Well, we know what Obama said behind closed doors with Russia, mainly due to him mocking Romney about the 1980 foreign policy with Russia is over with. Oh, and what he actually said to Putin's right hand man when he thought the mic was off about let me sound tough now, but we will talk after election.
Nobody cared. Everyone was cool with it. Obama was so smart.
Nobody knows what Trump and Putin talked or did not talk about in that closed meeting. But damn, Trump is an idiot. Lets all attack him because that is the cool thing to do.
I am not sure about others in this thread but at one time you were smart/cognizant enough to realize the hypocrisy in that.
And critique what BoilerJS said all day, but seriously, nobody finds it ironic that the media and Europe are trying to paint a picture of Trump wanting to bail on NATO because he critiques them, NATO/EURO is a big ally against Russia, the US should sanction Russia more, but wait, Euro gets 40% of their gas from Russia. They are in bed with Russia more than anyone besides China.
That above paragraph is real similar in hypocrisy to how Trump supposedly/allegedly colluded with foreign governments, but the evidence shows Clinton/Dems/Repubs paid for a dossier to influence election from a foreign sources but that is all but ignored. People just create different realities to fit their beliefs.

Reality is until Europe finds another way to heat their homes nobody is doing a damn thing to Russia. And Russia will not piss anyone off to much because they need that revenue.
As far as Trump and his discussion with Putin, I will wait to see what comes of it. But as I stated above, not much will happen. To much money at stake. And yes it is the money, people should not kid themselves that any of these people give a crap about Europeans freezing.
As for the rest of the week, sure Trump is not a typicaly behaved politician, seems to disdain that, he is boorish and abrasive. At this point, if that surprises anyone, not sure what to say. People that know him and had private meetings with him have said he is gracious and well mannered in the past. I think much of the reason he behaves this way is due to that is how he won the election. All the positive reinforcement one needs.
