(Axios) Putin proposed summit with Trump: White House
--
Trump told European leaders after the call that he plans to meet Putin next week, and he hopes to hold a trilateral summit with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky soon afterward

A White House official said a meeting between Trump and Putin could take place as soon as next week, but that no location has been set.

The Breaking News sub-forum requires adding "original thought" to OP entries, and with this news I absolutely need no prompting!

I believe Putin is playing Trump like a violin! After wasted days as usual, Putin once again sent Steven Witkoff packing - emptyhanded.

Putin wants Ukraine, will continue to take Ukraine, and has only one goal in relationship to the United States - "Delay, delay, delay!".

And to that effect, Putin is pulling Trump in one-on-one, to isolate NATO & the EU (where the real lifting will need to be done in terms of negotiations).

And it looks like Trump is falling for it - hook, line, and sinker. We are watching the Kim nuclear talks all over again, heading to the same result. Trump was out-of-his-league then (as exhibited by the results). And he is even way more out-of-his-league, here.

I was going to advocate stocking-up on ketchup, but there's no hurry. If Trump even gets a one-on-one-meeting with Putin, he will return with a wide smile like after his hours' long phone calls with Putin, thinking he accomplished something, not even realizing how used he was - until it dawns on him (maybe) some time later!

We'll see if I'm right.
 

, dang quite an imagination. You should work in Vegas and run a betting line on it. Our President talking to two warring nations is a good thing, no matter how you spin it according to your ideology. If it were Biden or Harris going, oh hell, you would be nominating them for the Nobel Peace Prize, lol.
 

Yeah, we'll see but what did you expect Trump to say to the media? That he's not open to a meeting with Putin?
 
A summit now would be great.

Media to Trump: why haven't you released the Epstein files?
Media to Putin: how much information do you have on the relationship between Epstein and Trump?

Putin would bend Trump over a **** him with no lube.
 

Will you have any objection if Trump again decides to have a meeting with Putin and bans anyone from being in the room?
Do you agree that it would look extremely suspicious?
 
It's clear that they want Putin to do this. Stiff Trump on a meeting.

That's some heavy TDS.

Bringing them "if's" from the imagination and predicting the future......it's a wild, wild world, lol.

Lol, hypotheticals and strawmen. Nobody argued that Trump would bans everyone from the meeting.

When he starts making sense maybe liberals might have something nice to say about him but until then no, they won't.

I think they're past medication, intervention, or psychological help.

So you can't conceive of why liberals don't like Trump?
The constantly changing tarrifs and threats against allies maybe?

Erm, everything.
There is simply no reason why a meeting of leaders shouldn't have people from the US government involved to take notes that will then be made public.

None at all, he's a public servant and the public have a right to know what goes on in such meetings whoever is President.

To explain insanity, one should be insane themself, wouldn't they? IDK, they have PTED (Post Traumatic Embitterment Disorder).
 
Oh you think you know everything that goes on when two world leaders meet? Admit it, if it was anyone other than Trump you wouldnt give a shit

Oh, so the whole world who hates Trump has a mental disorder?
It couldn't possibly be that Trump is a shit president and human being?

Nope, everyone who doesn't like him has a mental illness.
Yep, that sounds perfectly reasonable.

I do know meetings are supposed to be recorded so that the contents can be overseen by senators or whoever and scrutinised even if the public don't get told everything.

This is basic civics and has been forever. If you honestly can't see a problem with a President having secret meetings with other world leaders then I'm not sure how to proceed as it's such a basic standard.

And MAGA are super excited over this.
Their idol meeting his idol.
 

With all respect, I very much I see Putin playing Trump, isolating NATO & the EU.

This is exactly what we saw with Kim, when Trump was going & forth to the PRNK, gushing over Kim's letters.

So I'm not pulling this stuff off the top-of-my-head. Trump has a track-record in this.
