Ahead of summit, Trump blames US -- not Putin -- for sour relationship

Source: CNN

Helsinki, Finland (CNN)Four hours before his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, US President Donald Trump blamed the United States and the special counsel's investigation stemming from Russian 2016 election interference for the dismal state of relations between the two countries.
Trump is set to sit down Monday with Putin, hoping once again that his personal touch can reverse the steep decline in US-Russia relations in recent years.
But while US officials have stressed the path to improving US-Russia ties runs through a clear-eyed understanding of Russian aggression and the root causes of discord in the relationship, Trump has signaled in the lead-up to the summit he finds previous US administrations and law enforcement -- not Putin -- accountable for the breakdown.

We don't need your traitorous kind around here spewing lies at the rate of six a day.

republicans are a total disgrace, pissing on America in front of the world, then falling to their scabby knees before the freaking Evil Empire* of russia.

From a russia asset for putin , and he's destroying Democracy while saying he's making America great again too. All the opposite of the truth. That's one of trumps tell , and repeating his lies 2-5 times , and exaggerating the lies. All tells of trump. After their meeting he'll promote more propaganda calling his meeting the greatest success ever known to mankind, all because of him, lol. We'll find out soon all the things he again gave away to another corrupt and criminal dictator probably to get development deals from it for himself. It makes me wonder , how much is he selling us out for?
