right here, our national leaders like congresswoman like senator elizabeth warren or congresswoman maxine waters. he s always got smack to talk, or to our international leaders like merkel or may. but when he stood next to president putin, he melted like butter. whatever it was so this president has a problem. whether it was gender, whatever it was, jason, it looked bad, and it led to this moment on the floor of congress today. we have sworn an oath to defend our constitution the gentleman s time has expired. against all enemies foreign and domestic. the gentleman s time has expired. you have the opportunity to do that today! usa! usa! the democrats chanting usa. very interesting, jason, miller, if not telling. they all take an oath to protect america against enemies foreign and domestic.
all right. so after the helsinki horror show, president trump should have reversed course, but he sees that as weakness. so instead, he s doubling down and inviting putin back to his house literally, bringing him to washington, d.c. this fall. this is like a bad movie. when he told his family, his new boyfriend was the town creep who broke into their house. he responded to their outrage by inviting vlad home for the holidays. that s what s going on. this is the sarah sanders tweet. take a look at it. the discussions are already under way. the director of national intelligence hadn t even been told about this. this is the, mom, he already bought his ticket part of this melodrama movie. so what are they going to do when they re here? that s the plot. and trump says, well, he s changed. putin wants to help on terrorism. he wants to help secure israel and nuclear proliferation, stop
the uk for russia after the poisoning. coincidence? maybe to trump. not the time to invite putin into our house. and there s just one chance that could make this all okay. the climax as trump sees it is that everything that he s doing, all the kid gloves, the molly coddling and everything else is to work with putin to save the world from nuclear proliferation. now, if that s the tradeoff for all of this curious weakness and submissiveness to an autocrat, that might be okay. but there are two pieces of video that make a mushroom cloud of that mission at this point. the first was when putin sent missiles to florida. you remember that? in the chris wallace interview, he says, well, it doesn t say florida on it. we don t know. it s a land mass that looks just like florida. he was punking trump, and it worked. trump said nothing about it. then just this week, they want to talk about strategic limitation of arms? well, then why did they do this? why did they show some of their
russia is the key. that s why i m being nice to him, because we need him to fix everything, and that s why i m inviting him home for the holidays. to the people s house, chris. you know, it just doesn t make sense to me. this president has never followed the lead of president obama before, and it s just quite telling that he wants to blame everything on president obama. president donald j. trump, news flash, is the president right now, and he has an obligation to protect this country and to stand up to president putin. talking to your adversary is one thing, but being totally rolled by your adversary is another thing and insulting the intelligence community on foreign soil is not cute. it s not nice. and the president absolutely went a bridge too far or in the words of my grandmother, he wrote a check that his behind could not cash, even though she would have said the other word, chris. asset. asset, yes. it s funny that he can be tough when it comes to women leaders
they got from assad that they got from russia. so russia is going to be a major player in this. so how does forgiving them for their malevolence make it more likely they will help you. but, chris, prior to the press conference, and i do think the president could have been stronger in the press conference stronger? he has criticized russia. he said russia was behind the meddling a number of times before. he s absolutely said that. when putin came out, he even said that trump was challenging him on a number of these fronts that i discussed just a moment ago. you need that first meeting to feel each other out, see what the situation is. then it s that second meeting where i think we re going to get down to the details and that s where trump can get it accomplished. that s part of the reason they got out in front of it and said the invite is there. let s make putin come here. l let s press him. here s the one word of caution i would say. for the second meeting, the second meeting
