President Donald Trump went after demoted FBI agent Peter Strzok during his press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, when the Russian leader was asked if he had any dirt on POTUS on Monday morning.

A reporter asked if “the Russian government have any compromising material on President Trump or his family?”
“Yeah, I did hear those rumors that we allegedly collected compromising material on Mr. Trump when he was visiting Moscow,” Putin responded to the reporter. “Let me tell you this, when President Trump visit Moscow back then, I didn’t even know that he was in Moscow.”
After Putin’s comments, Trump jumped in.
“And I say if they had it, it would have been out long ago,” Trump said. “And if anybody watched Peter Strzok testify over the last couple of days, and I was in Brussels watching it, it was a disgrace to the FBI. It was a disgrace to our country. And you would say that was a total witch hunt.”
“Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you,” the president said concluding the press conference.
Putin also denied any Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. (RELATED: Putin Calls Collusion ‘Utter Nonsense’ – Asks Reporter To Name A Single Fact To Prove It)
Strzok testified in front of the House Judicial Committee last week for 10 hours. He was asked about the uncovered text messages between him and his lover and colleague, Lisa Page. Strzok was also asked about his biases and how it effected his work, although he denied any compromised work.
