Why would Marco allow Witkoff to meet with Putin alone? He should have had a team of advisors and US translators. Are these people really this stupid?

Yes I think they are тАж. Plus the agenda is not to preserve democracy but to destroy it тАж.. the orange dumpster wants to rule and align with the autocrats тАж.. itтАЩs clear тАж. He is a lawless criminal with no respect for our country тАж.. a con artist schooled by His mentor Roy Cohn who had no integrity. We are doomed because of the right wing conspiracy Hiliary advised us about years ago тАж. She was correct , if only the masses had listened тАж.. but his appeal to the worst in us instead of our better angels has borne the fruit of greed, crime, lawlessness, racism, misogyny and inhumanity

Exactly now he has that demon miller in his ear as well as thiel and yarvin ready and planning to destroy USA.

How these evil, bloodthirsty dictators - Putin and Netanyahu - are allowed to invade other countries, torture and murder innocent people, commit heinous war crimes. Trump is allowing it all.

Wait a minute. This is very much like Trump's private meeting with Putin in Helsinki. No US translator. No US witnesses. No notes. No recording of the conversation for reporting to US citizens or Press.

Perhaps Little Marco, our Secretary of State and Trump World insider, does know quite well what's going on. Up to his neck in treachery? Or enabling treachery?

They knew before they even got in the president's residence. They're traitors, so of course they're going to lie to keep from being held accountable for breaking law after law and to keep from being held accountable for treason. Criminals never tell the truth, they just lie, lie, lie and project onto others.

Check out Olga Lautmans interview with Lev Parnas. It sheds light on Witkoff and the very important context and backstory. Pure gold and the story that Trump and his allies donтАЩt want told.

Arrogance, and the fact that his family is somehow attached to Russia, so he thinks he's in the family or something. But no, it's just more unprofessional, unqualified, people doing really important jobs.

There wasnтАЩt someone from the US to at least memorialize the conversation? ThatтАЩs insane. This administration has such hubris. ItтАЩs sickening, and itтАЩs whatтАЩs given Americans a bad name for decades.

Putin wouldn't meet with anyone but Witcoff. Putin gets what Putin wants where Trump is concerned.

Why? Told to do so by Trump to hide what said. Corrupt, not stupid

Yes yes yes yes yes yes a thousand times yes. Most likely Putin and the translator were discussing your very question while Witless thought he was doing high level diplomacy.

How do you say "can they be THIS STUPID" in Russian?
