It's a bit ridiculous what Putin is saying there, but it's also a perfectly reasonable expectation. A conversation between two heads of state must have some degree of privacy just for simple diplomatic relations to work. Remember that Trump got the okay from the Ukrainian president before releasing that transcript.
Can anyone name for me any other President whose phone calls to foreign heads of state were made publicly available to everyone? Should we insist on the release of all prior calls from all prior presidents? How far down this rabbit hole are we willing to go.
Hilarious. I wonder if Trump asked him to say that. It remind me of Trump's (false) claim that he couldn't release his taxes because he was being audited.
I see nothing unusual about it. There are probably agreements about this, just as we or someone else, just cannot go share classified info unless the other country agrees.
I thought he could declassify anything he wants. I'm sure I've heard this recently.
That’s right little Donny- if big daddy Vlad says no, you’d better listen, lol.
BIG Problem~~~~ DJT isn't ( tho wishes he was and acted IF he was a Dictator like Putin) Cannot follow "Putin's directive ( plainly interpreted by that tweet by Putin)
Putin surely has had enormous success.. BUT, he should Never ever prevail bring down a "Nation of laws that has a "Constitution"... Lawmakers bound by this will be held accountable IF supports DJT and Putin's directive!!
I'd bet the Farm that the Courts will find DJT's actions and open and obvious declarations will be DJT's Regime will end by his own open actions!! Putin's input is only a caveat that supports WHAT he wants DJT to do!
Pence and many others within WH legal + staffers + others will become victims of DJT as well!! I always believed if Condoning BAD things.. will be plastered onto those who say "Nothing"!! These folks may or may not testify on truths.. BUT regardless.. Subservience employees must decide !! Tell the Truth or suffer the consequence.!!
The Mouthpieces promoting DJT's bullying, supporting his il conceived BS/alternate " Facts NO LONGER can be acceptable NOW!!
Damages to USA standing in the world and their relationship with Allies has been destroyed.. Zero Trust etc.
Time will only tell in the future how that turns out!! Meanwhile PUTIN/North Korea and other Dictatorships leaders will have to step back IF a True Patriot become the leader of USA. Pence has been tainted.. because he not just supported DJT.. But, actually lied to the world what DJT wanted// painting FALSE Narratives! His future is not certain
It'll be funny to watch all of the "flag waving, 'merica bows to no country" folks suddenly turn on a dime and say "what right does the USA have to do something if Vladmir Putin says not to"
Crazy how partisan political parties make you change your tune so quickly (it happens on both sides, BTW)
Putin said.... Hold my beer while I troll the Dems in the USA.. and it worked!
Well, a guy who's only political experience came from being a Twitter troll was elected by the Repubs so is it really that big of a surprise?
