George Papadopoulos, who was sentenced to two weeks in prison Friday for lying to the FBI, said Sunday that his “recollection differs” from that of Attorney General Jeff Sessions regarding a key campaign-era meeting.
Sessions testified last year that he “pushed back” when Papadopoulos suggested during a campaign meeting that Trump meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Later, three sources who attended the meeting told Reuters that, in the publication’s words, “Sessions had expressed no objections to Papadopoulos’ idea.”
Papadopoulos told ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos Sunday that Sessions had been “quite enthusiastic” about a potential Trump-Putin meeting.
Asked about Sessions claim that he “pushed back,” Papadopoulos said: “My recollection differs from Jeff Sessions’.”
Rubs hands together gleefully …
I have a feeling that the OSC is not yet done with Papado.
His fear of Trump was obvious.
You could see it in is eyes and hear it in his voice.
This is like watching drowning rats kill each other trying to get off the sinking ship, on the one hand I can’t look away from the spectacle but on the other hand I just can’t find it in me to root for any of them. Kind of hoping the ship catches on fire before it sinks.
I don’t recall hearing a plausible explanation as to why Sessions met with Kisliak on multiple occasions. But I do know he perjured himself over it, with guilt written all over his face. Makes one wonder why.
