Pompeo says Trump-Putin summit should proceed (3 bylines = 3 times the fake news)

(CNN) -- Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said President Donald Trump should proceed with his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday even as the political fallout continues over the indictments of 12 Russian military intelligence officers for hacking into Democrats' computer networks and emails during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Despite calls by top Democrats in Congress for Trump to cancel the meeting, Pompeo told reporters on his flight back from Mexico Friday night, "I think it's very important that they meet."

"I am confident that President Trump's meeting with Vladimir Putin will put America in a better place," Pompeo said.

Trump plans to meet one-on-one with Putin at the start of their first formal summit talks in Helsinki, Finland, before allowing other aides to participate.

Senior Senate Democrats sent a letter Saturday to Trump urging him not to meet with Putin alone.

"Mr. Putin is a trained KGB intelligence veteran who will come to this meeting well-prepared," they wrote. "As the Kremlin said last week, a one-one-one meeting with you 'absolutely suits' him. There must be other Americans in the room."

“There must be other Americans in the room.”

Translation: we in the Deep State Cabal won’t know what information has been transmitted and we don’t trust you to uphold the interest of the Sacred Elected Elite over those of the SMELLY Walmart shoppers, therefore we must have our people in that room.

Why should Trump allow the Democrats to change his plans by junk indictments whose underlying evidence may never be made known?

The chance Trump would not meet with Putin: 0.00%.

3 bylines = 3 times the fake news

The fake news outlets know that readers lend more credence to articles with multiple "reporters." I wouldn't be surprised to find that the two extra "reporters" are a janitor and a doorman.

It would be more dangerous for Trump to meet with Mueller than with Putin.

Didn't matter that Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch met alone. Democrats must know what happens when there are nobody around to witness conversations. Pure projection.

I don’t see why Trump’s meeting with Putin should be cancelled. Everyone knows that Mueller’s indictment of twelve Russian ham sandwiches was just a move to keep that crazy bastard, Petey Strzok’s testimony to Congress out of the headlines. The leftwing nuts are taking this indictment way too serious.

“Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said President Donald Trump should proceed with his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday” However, this summit “should not proceed” if McCain has anything to do with it. The image of a control freak unto the end.

I originally posted this video just over a year ago (May, 2017). With Trump in or just returned from Moscow, I just resurrected and remastered it to attempt to beat the FAKE NEWS OUTLETS (the paper and electronic counterparts of SEWER OUTLETS) before they start spinning more of their incessant BS about Trump’s alleged “bromance” with Putin and the late night MORONS masquerading as “Talk Show Hosts” get in the act and the perverted prince of morons, Colbert, treats us to yet another disgusting mental image of international sodomy.
It runs a bit over 7 minutes and, if you believe it may help us defeat the MAaSA (Make America a Shithole Again) crowd still being led by the incredible disappearing Obama & the increasingly senile Nancy Pelosi, pass it along. THANKS!
PS: Just in. YouTube just advised that a COPYRIGHT claim has been lodged against the video BUT it MAY remain up. They MAY slap some ads on the thing with the revenue going to the copyright owner. No sweat. I don’t monetize my stuff anyway. Never have.

Why ain’t he dead yet?

Or has he been dead for months and Cindy has been doing the ventriloquist thing?

The funniest outcome of the meeting would be if Putin supplied a number of thumb drives with all kinds of data. President Trump could say I told Vladimir he had to stop and he apologized and gave back all the information that was taken. *giant grin*

There is no “political fallout” just a lot of belly laughs. This is one of the most clownish stunt in history and no one believes it is justified outside the Goebbelsmedia.

If Russia has indictments, Putin should indict Mueller — one ham sandwich deserves another.

Fake indictments - Fake “fallout”. Most Democrats are too stupid to realize what is actually going on out in the real world.

Let them put pink vagina hats on their empty heads; harass people at work, out for dinner or even at their homes; let them cuss, riot, destroy, and misspell signs.

The whole world needs to know what kind of useless leftist fools we have in America and why the American people elected Donald Trump instead of Hillary the Crooked Clown Clinton and her organized crime conspiracy organization.
