Trump-Putin Alaska Summit

"Fabulously Good Friend" ??

Pres. Trump has a mass-murdering monster as a "Fabulously Good Friend" ??

A bit excessive, isn't it?

[LMAO]

Trump is obsessed with the Nobel peace prize, and he’s willing to do anything, sell out anybody to get it

Not sure about good friends, but I believe that there's mutual respect.
Excerpt:
A hidden video making the rounds online is sending shockwaves through the political world — and giving Americans a glimpse of what real diplomacy looks like.

The clip shows President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin speaking off-camera, relaxed and smiling like old friends. Instead of the tense, scripted interactions the media loves to obsess over, this private moment captures something very different: two world leaders who actually get along.





They are much more naturally friends than Putin and Xi.  This fact is better for the world in the long run.

Swalwell: Trump Is a ‘Kremlin Kiss Ass’ — Acts Like a ‘Russian Asset’

I voted for Trump three times and I utterly loathe Eric Swallowell.

And he's right about Trump. 

[Right_in_Virginia]

My stomach turns every time you open your pie hole Mr. Blumenthal!

Ditto!

[Right_in_Virginia]

If anybody has any doubt  if Donald Trump is submissive to Vladimir Putin, well that Alaskan summit proved that he is

Nonsense.

Ronald Reagan would be rolling in his grave. Look how Trump was towards Vladimir Putin versus Zelensky earlier this year

It's more likely Reagan's dancing in his grave.   

[LMAO]

Nonsense.

It's more likely Reagan's dancing in his grave.

You’re a MAGA  extremist. You’re naturally going to see things differently than the rest of humanity and the world. Your orange colored glasses keeps you blind.

Putin gives Trump validation. Something that Trump craves. Putin knows this. That’s why Trump is his bitch. Trump would never talk to Putin the way that he talked to Zelinski

And you’re probably not aware of this because you didn’t see on so called “Truth Social” or tweets from Johnny MAGA,but Russian forces were continuing to attack Ukraine, while this summit was happening. It might help you to get out of your information silo from time to time.


And you probably weren’t even born during the Reagan presidency, but Reagan took a very hard stand against the Russians.

[Canuck Conservative]

NO.

Ronald Reagan was smart. He could have seen that Putin was the one desperate for a meeting, and he would have loaded up the pre-conditions (starting with a real ceasefire) and come to a solid agreement well before he ever shook the hand of any murderous Rooskie ... the meeting would only be to sign the agreed-upon Peace Treaty.

But then, RR fully understood how devious the Russians really are, and he didn't have a giant ego that needed a Nobel Prize.

[Right_in_Virginia]

It's stunning to witness:  Without knowing the terms of the peace the President will propose, his carrots and sticks for both Putin and Zelensky, and the trajectory for the Trump worldview, the battalion of usual Clancy cling-ons condemn him vividly and frequently. It's a wonder we've lived through their time at the helm.

YOU are eaten up with TDS!

[Cyber Liberty]

I have no idea what Trump and Putin discussed yesterday, nobody else does either, but there are plenty of posts on the subject.  And they all perfectly fit the preconceived notions.  I am just going to wait and see what happens.

Carry on....

[LMAO]

YOU are eaten up with TDS!

You hopping up and down and screaming TDS at me is like water off a duck’s back. If that was Joe Biden yesterday you would be agreeing with me so pipe down.

What I said was true and you’re just upset. That was embarrassing what happened yesterday. Watching a US president submit to a ruthless dictator was weakness.  Zelinsky gets yelled at and Putin gets the red carpet from this president

Screaming TDS doesn’t erase the facts. Sorry.

[LMAO]

NO.

Ronald Reagan also consistently called the Soviet Union/Russia, the evil empire.

Catch up.  The President's past the ceasefire stage and will be discussing a peace treaty with Zelensky on Monday. 

Trump wasn't there to negotiate a peace treaty, which he, himself, said can't be done without Zelensky.

Trump went to determine if peace is possible --- and since only the US has the military and economic power to squeeze peace out of Putin --- he went to assess what he's going to have to do to make it happen.

Now Trump must bring the EU and Ukraine onboard -- using monosyllabic words to explain his plan.

Hopefully, this is the last ounce of energy we waste on Europeans.

I doubt that.

[Canuck Conservative]

Correction, Pres. Trump didn't even make it to the ceasefire stage.

My point was, RR knew meeting with the US President is a huge PR deal, and wouldn't have agreed to it without major concessions from Russia first.

The "Great Negotiator" gave it away for free.

And, he's still agreeing to postpose the secondary sanctions, as long as Russia keeps talking ... exactly what Russia wants!

Trump: Putin ready to sign non-aggression deal, wants Ukraine's Donbas in return

https://global.espreso.tv/world-about-ukraine-trump-putin-ready-to-sign-non-aggression-deal-wants-donbas-in-return?amp

During a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy following the Alaska summit with Putin, U.S. President Donald Trump said that the Russian leader insists on gaining control over the entire Donbas region

Bloomberg reported the information.

