That he didn't want his "victory" to be diminished. But if that is true...there's no reason to meet at all. Meeting alone makes his motives even more suspicipous. Meeting also opens up the subject. If I was trying to hide I wouldn't meet. It is all a giant mystery. And then, I read an article by someone who interviewed trump in 1987. The author said back then that trump was very well versed in nuclear matters and curbing their proliferation.

Could this all be some weird combination of motives? Could he want to feed his huge ego by being the one person who reduces/eliminates nukes? Hmmmm. Allow the federation to influence America in exchange for all the glory of no nukes?

He's been in Russia's pocket since the 2016 campaign, and likely years before that.

Perhaps they meant, "not a double agent." It's kind of a double-negative thing. They could just say he is an agent of Russia.
