After NBC’s Megyn Kelly sat down with Russian President Vladimir Putin, an interview which Oliver Stone said sucked, NBC cut out a joke made by Putin in response to a question about his relationship with former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn – who Putin was pictured with at a state dinner.
Quite frankly, the entire interview was a disaster – with Putin basically destroying Kelly on every question. (Full interview below)
The joke
When asked “What is your relationship with Mr. Flynn?” Putin responded with:
With you, with you personally, I have a much closer relationship than with Mr. Flynn. We met yesterday evening. Today we worked all day together, we are meeting again right now.
Putin then joked that because of how much closer Megyn was to him than Mike Flynn, by American standards she should be punished:
Flynn was fired from work. You need to be simply arrested and put in jail!
That was apparently too spicy for NBC…

I am even surprised Putin would bother giving interviews knowing the US media conspires against him and Russia.
When your enemy is making a blunder, don’t interrupt them. Why would he not let the American media show themselves to be the fools they are, to expose and ridicule their McCarthy era witch hunt?