According to sources, during the phone call, Trump noted that the final decision on the territories should be made by Kyiv, but Putin’s position remains unchanged. Russia wants full control over Donetsk and Luhansk regions, even though its forces have currently captured only part of these areas.

If Kyiv agrees, Moscow is ready to drop claims to the parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions still under Ukrainian control, effectively freezing the frontline there.

President Zelenskyy has repeatedly rejected any possibility of ceding territory.

Additionally, sources said that in talks with European leaders, Trump expressed willingness to support security guarantees for Ukraine, provided they do not involve NATO. The president suggested that Putin would agree to this.

Trump claims Putin open to new written agreement

Moreover, as Trump emphasized in talks with European leaders after the Alaska summit, the Russian leader is reportedly even willing to provide a written guarantee of no further armed aggression against Ukraine or any EU country, if he is given full control over the territories of Ukraine’s Donetsk and Luhansk regions, including areas currently under Ukrainian control.

This information was reported on the evening of August 16 by New York Times correspondent Steven Erlanger in Berlin.

“In return, Mr. Putin offered a cease-fire in the rest of Ukraine at current battle lines and a written promise not to attack Ukraine or any European country again, the senior officials said,” the NYT article states.

In response, European leaders reportedly reminded Trump that Putin “has broken similar promises before.”

EXCERPT

If true, what a TERRIBLE deal!  Trump apparently hasn't read his own book.

You were probably not even born during the Reagan era so you’re probably unaware that he called Russia the evil empire

I was not only around during his presidency but he was my first president I got to vote for and it’s painfully obvious you are ignorant when it comes to that era.

But be willing to learn from those of us who were around during that era. It’s your refusal to go outside your information bubble is why you get schooled by me and others when it comes to this subject and others

[Timber Rattler]

So says the pro-terrorist antisemite who understands nothing about Reagan and didn't even bother to learn about what happened in Reykjavík, how Reagan told Gorbachev NO!, and walked away from a bad deal.

I'll bet anyone on the forum $5. that Zelensky will wear a suit and tie this Monday at the White House.

The issue isn’t about to what degree, if any,  the US should be involved with Ukraine/Russian conflict. That issue has already been debated here since it started.

It’s about an American president showing a submissive attitude towards an adversary and a brutal dictator who invaded a sovereign nation

Weakness on the international stage along with a weakening economy. This won’t end well.

1980:

Yet again:

“In the real estate business we’re in an absolute depression, and one of the reasons we’re there is what happened in 1986 .  .  .  Something has to be done. It has to be brought back. It has to be reformed.”

   What is it with liberals giving away Ukraine's land to putin?

    obummer/crimea now Trump/donbas

[Canuck Conservative]

Put pressure on Putin, Mr. President — it’s the only way to end this war

“Probably in the first two minutes,” [Trump] added, “I’ll know exactly whether or not a deal can get done.”

Mr. President, you have your answer: Putin doesn’t want peace, he simply wants conquest.

Putin put on his best fake smile, waved for the cameras, then ominously pointed out how many parts of Alaska have Russian names. He rejected a ceasefire, and instead demanded long negotiations for a comprehensive treaty. This is the dictionary definition of “tapping along.”

While he says he wants more talks and ridiculously floats “next time in Moscow” — an invitation to be dismissed out of hand — his bombardment of Ukraine continues.

You’re right, Mr. President, that the killing must end, and Alaska showed that the only way to do that is to squeeze Putin....

Again:

“What caused the Savings and Loan crisis, other than incompetence and various other things, was the 1986 tax law change. It was a disaster. It took all of the incentives away from investors, etcetera, etcetera, and it was a disaster"

-Donald Trump, 1990-


But then you knew this already, since you have been given this information right here on this forum at least a half dozen times.  Yet here you are yet again pushing a false narrative with a few photos of Trump shaking hands.

[Hoodat]

That's not all that he is demanding.

[catfish1957]

Found it strange that DJT gave the meeting a "10", while his look and mannerisms said otherwise. 

I guess he might be tired, but that sure didn't  look like a guy who pulled of a diplomatic success.

[Timber Rattler]

Or in other words, Putin wants to keep what he's taken, plus the rest of Donbas, with a further commitment that Ukraine will never join NATO, in exchange for stopping shooting at Ukraine.  And the best Trump can offer Zelensky is another worthless "security guarantee" just like the one signed in 1994?

SOME DEAL!!!!

We won't know until Monday at the earliest.  Probably not then either.

Uh, no.  There's more.  Russia's demands can be fully satisfied only when Russian troops occupy the entirety of the country and Ukraine is turned into a Russian puppet state.

Oh, you know that I already know that.  But Trump clearly doesn't.  Does he even know where Donbas is located on a map?  Has he even looked at a map of Ukraine?  I doubt it.

The US has the power to force serious negotiations. Europe will keep supporting Ukraine and push for a 19th sanctions package.”

The Hungarian Prime Minister rejoiced on X that at last the two biggest nuclear powers have stopped exchanging hostile messages.

“Now this has come to an end. Today the world is safer than it was yesterday,” wrote Putin’s friend, wishing everyone that every weekend would bring only good news.
