Putin Says He's Inviting Trump to Visit Him in Moscow
Source: Reuters
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday he had invited U.S. President Donald Trump to Moscow and that both he and Trump were ready for further summits, but that conditions needed to be right for a meeting to take place.
Putin and Trump met in Helsinki earlier this month at a summit, but Trump faced a storm of criticism back home for his handling of the meeting.
Speaking to reporters at a summit of BRICS countries in South Africa, Putin said telephone calls between Moscow and Washington were insufficient and that both sides needed to meet to talk about issues like the Iran nuclear deal, conflicts in the Middle East, and arms control treaties.
Regarding our meetings, I understand very well what President Trump said. He has a desire to have further meetings, to hold further meetings. I am ready for that. We need for the appropriate conditions to exist, to be created, including in our countries, Putin told a news conference.
We are ready for such meetings. We are ready to invite President Trump to Moscow. By all means. By the way, he has such an invitation, I told him about that.

(8,200 posts)Benedict Arnold sold out West Point. What's Trump's price? A couple of hotels and more loans from the Russian mafia? He was willing to sell out Hilary Clinton, a citizen and foe of Putin, for the promise of dirt that they never delivered. The Russians have exploited this worthless man without a shed of decency who is solely motivated by his personal gain at the expense of his country.

(54,330 posts)Trump has resigned, and Vladimir Vladimirovitch wants his money back. Trump gets an economy cell in the Lubyanka until he signs over the deeds to all properties that he owns free of debt. Oops, that doesn't work. Putin owns them already.
OK, Putin manipulates the midterms, and now owns both the Speaker of the House AND the Senate majority leader. THEN Trump can visit Moscow. It's the only place where he can't whine when the local papers call him "Tramp," since the Russian language doesn't have a short "u," and the Cyrillic alphabet doesn't have a letter that sounds quite like it.
*Putin won't keep him there permanently. Russia has enough pollution problems of its own as it is.

(12,645 posts)Not only is it a dominance play, he wants to meet with Drumpf in a location he can control, where he is the one recording everything that goes on.
Wonder how much criminally incriminating and outright treasonous discussions he is planning to have with "The Donald"?
Or at least, he doesn't want our IC to see "the tune-up" his people will have to do on his puppet.

There are so many people who own firearms in the US, everyone in Europe thinks we're out of control.
On the other hand, they have very strict gun control in Russia. So he only has to worry about a military coup there.

I hope Putin cans his ass...
