I sure wouldn't say it was a perfect conversation.

But that's because I was born here and understand the American English language. Conversations can be comprehensive, argumentative, and even innocent, but the word perfect has no meaning in that context. I can understand if a foreigner with limited skills in English like a Russian would say "It vas perfect conversation that we had", but not someone who went to an American school and lived here all their life. Maybe Trump was reading instructions on what to say from Putin?

Trump was out lying again today saying everybody's been calling him to say it was a perfect conversation. He names Lindsey Graham and Rick Scott in particular. It's time for the media to ask those men what constitutes a "perfect conversation" and what they meant by that. Perhaps they mean one person spoke, and another replied...perfect!
