Once again, Trump goes into a room with Putin, and only Russian media is allowed in.

You saw the giggly "Please don't interfere with our election" clip.

After that, they shuffled off to a room where US media was not allowed.

Trump giggles about "fake news" being a problem for him.

Putin giggled and said it was a problem for him as well.

Both clips are being shown on MSNBC.

A party that condones and supports the president's traitorous actions is traitorous itself.

when a liberal discusson board finds it just hunky-dory to use being gay as an insult.

There are plenty of ways to criticize Trump's worship of dictators without implying he is gay.

"pushback" should be from us. We are being laughed at isn't that enough, children's prisons isn't that enough, now he wants to say hi to Kim isn't that enough????? Him and Putin giggling at us isn't that enough???

This is not normal.

#Russia's state TV revels in the idea that
Trump arrived early & had to stand around
waiting for Putin, along with Ivanka, Kushner,
Bolton and Pompeo. To make fun of Trump,
they show an Internet meme that depicts
Trump welcoming Putin with Russian karavai
on an embroidered towel.






According to other tweets, the karavai has the same inference as
a wedding cake

As much as people complained the last time, you would think he would be careful not to do it again. He just doesn't care. He is rubbing all of America's nose in it, especially the House and Senate.

Unbelievable!

Once again, if anybody missed it earlier:

It's the Grand Bargain as he describes it in his book, and the short version is on this rolled out thread:
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1143634085677600769.html

I'm wondering why Putin's name isn't on this list, but several other Russian oligarchs are listed.

They laugh about it because they're proud of the fact that they are getting away with it. Their egos demand they we know.

Doesn't he realize that the Russians can claim ANYTHING about this meeting, because no one can tell the world what really happened there.
