Trump, Fiorina blur lines on how they met Putin
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Republican front-runner Donald Trump claimed during Tuesday's GOP debate that he met Vladimir Putin during a taping of "60 Minutes," and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina claimed she also met the Russian president, but "not in a green room for a show."
However, Trump didn't actually meet Putin during the taping of a recent "60 Minutes" interview, and despite her claim Tuesday night, Fiorina appears to have met the Russian President in a "green room-type setting."
Trump's claim that he had met Putin during a "60 Minutes" interview came Tuesday evening as he assured the Fox Business moderators that he is best suited to handle the Russian president because he has a personal relationship with him.
