Seriously. It seems like everyone is being petty. But any one of these would have been a "scandal" under Obama that dragged on for months. Sex scandals. Electoral defeats. Diplomatic meetings with shady world leaders. Appointment of unqualified judges. That's one weekend! But my favorite one over the weekend is the Putin conversation.
CIA: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
NSA: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
FBI: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
Congressional Investigators: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
AGs Office: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
Tech Industry: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
Media: Hey it looks like the Russians meddled with the elections.
Trump: Liars.
Putin: Hey, I totally didn't meddle in your elections.
Trump: Seems legit.
That's pretty funny, but it gets so much better. The Russians say the two never even talked about the issue:

1) Trump believed Putin who is now lying about that very conversation
or
2) Trump is lying about the conversation.
Either way its a really sad day for US foreign policy. Which is worse, believing a KGB Agent over US intelligence agencies and then getting played, or making crap up when it would easily be called out. It's a truly amazing lack of awareness. Like he's still giving second rate celebrity interviews to the press about issues people will forget day to day. I assume Russian media covered the event again, so if Trump challenges them on it (like the IQ test) it could be even sadder.
