President Trump ripped Germany for their natural gas import deal with Russia at the NATO summit. It turned the media cross-eyed. CNN spends eighteen months comparing Trump to Hitler, then the moment Trump starts ordering Germans what to do, CNN can't believe he'd do such a thing.
Vladimir Putin spoke to reporters covering the Helsinki summit, saying the Cold War is over. That war was a forty year stand-off between two ideologies that hated each other with a nuclear fury. Putin can say the Cold War is over but he doesn't watch White House press conferences.
President Trump's refusal to confront Putin to his face at their post-summit press conference sent Democrats, CNN and establishment Republicans into a fury. It never ends. Hollywood is so certain that Trump is a Russian plant they're making a movie about it called the Siberian Candidate.
Hillary Clinton opened her speech to a union convention in Pittsburgh Saturday by remarking how tired she's been. However she's not going quietly. Hillary spoke out against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, prompting fears among Democrats that he may be confirmed as President.
The Justice Department indicted twelve Russian officers for hacking into Democrat computers and e-mails during the last election. They wanted to cause havoc. If I were Vladimir Putin, I'd have wondered if the summit in Helsinki was just a ruse to allow Trump to serve me with a subpoena.
