So, how will the "summit" turn out?

a) bad
b) terrible
c) horrible
d) all the above

Or:

No, Trump will not be tough!

Yes, Putin will play with Trump!

Anybody can see the outcome will be beneficial to Russia and the U.S. will lose on the world stage.

Putin will agree to give up something (pull back troops, decommissioned some nukes,) of negilible or temporary value.

Trump will declare a victory and great progress.

Nothing will actually be accomplished. Unless you include the discussions on what Trump should do when the Mueller team serious shit starts.

But both putin and trump with the russia media will claim they did things they didn't do , just like with trump's NK meeting. He'll give him what he wants, to make a trillion dollars from lifting oil sanctions , and so trump can get his cut from it. Its pretty obvious arrogant trump is displaying for all to see he's a russian putin asset. Hillary was right all along. trump is working for putin , and for all to see, and in time if he gets absolute power he'll brag to all how easy it was , and because he's so much smarter than everyone. He's making putin great again , and again his slogan is the opposite of the truth.

Historical, daring, revolutionary, incredible.

All from the gut of Donald Trump. He never needed any notes or preparation, because he is a stable genius.

hands touching between his legs and pointing down, as if diminishing his presence, and Putin lounging back all spread out as if to say he owned...his chair at least when I turned off.

Trump is the leader of the planet's only superpower, Putin of a pissant, impoverished, underdeveloped nation, but Trump didn't even have the assurance to try to match Putin's presence.

Really want to know what Putin has on him.

Prepare for it, they're going to announce they have come to a massive agreement on something that on further inspection will be a big nothing burger, but they're going to win the headlines for today and then they'll rave about how right they were to continue the meeting.
