Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it."

For those that always insist that our country needs to be run like a business, it's time to fire someone. You wouldn't take this kind of crap from an employee, and Trump is our (the American people's) employee. Show him the proverbial door!

Trump talks tougher, now says he warned Putin on meddling, AP, 7/18/18
WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump spent a second day Wednesday managing the political fallout from his widely criticized meeting with Russias Vladimir Putin, shifting stances and mopping up what the White House said were misstatements.
His toughness with the longtime American foe in question, Trump said he told the Russian president face-to-face during Mondays summit to stay out of Americas elections and thats the way its going to be.
...
I let him know we cant have this, Trump told CBS News of his conversations with Putin. Were not going to have it, and thats the way its going to be.
Would he hold Putin personally responsible for further election interference? I would, because hes in charge of the country.
The CBS interview came at the end of two days of shifting statements.
