It looks to me that Putin has dug himself into hole he would like to get out of now. He needs something to claim victory and save face.....kind of like Khrushchev in the Cuban Missile Crisis. If the west holds and it looks that way, what is the upside for Putin???

Presidents Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin have “accepted the principle” of a summit

Quote:
French President Emmanuel Macron proposed that the U.S. and Russian leaders hold a summit to discuss security and strategic stability in Europe, followed by a second summit with relevant stakeholders, Elysee said in a statement late Sunday. Biden and Putin have accepted “the principle” of the summit, it said.

I hope Joe shares his tough-guy Corn Pop story with Vladi. It impressed all of us on this side of the pond.

Whatever. Putin is playing Dumbo Corn Pop like an old guitar. If he wants to invade Ukraine, he's going to do it. There is no one to stop him. Corn Pop certainly ain't going to do it because Corn Pop just got through getting his ass kicked bigtime by a bunch of Neanderthal goat herders. Putin know that. He's laughing at Corn Pop, as is the rest of the world. I'm surprised we still have any nations in the world that want anything to do with us. We're now a joke, thanks to Corn Pop and his thoroughly idiotic band of morons he put in the military high command. You'd better just hope Putin doesn't decided to invade us.

I think Obama is the real Corn pop though. Or at least in Biden's demented mind.

It's not about Dumbo Corn Pop....the Dumbo is Putin. He underestimated the Western Alliance....and the Western Alliance is remembering how much influence they can exert.

Can you imagine a summit between Biden and Putin? Putin will be convinced the entire country is as senile and incompetent (and incontinent) as old Oatmeal. Not a pretty picture. I can't imagine anything good can come out of such a meeting for the US or for NATO.

I have the utmost confidence in Joe Biden to not allow himself and our country to be played by other world leaders. (Yeah, right.)

Two possible outcomes. Biden falls asleep or he soils himself. Putin gonna eat his lunch.
