He won't. I just heard another classic Trump sound bite. Where he stated that his NATO meeting was a problem and his UK meeting was a problem but his meeting with Putin is going to be the easiest. Who would have thought?

He isn't even bothering to hide his allegiance. This must be Putin's greatest coup. Despite all of the intelligence operations he must of run while a high ranking KGB operative. I doubt anything would have topped installing a Russian stooge as POTUS.

All Trump has to do though. Is demand Russia pull it's troops out of Ukraine and stop supporting the separatists there, demand that Russia extradite the GRU operatives and Russian servicemen responsible for shooting down Malaysian Airlines flight 17 so they can be put on trial for war crimes, demand Russia stops interfering with NATO operations in Syria.

And demand the extradition of the 12 GRU operatives as well as the previously indicted internet research agency employees so they can be tried for meddling in the recent US presidential election. Of course that's going to be hard when he is down on his knees with a mouthful of Russian cock.
 
While trump is at it. He might as well tell Putin to the get the fuck out of South Ossetia and extradite the Russian agents responsible for the nerve gas and polonium attacks. On former Russian intelligence officers living in the UK. While threatening to rain fire and fury down on Putin. If he doesn't do what he is told because trump is the most fearsome US president ever.

EVER! Also he is not a Russian stooge and he is about to prove it.
 
Just a wild ass guess on my part, but I'm wondering if it needs to be considered whether or not Putin strongly urged Trump to enter the Presidential race in the first place, pledging to bless Trump with the full weight of the Russian gov't and the covert financing Trump needed to compete.

That aside, it looks to me like the main reason Trump is having a face to face with Putin is primarily for secretly coordinating their efforts to keep Trump in office, of which at this time includes keeping the Repub legislators in office so as to have them acquiesce to Trump's (Putin's) demands like they've been doing since Trump took office.

Everything else that gets let out by Trump or timely leaked for maximum effect will be chewy red meat for his base because that's all he cares about.
 
Do you ever wonder how the world got to a point where a man who once wrestled vince mcmahon on live TV. Who is all ego, thin skin, small hands, bluster and bullshit. Got himself elected as POTUS? There was the Russian interference but you really have to give the Trump campaign credit for realising.

That by appealing to white hate, evangelical christians and middle class whites who feel like they are being victimised. They could get an inept buffoon who once commissioned a 10,000$ portrait of himself. Using money from the Trump foundation which he then hung on the wall of a bar at one of his golf clubs, elected.

It just defies belief. It's like a circus sideshow that just goes on and on. No matter how many lies trump tells. His support base is completely loyal to him....because liberals, muslims, mexicans blah blah blah. Russians are OK though and do you know why? Because Trump says so. That means it requires no further analysis.

You forgot about his agent that nobody has met and sounds remarkably similar to Trump and the fake time magazine man of the year covers hanging in his clubs

He's like Napoleon but with smaller hands.

On another note I was watching a documentary on netflix and one episode was about how white supremacists and Islamic extremists are radicalised online. There was one guy who was a hardcore white supremacist until one day he realised how wrong he was. He left the "movement" and started up a foundation to help others get out of hate groups. One of the stories was that of a 17 year old girl. Who was radicalised by a white supremacist via the internet.

She posted some particularly vile and racist youtube videos and her parents called in the aforementioned dude and a couple of weeks after he talked to her. She took the videos down and posted one saying how wrong she was and that she had been conned. Which she had been. It must be such a massive shift in thinking to go from being a radicalised neo-nazi or islamist to actively fighting against the extremism you so fervently believed in.

It was really interesting.

I just think people are desperate. Desperate for someone to save them. Why is this alarming? Doesn't history keep repeating itself over, over and over again. Remember Hitler? I'm not saying Trump is Adolf, but there are some similarities. The people who voted for Hitler did so out of desperation. He spoke to them Met them at their level. Pretended to understand their pain. The same is true for Trump

Anyway, this Russian thing is a disgrace. Reagan must be rolling around in his grave. Along with McCarthy
 
Of the poll choices I went with 2 and 4, but I suggest a fifth.

Trump meets with Putin and complains about this "fake news", Putin assures him it's false, Trump believe him and promises to get to the bottom of it. When he leaves, Trump will not remember anything correctly and will say random shit unrelated to reality.
 
The real answer is that we will be told lies, and never know what was truly said as there are no witnesses to the meeting.

They could well likely be planning the next stages of the interference for the midterms. To save his own ass, Trump has to throw everything at holding Congress.

trump will lie about what was said and Russia will then tell the truth about what was said, just like the infamous WH meeting where trump gave up top secret Intel.

What a twisted world reality has become.

You do realize odds are in favor of Trump giving away more top secret intel like he did before.

I thought he stopped reading/listening to that noise anyway. I guess the spooks could have fed stuff to Hannity in hopes that some would reach Trump.
