After months of back-and-forth and internet-based intrigue, Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin finally met face-to-face ― like if “You’ve Got Mail” ended with geopolitical upheaval. Trump said that he and Putin discussed ‘various things’ during their hours-long sit-down, originally only scheduled for 30 minutes. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov also attended the meeting along with two translators…. Tillerson said the two discussed Russian interference in the U.S. election, and that Putin denied any involvement while asking the U.S. for evidence that hacking had taken place.
