A meeting between Trump and Putin is imminent, according to a White House official and the Kremlin. But how optimistic should we be about a possible thaw in negotiations over the war in Ukraine? On #playbookpod, @meganmesserly.bsky.social and @adamwren.bsky.social dig deeper: ow.ly/WLIq50WBc2f
Agent Krasnov has to play his part on the stage.
This is bad, Putin will remind tRump that Russia, bailed out trump numerous times, and if Donnie crosses him, he can eliminate him very easily? Putin’s DJT MICE files are Biggly? Lol Although Putin should be careful about scaring Don Jon, he’s so old he might just die on the spot?
‼️☹️ We can only be pessimistic about the outcome of this meeting. ☝️🫥 Trump has no intention of helping Ukraine. ☝️🫥 Trump wants to cooperate with Russia at all costs. ‼️😡 What's worse, Trump wants to be like Russia and China. 💰👎 This is the collapse of democracy.
@politico.com Any ‘negotiation’ involving Trump and Putin is just a PR stunt. Ukraine’s fate shouldn’t be a bargaining chip between two men who admire strongmen more than human rights
Seriously? How many times does the media need to get played before they figure this out? I'm not a politician, media person, or master negotiator and I bet that TACOs will be the main course on this menu.
TACO will cave because in spite of 🍊🤡💩's boasting, Putin has twice the intelligence and knows exactly how to "play" him.
Perhaps we should review... --Russiagate (NYT Magazine 11/2/22) --Israel's connection to Gazprom (Haaretz 2017) --Kushner's ties w/Beny Steinmetz --Hermitage Capitol's ties to Russia, Beny Steinmetz, Kushner, Lorber, Safra, , Browder (Magnitsky Affair) Now see what happens. You know what to do.
Putin is playing his games with him.
It would only be a delaying tactic and photo op. Both psychopaths want what the want. Trump is the weakest link
well .. we all know how it ended 1999 for serbia .. that's the NATO way of doing it I guess.
Putin will show Donald some saucy videos in his possession from Don's previous visits to Russia. That will take his mind off the Epstein files and Ukraine rights.
If you are even 1% optimistic then you’ll believe that monkeys fly out of my ass.
All Smoke & Mirrors... Krasnov will never disobey his Papa that feeds his Evil Lifestyle. If something does "Seem" to go against Putin, something will go absolutely in his Favor. All Slight of the Hand in Play.
Now we will find out just how good a deal-maker Trump is. How can he get a deal that Putin will accept and that doesn't look to everyone except his MAGA base in the US that Putin hasn't got him tucked neatly in his breast pocket. It could alienate the US allies in NATO even further.
"Now we will find out...". Where have "we" been the last 50 years of Trump's failed deals?
Not being an American, I have to admit that I am rather bewildered by how you choose your elected representatives. I grew up with the USA lecturing the world on how sacred and precious democracy was and now I watch from afar as you slowly dismantle yours.
Not American either; I am a neighbour.
A good neighbour or do you keep throwing Fentanyl over the fence?
The Fentanyl myth?
Are you suggesting the articulate Mr. Trump may be guilty of a Terminological inexactitude when trying to annex the 51st state? (Although as I am on holiday in Canada I September, maybe I should cease my teasing I case they refuse to serve me poutine)
Putin will praise him and Trump will fall for it again
Whitkoff also had a private meeting with the head of the Russian Sovereign Wealth fund, and this is the story you are ignoring/failing to report on.
Trump meeting Putin is like two mob bosses meeting to divide up Chicago. Nothing is permanent and everything is self-serving.
Where have I heard this before...... Hm....
