Vladimir Putin Mentions George Soros, MAGA World Swoons
Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters at a joint press conference with President Donald Trump today that his government did not interfere with the 2016 general election in the United States and name-dropped billionaire philanthropist George Soros during his denial, thrilling right-wing conspiracy theorists.
When a reporter asked Trump whether he believed Putin, who denies attempting to interfere in American elections, or American intelligence agencies who unanimously agree that Russia did attempt to interfere, Trump responded, in a roundabout way, that he was more inclined to believe Putin.
Putin added to Trumps response, saying, The Concord company is being accused of interference but this company does not institute the Russia state, does not represent the Russia state, and I brought several examples before. You have a lot of individuals in the United Statestake George Soros, for instance, with multi-billion capitalsbut it doesnt make his position, his posture, the posture of the United States.
Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones took to Infowars shortly after the press conference to excitedly present a video of Putins statement:
Anna Khait, a former contestant on the CBS show Survivor who has been welcomed into self-dubbed New Right internet circles after she declared herself to be red pilled, expressed joy that Putin mentioned Soros. Khait is a conspiracy theorist who affiliates with unabashed conspiracy theorist Liz Crokin and shares some of Crokins same beliefs about the alleged existence of a global satanic pedophile ring.
