THE COMMENTS FROM PUTIN AND TRMP COMBINED WERE TWELVE MINUTES LONG.

Including the RUSSIAN, RUSSIAN, RUSSIAN HOAX

Alaska is just as much Russian as American, and Trump's trying to call the Russian COLLUSION a 'hoax' for the billionth time, not much of squat happened.

And what's with this 'Ukraine situation' Valddie refers to?

The 'SITUATION,' assclown, is YOU INVADED A SOVEREIGN NATION.

Enormous waste of time and millions of dollars and rubles to accomplish nothing. Did Pooty agree to do this simply to help his puppy get out of the Epstein trouble?

His getting nothing is darned near a win for our country. Usually he has a loss.

Just a reminder: the last time an American president met with Putin, it was night and day. No ass-kissing, no groveling—Biden stood tall, faced the press, and answered every damn question.

Trump? He tucked tail and ran. Was he too tired? Too embarrassed after sucking up to Putin on the world stage? The press needs to stop being cowards and demand answers.

He promised them a demand for an immediate ceasefire. He even threatened Putin with consequences before the meeting. After the meeting? He dropped that demand in favour of a "Peace Deal". He later posted that "all agreed". By "all" he means only him and Putin.

A Peace Deal could take months. In the meantime the killing continues. Arms manufacturers and the oligarchs - and Putin - are happy though.

They allow this to happen and some of those folks are in on the Red-Education of 20K kidnapped Ukrainian children.

They've done this before. They got away with the Holodor . We can expect nothing less from them.
