So as you can see Trump claimed to be "very honored" to meet with the man who interfered in our presidential election, and may have just hacked into our nuclear power stations.
Essentially showing himself to be Putin's bitch right off the bat.
As for what they discussed about any hacking, the two sides have very different accounts.
Courtesy of Business Insider:
US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Friday that President Donald Trump "pressed" Russian President Vladimir Putin on findings that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election, during what Tillerson described as a "very robust and lengthy exchange on the subject."
Tillerson said Russian meddling was discussed right at the onset of the pair's first bilateral meeting, at the G-20 summit in Hamburg, Germany.
Russia's account of the discussions on the topic was quite different.
According to Russia's Interfax news agency, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Trump acknowledged that an anti-Russian campaign in the US was "looking odd" and that he accepted Putin's past statements denying Russia had any involvement in the 2016 election. A White House official pushed back, telling NBC News that Lavrov's characterization was "not accurate.
Sort of hard to determine the truth when dealing with two habitual liars, but I have the feeling that Russia is actually providing the more accurate information in this case.
For his part Tillerson also had his description of the meeting.
Of course before the meeting, instead of preparing, Trump made time to attack the media and oddly enough John Podesta.
By the way Podesta was not in charge of the DNC and had NOTHING to do with their server.
Podesta did respond to this after learning about during a drive with his wife.

And if it is true that Trump proposed working WITH the Russians on cyber security that is like asking the mice to help you guard the cheese.Lavrov: Trump said he heard Putin's statements that Russia didn't hack election and accepts them.— Lucian Kim (@Lucian_Kim) July 7, 2017

"Not a lot of re-litigating the past," and "There was very clear, positive chemistry between the two" are not phrases that give me any confidence that Trump stood up to Putin in any way.Tillerson: 'The two leaders, I would say, connected very quickly. There was a very clear, positive chemistry between the two." (via @MSNBC) http://pic.twitter.com/U5otmORBj0— Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) July 7, 2017

I will represent our country well and fight for its interests! Fake News Media will never cover me accurately but who cares! We will #MAGA!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 7, 2017
I doubt that "everyone here" even knows who the the hell John Podesta is, though of course Putin might since he hacked his email account.Everyone here is talking about why John Podesta refused to give the DNC server to the FBI and the CIA. Disgraceful!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 7, 2017

So to be clear it appears that Trump did NOTHING to seriously confront Putin for attacking our democracy, yet had plenty of time to attack a man who was one of the victims of that attack.3/ Get a grip man, the Russians committed a crime when they stole my emails to help get you elected President.— John Podesta (@johnpodesta) July 7, 2017
