Mr. Paige left the campaign shortly after trump’s trip, and since then advisers staff tried to distance themselves from him.
Court records revealed Monday showed that another adviser to trump, George Papadopoulos, met with Russian officials in 2016 and has received «thousands of emails», which referred to the main opponent , Hillary Clinton.
In the framework of cooperation with the investigation Papadopoulos confessed to perjury and reported that trump had not objected to meeting with Putin before the election.
On the eve of his 12-day trip in Asia the President said the statement by the former adviser.
«I don’t remember this meeting – confessed tramp. It was a bad meeting that was very long time ago.»
As CNN reports, the President just a week ago «boasted» of his excellent memory, which does not agree with his current statement.
«I’m very smart people, trump said. – I have a brilliant memory».
The President recalled the episode, but he’s forgotten that he used that expression.
