Trump Really Wants to Meet with Putin
May 4, 2018 at 9:17 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
Susan Glasser: This coming Monday, Putin, already Russias longest-serving leader since Joseph Stalin, will be inaugurated to a new six-year term. In March, Trump defied his own advisers to congratulate Putin in a post-election phone call, then surprised them again by inviting Putin to Washington for a summit meeting. It seems implausible and politically insane to imagine that Trump would even consider a chummy one-on-one with Putin now, especially when the risks to Trump from the special counsel Robert Muellers investigation of Trumps Russia ties appear so significant. And yet the invitation, Im told, was real, and reflects the Presidents strongly expressed personal preference.
Will Trump follow through with itand add yet another high-drama plotline to the already oversubscribed Trump show?
