Trump and Putin

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Trump is the great negotiator.  He knows how to handle different people, and his handling of Putin at their time together in Helsinki was carefully orchestrated. Don't give too much.  Don't take too much.

The media had other thoughts about it.

They felt that Putin, the Russian President who they are convinced Trump is in cahoots with, dominated the Helsinki press conference.  Funny how they were not so concerned when Obama was rubbing noses with Putin, and telling Medvedev that he would be more flexible for the Russians after he got reelected.



When asked about his spying on Trump, Putin denied having any dirt on Trump.  It was the American media asking about the dirt on Trump and either way they get what they want.  If Putin had said "yes," it would have been an "aha!!!" moment.  By him saying no, "well, he's a Russian leader, of course he's lying."

Personally, I've always thought the election meddling charge coupled with collusion with the Trump campaign was ridiculous, because if anyone has always tried to work to be the buddies of communists, it has been the Democrats.  Putin agrees that the Democrats claiming that there was election meddling is 'utterly ridiculous'.  That said, I don't believe the meddling is ridiculous because Putin said so, for we know he is not necessarily one to be trusted, but because the lack of evidence regarding collusion between the Russians and the Trump campaign, and the evidence showing that if anyone was meddling, it was the Democrats and the Clinton Crime Family meddling among each other to try and undermine the election of 2016.


Acting like a puppet?  Really?

Wow, they see what they want to see.

I am not saying that the Russians did not try to manipulate our election.  The Russians have been meddling in our elections for over a hundred years.  I am saying that the very idea that they wanted Trump over Hillary Clinton, and colluded with Trump to get the billionaire into office, is ridiculous on its face.  Funny thing is, the Democrats, behind Barack Obama, didn't have a problem with the progressive left trying to meddle in Israel's election, hoping to dislodge Benjamin Netanyahu.

As far as the leftists are concerned, since Trump is President of the United States, we must be on the edge of a dystopian apocalypse ... all because they aren't getting their way, and all because their march towards communism in America was stopped with a stick in their spokes by a non-politician who sees through their game, and has promised to dismantle their deep state machine.

The Epoch Times headline says it all.  Obama and Clinton, Not Trump, Sold Out to Putin.
