Has Putin sped up the timetable ? Rachel asks an excellent question

[OnDoutside]

Has Putin decided that Trump will be out on his ear soon, so he needs to get his wins now ?

Forces Ukraine to accept Elections in the Russian occupied eastern province

Trump capitulates in Syria, handing control to Russia

Russia and the US to do Cyber Operations together

Talking about inviting Putin to the G7 at the Doral

[Mike Nelson]

1. I have also...

... thought this might be the case. He needs to make his moves. It will be interesting to see what else is in store... we should be watching for more moves from Russia, North Korea, etc... NK is off the radar, but I understand they have greater tech, now.

2. Putin is gonna milk this for all it's worth....

He is seeing the writing on the wall and the demise of his asset in the Whitehouse.
G7 admission? Putins real goal is to have ALL the sanctions lifted. That has been his game plan all along. My money is on donny trantrum pushing REAL hard to get sanctions lifted before he exits in shame...YMMV

3. Putin would also know what bombshells we will come to light in the next

Days/weeks and knows Trump will be gone soon. Time for Putin to get everything he can out of the Trump admin.

4. The other 6 Gs should not show up. Let it be Rump and Putin meeting alone.

[Ilsa]

8. That was my thought as well.

Show trump that he's become a nobody, a pariah amongst world leaders.

[Mc Mike]

9. I remember when that happened to li'l bush. Saw the footage on Colbert, Stewart, or the like.

There was a line of foreign leaders greeting other leaders who were filing into the room, and every leader shook the hand of the leader in front of li'l bush and the one behind li'l bush, and none of them would shake his hand. They were all so busy greeting the guy in front of him or not seeing him because they were so excited to see the guy behind him.

It was a thing of beauty.

5. The Occupant is Putin's Santa Claus.

And Christmas will come early for Putin before the Occupant leaves.

[True Dough]

6. I sure as hell hope

Trump is impeached before we get to that G7 meeting.

[Kurt V.]

7. most likely. russia has the largest natural gas reserves in the world. Nearly all of

putins moves revolve around that. Syria and Ukraine are strategic for distribution.

[OnDoutside]

10. And he must know that the Democrats will hit back hard when they back in, so Putin

doesn't have much time left, especially if Trump gets an early boot out of office.

The glaring thing IF this is true, is where is Trump getting these instructions from ?

[Kurt V.]

11. from mobsters like shokin probably

[GoCubsGo]

12. It sure does seem that way.

Got to get as much as he can, before his asset is removed from office. Which he will be.

[triron]

13. Putin is in a hurry. What incentives is he offering Trump? You got to know he is.

[WyattKansas]

14. Cyber Operations together???

We are so screwed for years if tRUMP allows the Russians access to anything cyber related.

I'm sure Jared and Donnie Jr. have already been telling tRUMP that routing our cyber operations through Russia gives us a lot of bots to do even more damage.

[triron]

15. We are already screwed.

16. *** YES !!! *** Trump is done, Moscow Mitch will make sure it happens Pence is just as control-able
