Repeatedly this week, Trump has suggested he never really trusted Putin.

“He’s fooled a lot of people,” Trump said Monday at the White House, adding: “He fooled Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden. He didn’t fool me.”

The president echoed the point in a new interview with the BBC. Asked whether he trusted Putin, he reportedly paused for a bit.

“I trust almost nobody, to be honest with you,” he eventually responded.
