But that doesn't mean that because the President this Mr Putin is a good guy, that means it must be so.
Especially when flying in the confirmed evidence of his own security advisers, people who make their living from finding out about hostile foreign activity, including that of Russia.
President Trump is someone who puts his own personal impressions and feelings above hard evidence, and that is not the way experienced politicians behave - which of course President Trump is not.
This is a man who disgracefully maligned the British Prime Minister in a national British tabloid, and then denied what he had said as 'fake news' even though the paper has a transcript of his interview!
The fact that you think this immature egotistical arrogant idiot deserves defending is frankly beyond belief.
