Trump saves Putin from international isolation with embarrassing meet-up - The Briefing w/Jen Psaki - MSNBC



Despite efforts to lower expectations for his big meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump still managed to underperform with nothing to show for the meeting, which was followed by a "press conference" with no details and no questions taken. Jen Psaki is joined by her MSNBC colleague Nicolle Wallace, former U.S. ambassador to Russia, Michael McFaul, and former deputy national security advisor, Ben Rhodes, to discuss what happened and what it all means. - Aired on 08/15/2025.

American who loves his country, hanging my head in shame that a war criminal on par with Hitler or Stalin, an avowed hater of all the values that are American (and Ukrainian for that matter) was allowed to step onto our countries' soil. Need I even mention meeting with our President? What do we stand for anymore as a country and a people? Have we truly lost our hearts and souls?
