You’re right on both points. I would have expected some comment from Q on the order of what was written leading up to the NK meet. Here’s hoping there will be many soon.
Also agree with you on the importance of the meet. Always found it suspicious that Russia was the topic used to try to take out Trump. Almost as if the need to keep him from a rapprochement with Putin was of first order desperation. The mind goes quickly to U1.
It’s interesting listening to the panic that Trump will have a one on one with Putin of the same type he had with Kim, just four people - the two principals and two translators. I was about to say that we’ll probably hear later, but thinking back to the Kim meet, I don’t remember getting a clear rundown of that one on one meeting.
Good catch to remind us to watch just now.
I wonder if Putin uses translators. When a photographer said, “Oh, I didn’t know you spoke English!” Putin replied, “I speak perfect English.” :)
I really enjoy this video - it covers (briefly) that exchange and the photo he took of Putin’s “cold face of power”, as well as the famous “crotch shot” (photo) of Bill Clinton, and the photo of Zuckerberg. My favorite remains his interaction with Trump:
