I thought of this video from the 2016 campaign at some point yesterday.
Contrast with the following from this week.
No puppet, indeed.
Really, the entire meeting in Alaska was Trump dancing on strings that Putin was pulling.
And for kicks, another trip down memory lane via the BBC: Trump sides with Russia against FBI at Helsinki summit.
At a news conference after the summit, President Trump was asked if he believed his own intelligence agencies or the Russian president when it came to the allegations of meddling in the elections.
“President Putin says it’s not Russia. I don’t see any reason why it would be,” he replied.
US intelligence agencies concluded in 2016 that Russia was behind an effort to tip the scale of the US election against Hillary Clinton, with a state-authorised campaign of cyber attacks and fake news stories planted on social media.
No puppet!!
