President Donald Trump Calls For Russia’s Return To G-7 | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Trump and his voters are the ONLY one’s outsmarted by Putin
@William Unknown hes a brainwashed fool
@Troy Stocker Why do you think Trump is pushing Putin’s agenda? Could it be that Obama’s sanctions are hitting Putin in his wallet. My God man you have an American President pushing a Russian agenda and that doesn’t concern you? He was higging up to Putin when they first met. Every present and former member of our security industry was appalled at Trump’s behavior. At the last G-7 meetings he bashed his predecessor while pushing up on Putin by telling a series of lies. Yet, that doesn’t concern you? Democracy is a fragile thing and once lost it may be hard to regain. Trump is the worst leader since Adolf Hitler.
@Eastwood Unforgiven Excellent article.
How much more open treason are we going to put up with? How much disrespect?
*Trump REALLY SEEMS BEHOLDEN to Putin!*
Y’all leftists are so stupid, can’t even comprehend what Trump was saying… 🙄
RUSSIA……LOL
@Michael Snater Well, we agree on one point… you’re a dummy.
@Geno Yeah, we do. He’s saying what Putin told him to say… just more incoherently. Drumpfuck.
Apparently, according to a source “close to Duetsche bank”, Trump’s multi-million dollar Duetsche bank loans were co-signed by Putin’s oligarchs.
If true, this would mean that Ttump picked his vice-president and cabinet while he was hundreds of millions of dollars in debt to Putin…
It’s impossible to have any faith in what Emperor tRump says.
Everything he says is a lie. His weakness and insecurity drive him
to lie. His stupidity and lack of insight drive him to lie. Emperor
tRump is the biggest liar in history.
Trump’s credibility is just below zero and he just keeps lying. His false claim that BHO had Putin thrown out of the G-8 is just silly. They voted and all seven were in agreement. Putin shouldn’t be dealt with as long as he was occupying the Crimea.
Followed closely by all of his supportters who are lying to themselfs on dmps presidency!
Lol no)). The most liar is mr. Putler. On what you don’t ask him- “This is not us. she drowned)))))) Kursk” “Skripals? We don’t know about they…….”

I’ m sure Mr. Trump is grateful for your vote of confidence ; and is counting on your support for his re- election in ‘ 20.
Winning based on polls? His brain is melting, lol!
This whole thread is full of hatred towards trump for things I’m sure non of you even no but if anyone supports trump there a troll.
@Gg Gg *Know
@Big Mike He’s never been over 44 you moron, Hahahahaha, pathetic Trump supporter lie just as much as Trump.
Looks like the Trump trolls have arrived with no likes and no subs. Hummmmmm, how interesting.
@Randall CanterI know, we need to plan Trump’s funeral arrangements. 😉
Obama’s foreign policy was not certainly the best by any measure, but at least we still had allies and weren’t sucking up to dictators. Now we’re isolated, hated, and inching closer every day to be being run by a dictator.
@quan Brooklyn kid Ha ha ha. You are naive thinking it is confined just to Europe.
We’ve earned the hatred of the world… This is nothing new
We still do have allies, who told you we dont
quan Brooklyn kid I find your comment highly insulting. We constantly support US policies. Even to the detriment of our other relationships and plenty of our soldiers died in your wars. The UK loved the Obama’s. Compare any Presidential visit to Trumps visit and you will see the marked difference.
The other countries should demand a neutral location due to Trump’s insanity.
Tony DeMaria the alternative is defer the scheduled G7 meeting to August 2021 when there is a normal US president elected.
No better yet no one will show up except for his bed buddies(Table cloth man, Putin, and many more)
Let trump have the next G7 at his club. The other members won’t turn up, they’ll go elsewhere 😉
Someone please ask Trump to locate Crimea on a globe/map and put what happens on video please and thank you! 🙂
A Brit mocking someone elses geographic skills. The irony!

While Obama was in office, Putin went into Crimea with army and took it. Obama didn’t do anything to prevent Putin. Just as he never did anything to help all the Christians being slaughtered. In China, Obama left Air force one from the belly of the plane. Other’s going to same meeting had accommodations. Research it.
@Leeanne Bishop No. Obama & Co. arranged a coup (talk about interference) in Ukraine, in the vain hopes of blocking Russian access to the Black Sea, and advancing NATO to Russia’s doorstep. Russia reacted by taking Crimea (90% ethnic Russian and Russian territory, except for a handful of years, since Katherine the Great). For Russia, this is the very essence of ‘vital interest’. What’s our ‘vital interest’ there ? Another debacle from Obama the Great (along with Libya and Syria).
Lol good one
But did he ask Moscow Mitch before calling for this?
Trump is insane.
Oh, he’s not insane in the sense that he mistakes a banana for a choo-choo train– he’s lucid, and not hallucinating.
He’s insane by way of having such an extraordinary character disorder, and being so profoundly self-obsessed, that his reasoning is completely devoid of ethical evaluation. Completely. He has no conscience, no moral system, whatsoever. These things are simply absent.
