This morning trump said working with putin will be easier than meeting with NATO

Traitor.

President Trump told reporters on Tuesday morning that Russian President Vladimir Putin is "a competitor," but that that the meeting with him may be easier than Trump's meeting with NATO allies this week, per pool reports.

Why it matters: These comments echo concerns from European officials told to Axios' Jonathan Swan that Trump will "spend the entire NATO summit beating up on America's closest allies — especially Germany — for not spending enough on their defense .. [a]nd that he'll have a friendlier summit with Putin just a few days after."

He's in a jam, and is desperately trying to please putin , so he'll raise the sanctions for him to save himself by bypassing Congress again claiming national security, plus his newest kangaroo court member has probably already agreed to protect him , and make him our king. If trump gets him installed, he IS above the rule of law, and god help us and our country then.
