WASHINGTON (AP) — The Hall of Mirrors where Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin shared a palatial lunch in Finland seemed to have a reality-bending effect long after their summit ended.

On Tuesday, Trump abruptly flipped on whether he believed Russia interfered in the e******n, saying he meant to suggest he does believe Moscow meddled despite having expressed the contrary view a day earlier. And Trump repeated a "because of me" boast from last week's NATO summit, tweeting that he alone is responsible for an increase in military spending, which is not true.

For his part, Putin made the erroneous assertion in the news conference closing their summit that a clique of U.S. business associates steered $400 million to Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign.
