The two leaders are due to meet on July 16 in Finland, and CNN previously reported Trump plans to meet Putin one-on-one before bringing in others to join their discussions.

During a rally in Montana on Thursday, Trump mocked critics of his approach and preparation for the summit with Putin....

Yes.

...But I am concerned, and I know there is concern across Europe, about what might be promised."

I'm pretty sure of one thing: Trump won't promise to buy billions of dollars of natural gas from the Russkies while bankrolling the pipeline and make their nations more dependent than ever on this supposed bad guy Putin like the socialist Euros have done.

Maybe Trump will want to “re-set” relations. Or promise to be more flexible. Oh, the horror.

“Flake is an a$$.”

In my opinion, he’s far worse than that.

When Obama promised “flexibility” and Clinton “reset” with Russia, not a peep from the a-hole politicians and media whores.

Wait til you see the next one they force upon us. It’s our reward for getting rid of Flake.

I like Donald Trump talking face to face with the Kim Jong Un’s and Vlad Putin’s and what not.

Sure beats the alternative but Flake is a McCain guy and the agenda there is backed by money from somewhere.

The defense industry for sure with Senator McCain’s background, but what foreign governments does the defense industry get money from.

Russian influence has been blown up too big so we ignore the Saudi dollars and yes, even money from folks who support Israel.
