U.S. in Early Talks for Summit Between Trump and Putin

????.....he did......
This aint dumps agenda, he's too stupid to even know what an agenda is. This is the Republican Racist Rights agenda, the tea baggers, Nazi, conservative, GOPig platform they have been running on for decades. This is talk radio, breitbart, stormfront's, agenda.
This is the Republican party platform.
When ever you vote for a republican this is what you vote for. This is their ultimate goal.
The stars perfectly aligned for them when President Obama was elected. American's weren't ready for a Black President or a woman President, so they used that to their advantage by aggressively attacking both along with voter suppression and their normal cheating they were able to produce dump.
Another time, but I'd make the case deregulation is actually the loss of consumer protectionism, i.e. net neutrality, fidiciary rules, class action lawsuits.
Tax reform is questionable, why is it even necessary if your economy is humming along, especially if it costs you trillions added to the Narional Debt
North Korea is only a start, agreeing to sit down with North Korea has been done before, the results are her to be seen
You could make a case for the economy, but not what Trump has done, rather what he hasn't done, blown the economy he inherited. Plus the economy is a tricky issue, not so sure Americans directly identify Trump with its advancement, if they did, his poll numbers would reflect greater approval
coward.

Maybe be specific and make that "positive change for everyone" rather than just visible change. He definitely has changed some things but are they positive changes for all Americans or just some?
Economic nationalism? LOLOL.. He sold you on that BS as well. He's putting tariffs on Canadian aluminum.
thats an attempt at saving our steel industry, and also part of negotiations with NAFTA and EU.
I personally don't think it's a good idea -our steel industry is too undercut by China pricing.
But there is nothing BS about economic nationalism -China practices it to the extreme extent above of all else
Many presidential candidates are realizing that global overcapacity of steel -- in part due to massive subsidization by foreign governments -- is a huge problem and a chief contributor to the crisis the American steel industry faces. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development estimates that there are about 700 million metric tons of excess steel capacity globally today.
China's government-owned and -supported steel industry represents almost half of the world's steelmaking and more than half of the world's overcapacity. Between 2000 and 2014, Chinese steel production increased a whopping 540%, while U.S. production declined 13%. As has been said by one steel company CEO in testimony before the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission, the Chinese government is a company disguised as a country.
The Chinese government recently set a goal to cut steel excess capacity by between about 100 million metric tons and 150 million metric tons over a five-year period, but it failed to specify how it proposes to achieve these reductions. Meanwhile, a representative of the Chinese steel industry recently conceded that China must reduce its government-owned steel overcapacity by around 400 million metric tons if it is to address the problems caused by past Chinese government industrial policies, according to Reuters. And it must make these reforms now, before further damage is caused, both in China and around the world.
China is not the only source of the surge in steel imports into the United States. Other major offshore suppliers of steel have seen substantial increases in their volumes of exports to the U.S. market in recent years, including South Korea and Turkey. With the rising tide of cheap imports entering the U.S. market from these and other countries, capacity utilization at domestic mills dropped to as low as 60% in early January, an unsustainable level for a capital-intensive steel producer.
If America's steel industry is to survive, the United States must take action to reduce global overcapacity by working to remove subsidized production from the world supply so basic market forces can once again determine outcomes. We must begin this effort by ensuring that our trade laws are aggressively enforced.

Who is a fucking amatuer dilettante like you to make such a broad, sweeping pronouncement??
You have no idea what Putin has up his sleeve re: long range goals and even less reason to trust his motives given his past behavior.
You are a naive rube, hypnotized and mesmerized by Trump's cult of personality.
good grief.Who is a fucking amatuer dilettante like you to make such a broad, sweeping pronouncement??

Improving relationships offers many benefits: from terrorism cooperation to geo-political alignments
to improving both Russia and the EU economy.
Improved relations do not impinge on Putin's ability to act as head of state,nor ourselves.
It's beyond Russiaphobes mindset to understand, as they view EVERYTHING thru a zero sum prism

Your assumptions are all naively Pollyanna in nature. The possible pitfalls are too numerous to count and to obvious to bother pointing out. Trump is not trustworthy to protect America's interests in all the areas you mentioned.
lol...blah blah blah.
don't insult my intelligence with your lack of understanding of the so called "pitfalls"..
Everyone should watch this..........
Putin's Way | Watch S33 E5 | FRONTLINE | PBS | Official Site
https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/putins-way/
Watch full-length episodes of PBS documentary series FRONTLINE for free. Putin's Way - FRONTLINE investigates the accusations of criminality and corruption that have surrounded Vladimir Putin's reign in Russia.
It's a good look of Putin the man/leader, and how he deals with the oligarchs as well.
But realpolitik doesn't require us to deal with Russian corruption/ elections / internals
It's only concerned with the bi-lateral relationship
Putin will blow him out of the water...IF Trump does not blow himself out of the water first.
Even Kim is having his way with him.
Exactly.
My guess is the reason Kim is meeting with him...is because he hasn't finished with him.
What a joke. People like you would be pissing and moaning if these initiatives were the work of a Democrat. And if the Democrat were Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton...your ilk would be going ballistic.
The economy has been improving for 9 years...thanks to Obama.
Unemployment has been going down for 9 years...thanks to Obama.
Trump just takes credit.
The only thing he has "done" is to not screw it up totally yet...but not for lack of trying.
