One simple question. Just what was the purpose of Mr. Trump´s meeting with Mr. Putin? Were any objectives achieved? Or, was the picture taken simply a way of showing U.S. approval of the Russian autocrat and our indifference to everything he´s done from Ukraine to Syria? Of course Putin went home with the prizes. Without giving up any of his gains he is seen as having Trump on his chief cheer leader in the west. After ridiculing all our European friends he proceeded east where he warmly exonerated Russian actions and hinted at future cooperation with the criminales in the Kremlin. If I were a Republican from Wisconsin, I would go home too.
