporting that Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead, and that there was possible collusion between Trump and the Russians to steal the election.

Yup.

We’ll never have all the data and can stand back to assess the true picture.

Punishing Russia will only muddy the waters and our fake news media is far more interested in discrediting Trump than in finding out what really happened in the 2016 election.

When all is said and done, people in the country don’t care. After six months of looking and looking and looking, no one has found any proof of Trump colluding with Russia.

And all the Washington investigations into this will go exactly nowhere.

Trump and I believe Putin.

Until which time we see evidence to the contrary, based on more than the opinion of embeds in our intelligence community from the Obama subversives trying to save Hillary’s floundering campaign.

What Putin “believes” is what Trump wants him to believe. Whether or not that belief is accurate is another matter entirely.

Well they gotta have some dead horse to beat or else the public will finally realize that Barry filled the government, and a good many cities, with exactly the Muzzie bastards that have sworn to destroy the US.

Obviously, the Russians hacked the election. Comey said his guys talked to the DNC guys. What more proof could anyone possibly need? That’s a thorough investigation! Lol

Comey also said Cankles broke the law but no prosecutor in their right mind would dare go after her.

What do they expect Putin to say? They would never admit it. The MSM has no facts to back up their claim.

I’d still like to know exactly how far Obama went to interfere in the Israeli elections. That is, how much money he really spent, and what was the extent of US intelligence service actions against Netanyahu. We know Obama interfered, just not the extent of it. Way more evidence of US interference there than of Russian interference in 2016.

Where is the proof? Why are we not looking at the Dem computers and taking their word for it?

Occam's Razor says Russian Communists sympathizers conspired with the DNC, and the blame Trump game is an attempt to cover the obvious.
