I suspect he'll continue to run in circles, like a deranged hampster in a wheel.
Putin is playing him like a fiddle. He has no interest in peace unless it's on his terms. Trump will be unable to persuade Ukraine or their European allies to accept Putin's victory.
So round and round we go again with more Trumpian hot air and bullshit.

I still feel Trump will acknowledge "how difficult it is for a busy tyrant like Putin to make such a meeting" and so do sweet f a.

You may be right but it will be interesting to see Trump’s response. Putin’s deliberate choice of a low level delegation is flipping the middle finger at the west, including Trump.

Notice the deputy foreign minister and deputy defence minister. Both just the deputies then.
Not even Lavrov or Shoigu.
Surely even Trump must smell a rat by now? Surely?
Trump might admire Putin EVEN MORE for not turning up!!
Sorry, you can see what side of bed I got out of
I did see that - a momentary pleasure not to read Lavrov 's name...but yes indeed.

Even now, Putin is still attempting to play the presidential power games, while the total of Russian casualties approaches 1 million.

Let's face it Russia has absolutely no intention to negotiate, they will do the same as they have so far, set out their demands, take it or leave it. The whole thing today is just a charade. Token gesture. Pretend negotiations. Witless will say their demands are reasonable, convince Trump (without much difficulty) it's Ukraine being difficult and he should support Russia.
Feeling very cynical this morning but everything Russia and Trump does makes me despair.

And force the injured back to the front to a certain death. Job's a good'un.Reduced costs for Russian social security, pensions and prison staff
Yes indeed. . waiting for black smoke from the chimney.
I have no faith that Trump will sanction his autocratic hero further.

"Trump has been placed in a position where not only he could, but he should (if all those tweets were honest) move to hit Russia and help Ukraine. Putin, oddly, doesn’t seem worried that this will happen. Perhaps he thinks Trump is on his side, and that Trump’s public statements are full of sh@t. I mean, its not like the first signs are that Trump is already defending him."Phillips O'brien latest article just dropped. Putin believes Trump is on his side and is playing him as fool.
