Wasn't she wise, though? And so gracious when reminded of it.

All this lovey dovey business, Putin's fantastic offer of mutual interrogations, then meeting in secret because of being so close, and ganging up on this country-- it's collusion, right? Yes it sure is.

But...they're not economically anxious. The correspondence of income to voting pattern made that clear. They're terribly anxious about "whiteness" disappearing.

Hated is terrible, and anger is cruel, but no one survives ridicule: as Mark Twain proved. I think the president was Grant, and Twain's speech made him ridiculous.

I don't think Putin is sleepy at all.

Yup. In Helsinki Trump seemed to be suffering from the Stockholm syndrome.

You're right. I also have no desire to be fair to him. All those Iraqi war dead and all...

True. Plus, they're both big, fat sleepy liars.

I wish our president's suit didn't look like a re-purposed tent:

'Oh, one more thing, Donald, you will be allowing my "staff" access to all of Washington buildings before my arrival, without escorts, for "security sweep." Da?'

Oh sweet Jesus we do NOT need this whole circus getting all Sharpton'd up from this end. Please let's all ignore him and maybe make this man shut up. He's the Left's equivalent of Trump as far as jackass attention-mongering.

No. I don;t think they had talks like normal heads of state. The point is that it does not matter what they talked about at all. Putin can make up any old shit he wants to and say Donnie gave him a serious verbal agreement about it and Trump will not contradict it.

He can come out and say Trump told him Russia was going to be admitted to NATO and be allowed to be the new leader of it and Trump wouldn't utter a peep about it.

You think they actually had talks, like normal heads of state? Without anyone else in the room? Please. They spent the whole 90 minutes plotting ways to get Browder and McFaul, solidifying plans to steal the midterms (because there is no waaaay Putin will let those losers in the GOP lose the House) and exchanging tips on how to be an autocrat.