His narcissism is so complete that he lives in a different dimension; while not fully psychotic and misperceiving his surroundings, in terms of meaning and being– in terms of human civilization and ordered society– he is not even living in the same world as you or me.
A super-narcissist such as Trump lives inside a membrane of self-reflection. When you and I observe the world, we evaluate it for meaning, for intention, for threat, for justice and injustice, for logical projection, for preservation and protection, for security and for hope. We evaluate the world considering everyone who is affected by any particular issue. Human beings are innately empathetic and broadly concerned for one another. We are social creatures.
Trump doesn’t experience any of that. He experiences himself looking at himself– looking at himself being looked at by others.
It’s like living inside of a big plastic bag, but not objecting to it– admiring himself in it. He can possibly see what’s outside the film, but only partly, if at all.
This film– this membrane of incessant self-involvement and self-aggrandizing– is fully developed and accreted (hardened) in him, and it’s his compensation for being completely unskilled and completely at a loss existentially.
It’s a fantastic defense mechanism.
And Trump is made of it– he is made out of sociopathic narcissism, and he is made of nothing else.
There is nothing else there.
This is why he strikes us as something alien and absurd and completely nonsensical and catastrophic in a leadership role.
Yes.
It’s because he literally is not here with the rest of us. He is not here.
Pilfer Bean…👏👏👏
100% agree. And I want to add, he has always been this way. People trying to say that he is being worse by the day are correct only in one sense. He is being worse since all the grownups in the daycare are gone and only the yespeople are left. This lets us see the full extent of his narcissism.
Also, I believe the pressure is getting to him. His whole “self made man” image was a complete lie. He is unfit and unqualified to run anything, especially the office of the presidency. The sheer volume of the absurd things he has been saying these past couple of weeks seems to, at least in part, speak to this pressure. I do not think he expected to win the election, don’t even think he wanted to. But you give a man like Trump this kind of power and he will not easily give it up. He is desperate to win in 2020. (There may also be the fear of indictment once he is a private citizen again, which is also a pretty good incentive.) Because Trump thinks only in transactional terms, the things he says make sense to him. He moved the embassy to Jerusalem, therefore, all Jewish Americans should vote for him. And are unpatriotic if they do not. That is how he sees it. This whole “chosen one” thing seems to be on another level, but of course, a Malignant Narcissist would grab onto that like candy to a baby. Completely off the rails, in constant desperate campaign mode Trump is chilling to watch. He attacks, deflects, and attacks some nore. This wannabe dictator is a mess, and is unfit for office.
@Shelley Dwyer-Murphy Yes. Well said.
@Liberty Liberal It was one of the worst things that could have happened– when Trump figured out that he could get rid of anyone who constrained him. When he gradually arrived at the idea that he’d had enough of these advisers and handlers, and he’d go it alone. No press briefings. No scheduled internal policy briefings. Nothing.
No more babysitting. The whole thing descended much faster once he removed anyone who’d ever disagree with him.. .
And we’ve been in much more danger ever since.
What else would you expect from a russian puppet!
With the right…. whatever.
Where can I buy a shirt with that on it. Brilliant!
Trump’s 2020 slogan: “Make America Whatever Again”.
“Obama got outsmarted by Russia” I don’t think so. But Trump did get outsmarted by an umbrella.😂🤣
Well in Trumps defense the umbrella did not have directions in pop up book style LOL.
I hope next year that the G6 boycott the meeting. Or do it somewhere else and not invite trump.
Evil, Un American Trump is just following orders from his Puppet Master.
Putin’s not gonna waste a chance to have his boy speak up for him Obama put sanctions on Russia so we can see that trump’s a double agent
YES AND TRUMP TOOK THEM OFF
Trump hopes that Putin will put him in WH once again, if he defends Putin`s crimes.
It’s his only chance and they can hack the voting machines again.
He is ACTING DELUSIONAL so we will declare him crazy and he won’t be INDICTED for ALL his CRIMES and clearly Unconstitutional Acts!
Exactly! I was thinking the same thing. He knows that the FBI has dirt on him. He’s “not all there upstairs”, but he’s ACTING totally insane so he’ll get off scott-free!
Putin: “Donald, get me back in the G7.”
Trump: “Right away, boss!”
“I don’t care about politics”
*Translation:* I am probably gonna lose the next election so why should I care? I better use my power as US president to do Putin’s bidding. In exchange, I get to secure a business deal with Russia once I am out.
It always has been about him and his business, in case you haven’t figure it out already
2020 is a sure win for him.
The Democrat fairies dont stand a chance against this alpha (albeit deranged) male
@Lex-Appeal i knew thier was a trump supporter here.
I don’t support politicians. Most of them are psychopaths and at the end of the day they dont have much real power. The power lies behind the throne$
Making up stories on the G-7 World stage, Christ he is making a laughing- stalk out of the U.S.
