Putin and Trump shared a laugh about journalists today
President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly shared a laugh about the free press before their meeting Friday at the G-20 summit in Germany. The Guardian's Alex Luhn reported that as journalists were "being ushered out of the room" ahead of Trump and Putin's sit-down, Putin leaned over to Trump and asked: "These are the ones that insulted you?" Putin then gestured towards the press.
Trump nodded, and the two world leaders sat back chuckling.
