    Putin ready to meet Trump: Russian FM
    MOSCOW - Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to meet his US counterpart Donald Trump at the invitation of the United States, but Moscow is waiting for a detailed proposal, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Friday.

    Trump proposed a meeting with Putin at the White House in a phone conversation on March 20, Lavrov recalled in an interview with Russia Today published on the Russian Foreign Ministry's website, adding that Moscow hopes Trump will give specifics on his invitation.

    Trump told reporters on the same day of the phone call that he intended to meet Putin "in the not too distant future."

    US presidents have been meeting Soviet dictators and Russian dictators ever since WWII so why is it "news" that the Trumpocity is planning on meeting his boss?

    So why do you care? Plenty of anti-Trump threads for you to populate.

    Because congress would rather trump not be given any chance to lessen tensions with russia? And apparently the necons don't want it, whether in congress or intel.

    His boss? To make such an accusation lacking evidence is being a bit dishonest, right? ha ha I guess you guys rely and depend upon this? Far too often.

    Well, just look into the mirror. :floating: You were the one who claimed Trump colluded with the Russians, although this thesis has been debunked long time ago.

    Show me a quote that you seem to be alleging that I allegedly made saying that Trump was directly colluding with Russians.

    You cannot so stop making false accusations against me!!

    I could if they were false. But you wrote:

    ...which implies Trump has colluded with "his boss" Putin.

    Yes, and it is a pet peeve of mine, no matter which side does it. At least on the other forum I have been a member of for a long time, there were republicans there that never bought into all of the things claimed about obama, and would voice it. Here with these hillary dem critters, that seems to not exist when it comes to trump. In short, while both sides are the offenders, the repub side, at least on that other forum seemed much more reasonable, some of them, whereas here, not a single one of the hillary dems exhibit anything but views corrupted by hatred. It consumes them. And with this partisanship and hatred, there has been a habit of intellectual dishonesty, conjecture treated as hard fact, and so on. And it is so prolific. But then again, it has been my observation in the last decade or so, that you will find people of higher character and honesty on the right and not on the left. And I say this as a prior democrat, who left the party under clinton when he began to destroy the party of FDR.

    This is not to say that the right does not have its own sin, just that at least you can find more honest people, on the right than the left when it comes to obama and trump and politics in general. I do believe if the RNC had committed the banana republic acts of the DNC, you would have had at least a few republicans who would have found it unacceptable, while I have seen not one example of that on the democrat side. Quite the contrary. I think that says it all, even if in an anecdotal manner. IMO, this is due to some serious christians being on the right side of the spectrum, who try to practice their beliefs. Not all christians, but at least a few of them. I know some of these people personally where I live here in the south. I know both dems and repubs here where I live, and independents. I find that you seem to get a greater character and principled people with the independents, and not apt to indulge in partisan politics and the dishonesty that seems to go hand and hand in such matters. You also get more issue oriented people in the middle group, including myself. All of this of course is just my own opinion, and any bias that I have is a bias against both parties, given I have to believe and accept the Princeton Study, because is sourced and used congressional record to arrive at its conclusions. When hard evidence supports the claim that the average american is no longer represented in DC, using two decades of public record, and that only special interests and rich donors are represented, there is no way I can rationally nor honestly contradict what the hard evidence, evidences.

    That we do not have a representative republic, that operate on those principles cannot be refuted, using evidence. In fact, quite the contrary. And IMO, part of the reason for this, the lack of vigilance in keeping a republic is due in large part to this hyper partisanship, where the party and maintaining its power over rules all else, and the tremendous distraction that this yields. The democrats are proving this in spades in this trump hatred, which reminds me of two pit bull terriers in combat, so as to be oblivious to the greater reality, and not even caring about what should be of the upmost importance. But isn't. Many are not even aware of what the Princeton study evidenced, using public record. And if they are, they must ignore this reality in order to remain partisans, given their party is as much to blame as the gop.

    Where did I say collusion ? Calling Putin Trump's boss is an insult not a call of collusion. Go back and find where I said "collusion".

    NO my calling Putin Trump's boss is a form of insult not collusion. A slave's master is the slave's boss. Slaves do not collude with their master they serve them.
    A slaves master is the slaves boss. A slave does not collude with his master.

    FYI, I do not use FOX or Breitbart or any other right wing outlet. Why would I, given I want the truth? And that of course leaves out MSM as well.

    I depend upon observation, and the rare journalism which adheres to journalistic standards, giving all side of an issue or story. Anything other than that is suspect propaganda, especially when they employ classic, well worn propaganda tactics.

    So once again, your perception is way off base. The only TV sources of info that I watch is CPAN on a regular basis. I keep up with what the Intercept is covering, but even that outlet is far from perfect in adhering to journalistic standards, as most can discern, but at least it does incorporate those much more than one would ever see at FOX and MSM. And I read books, written by retired intel folks, ex wall street banker types, and retired gov't officials. And I have watched closely american politics since the early 1970s, and my opinions are based upon a lifetime of 76 years, of observation and being seriously concerned as an american. Plus, my mind is not one that develops amnesia when the amnesia might serve an ideology and partisanship. I think this puts me in a class of rarified air. And far too few of us and too many of your kind who is guilty of all of the things I mention here on this forum. Not being a partisan of either party is the only place to be, IMO. For we see what partisanship leads to in our times. And it is not an intellectually respectable place to be, where you guys are, IMO.

    Trump and Putin should meet now to keep things from getting completely crazy and out of hand. Thanks to Obama everything went in the ditch because nobody respected him at all. With the Democrats doing everything they can to make things worse today our relationship with Russia is the worst its been since the days of the Soviet Union. We need to get off this track or we could have a war that nobody wants.

    That looks like the Sinclair propaganda attack on the American public where Sinclair made their affiliates read a BS statement which was made to appear to be a news time. I say no thanks to Sonclair's attempt to prpaganada barrage!

    So you are upset that Obama orchestrated sanctions againstvRussia for the invasion of Ukraine? Or are you upset that Obama threw Russian "diplomatic spies " out of the country and closed down their safe houses.
