WASHINGTON If President Donald Trump wants to make a good first impression with Russian leader Vladimir Putin when they meet Friday, two words he might consider starting with are thank and you.
Without Putins decision to interfere in last years presidential campaign on Trumps behalf, theres a good possibility he would not have won, given how few votes swung the outcome in the three critical Rust Belt states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.
Rick Wilson, a Republican political consultant and frequent Trump critic, said the Russian assistance likely swayed 2-to-3 percentage points in those states that proved crucial to the elections outcome.
It certainly kept the national Republican base in Trumps camp, Wilson said. Yeah, he should say thank you to Putin. I think this is Donald Trump going to the home office for his quarterly review.
