And The Gadfly Thunk and he Thunk and he Thunk . . .

Hmmmm . . . . So this got The Gadfly to a thinkin' . . . .

The White House late Friday swatted down claims made by Russia’s new ambassador to the U.S. that he had held a “warm and friendly” introductory meeting with President Donald Trump earlier in the day.

“There was not a meeting,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in an email to TPM. “He was here for a credentialing ceremony with 12 other new ambassadors and their spouses.”

Anatoly Antonov was far more loquacious in his comments to the Russian press, characterizing the initial meeting as chummy.

“The atmosphere was good, constructive and friendly,” Antonov said, as quoted by TASS. “President Trump met me cordially. We agree with his staff members to continue our contacts.”

Lol.  Jeezus . . . .

The Russian Ambassador to the U.S. says a formal (he was quite descriptive) meeting took place between himself and *pResident Trump this morning.  Trump and his people are saying it never happened.  One of these two parties is brazenly lying.

And so here's what The Gadfly thunk:

Since both parties are prolific and well documented liars, each in their own right, let's approach it from this comically obvious angle . . .

If the Trump team is lying, it once fucking again begs the question, why is Trump meeting with Russians, in private, outside the view of the American people and the American press and then when confronted about it, lying?

And if the Russians are lying about this meeting having occurred -- well, that's some pretty fucking lousy, back-stabbing, ratfucking and conniving shit perpetrated by one of the highest level diplomats in a country that right wingers are fondly referring to as a,"friendly" nation -- dontcha' think?  . . . which naturally makes some (some of us anyhow) wonder then why it is that a lot of right-wing conservatives seem to hold such a bunch of conniving and ratfucking Russkies in such high regard these days anyways?

What a tangled web like-minded charlatans weave eh?
