My theory for the "extra long" meeting between them is that Trump wasn't allowed to leave until he

[TeamPooka]

was dismissed.
Trump thinks getting all that time is great but doesn't realize he showed Putin his time is worthless.
"Sure, I'll sit around here with you shooting the breeze because I clearly have nothing better to do or places to go."
and Putin kept him there to show the world that he owns the guy and his schedule.
The American President folks.

1. Since nothing trump ever says is true, ever, there is no way to ever know what

happened.

I know for a fact that trump owes putin and other oligarchs in Russia huge sums of money, so he will do what he is told.

How do I know for a FACT? Same way I know if a pig is walking across a field, I am looking at a pig.

12. We have the following facts:

Team USA tried to break the meeting up including sending in Melania at the one hour mark.

The meeting was scheduled for 30 minutes.

Putin had an agenda/Trump had jack shit.

When you are negotiating with a person who lacks knowledge and is a fucking idiot your first move is to extend the negotiations. This is especially true if the person has a short attention span. You then wear down the person, throw a lot at them, then go in for concessions.

The FUCKING IDIOT IN CHIEF WAS PLAYED!

13. I figured Drumpt wouldn't leave until he got a replacement red tie, transmitter installed.

2. Well well,Putin just took over as the World so called leader

without firing a shot. Long story short my friends.

Merkel and Macron will have to pick up the pieces.

[dalton99a]

8. Yep.

[ProudLib72]

3. I think it's because tRump rambles

Rambling + gushing = extra long meeting. You know Vlad is succinct, so it was all on tRump to carry the conversation. He probably told his BFF every single secret he could remember in between the strings of compliments.

[unblock]

6. most of the time was spent trying to explain to the russian translator what "bigly" means.

[ProudLib72]

7. Hand gestures sure wouldn't have helped! nt

[Wellstone ruled]

9. Trump Inc.

renewed over 1000 brand labels in Russia the first of the week.

This whole Trump Crime Family thing is all about BRANDING!!!!!!!

[The Wielding Truth]

4. I think they were just suring up the EXXON deal. That's really all this is about. Trillions of $$.

[KewlKat]

5. I don't suppose anybody recorded this event....anybody that might be monitoring their behavior for

any investigative merit? Would be nice if some other country's intelligence group listened in.

[MiddleClass]

10. It takes a long time to dictate marching orders to trump

Did you get the map of how I won the election?

Now Donald concentrate your ruining my good election work.

But, but, Vladimir did you get the map of my victory.

Donald, please concentrate, you must stop Tweeting, you'll get impeached.

But but, Vladimir. You saw those huge crowds at my inauguration.

Donald, please, your going to force.

…… 2 hours later……

But, but, Vladimir, the huge crowds

[iluvtennis]

11. Yep, it takes that teeny, tiny, little brain a long time to absorb anything.

[TeamPooka]

14. But if you give him two scoops of ice cream he'll do whatever you say.

[iluvtennis]

15. LOL, true dat. nt
