Time magazine’s latest cover shows Trump and Putin morphed into one
Fox hosts, local and congressional Republicans and former intelligence chiefs described Trump’s performance with terms like “disgusting” and mused about what Putin has on the US president.
“The Summit with Russian Federation was a great success, except with the real enemy of the people, the Fake News Media”, Trump wrote on Twitter.
The Republican president later said he had misspoken and accused “some people” of hating the fact that he got along with Putin.
Trump listed on Twitter the topics he and Putin talked about, but has not given details.
The ambassador said Russian Federation is ready to discuss a proposed new meeting between Putin and Trump, Interfax said.
On Wednesday, the White House said Trump’s answer of “no” to a reporter who asked if Russian Federation was still targeting the United States was just his declining to answer questions. She said the US hopes Putin will have the indicted Russians “come to the United States to prove their innocence or guilt”.
White House officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment, Bloomberg reported.
He also learned of Mr Trump’s decision to invite Mr Putin to Washington for a second meeting this autumn while he was being interviewed at the Aspen forum.
Among those Russian Federation was seeking to question was former United States ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul. In a story explaining the cover, the editors said the merged image represents the conflict between the question of alleged collusion with Russian Federation and the question of whether Russian Federation attempted to influence the 2016 presidential election.
Coats, who is charged with overseeing the nation’s 17 intelligence agencies, also said that if he had been asked, he would have advised Trump against meeting Putin alone, with just interpreters.
“Say that again”, Coats said, cupping his ear, when NBC journalist Andrea Mitchell told him the breaking news.
Putin had signalled after the summit with Trump that he and the US President reached several agreements. Shortly after Sanders’ statement, it passed unanimously a resolution – with a 98:0 vote – against allowing Russian Federation to interrogate Americans.
Russia’s ambassador to the US says Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump should continue to have direct contact after their summit this week. Standing at his side, Putin dismissed the “so-called” interference as a sham, declined to deny that Russian Federation had compromising material on Trump, and offered Russia’s help in analyzing USA intelligence about his country’s own election meddling.
The president attacked critics in the message for chastising his “too nice” treatment of Putin, and argued that they would similarly complain if he had taken a tougher stance on Russian election interference and foreign policy.

Mr Putin said Russian Federation wanted to question United States nationals the Kremlin accuses of “illegal actions”.
In the eyes of Lt. Col. Daniel Davis, a retired US army officer and now defense expert at Defense Priorities, a think tank, has said that “in regards USA interests, it is important not to focus too strongly on style over substance; personalities over policies”.
