U.S. officials sent in the first lady to end the scheduled 30-minute meeting when it had run for more than an hour. Melania was unsuccessful, and the meeting ended up running for 2 hours and 16 minutes.

I know most guys have experienced this scenario.....

You're at some social event and your companion give you the sign it's time to go.  You politely wrap things up and go on your way.  Sometime later, you subtly indicate your desire to go.  She loudly and awkwardly says, 'What?  What is it?' as everyone stares at you. 

Sounds like he got 2 points for a reversal.

Putin says Trump believed his denial that Russia meddled in election

 By Alicia Cohn  - 07/08/17 11:01 AM EDT  

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday said he assured President Trump that Russia did not interfere in the U.S. election, and that he thinks the president believed his denial.

Putin was the first leader to provide detailed comments about the meeting, which took place on Friday. It was the first face-to-face meeting between the two since Trump took office, and lasted nearly two hours longer than planned.

Trump should speak for himself on whether he believes Russia interfered, Putin said according to the Associated Press.

Prior to his meeting with Putin, Trump said Russia could have interfered in the 2016 election but "nobody really knows for sure."

Trump has yet to speak about the meeting with Putin aside from calling it “tremendous” in a brief aside earlier in the day. He is not holding a press conference in Germany, in a break with tradition.

If the Russians "interfered" with the election, it was by getting at the emails transmitted between Demorats, and from what's been published so far, it appears a child could have hacked his way in.  The Republicans were tight with their computer security, Dems were not and the Dems are blaming that on the Reps.  Meanwhile, the very biased press continues to play that up as a way to chip away at Republicans.

This will not keep playing for them.

Obviously someone needs a quick lesson on being couth.         A little respect for the POTUS and FLOTUS at this juncture is deserved.

Thank you for this post @libertybele ...you've made the point in a much nicer way than I would have.

Is that supposed to be a joke?  He's in a triple header battle with JFK and LBJ for second most crass individual to occupy the Oval Office in the modern era.  Clinton is clearly in first.

Definitely not a joke at all.  Take a close look at his demeanor among dignitaries and statehoods; he handles himself much differently and takes things much more seriously than when he wards off the ugliness from the MSM and the false accusations from the left. Yes there are times when he acts like a 5th grade bully, but he deserves credit where credit is due and I still am extremely grateful that we don't have the pantsuit lady as our leader. 

Comparing him to LBJ is an absolute utter disgrace.  I don't see this President deliberately trying to keep people downtrodden in order to get their vote; quite the opposite.

The sexist remark about our FLOTUS quite frankly, I found offensive and uncalled for.

Couth?  That just the ways guys talk.  Nothing burger.

Really? One thing you did get right is labeling the sexist comments in here as coming from 'boys'.

Personal behavior and political maneuvers aren't the same thing.  Both men are legendary in the former and not in a positive way.

Remember that when someone talks that way about your wife or daughter.  Nothing burger.
