Donald Trump repeatedly dodged a question about whether he had spoken to Russian President Vladimir Putin after his presidency ended but added that it would have been a “smart thing” if he had, the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Trump’s refusal to answer questions directly about his relationship with Mr. Putin was consistent with the tone throughout Tuesday’s interview, which took place in a ballroom of the Fairmont hotel.”
“The former president frequently ignored the thrust of the questions he was asked, instead giving meandering responses that included unrelated points and hard-to-follow anecdotes. He frequently dwelt on how nicely or poorly he felt that various people, institutions and corporations had treated him.”
