Russia: Trump Tells Putin He’d Be ‘Glad to See Him in White House’


Russia has claimed that Donald Trump extended a warm invitation to Vladimir Putin to visit him at the White House, and offered to visit Russia after the Russian leader’s U.S. trip. According to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Trump said: “We proceed from the fact that the U.S. president in a telephone conversation... made such an invitation, said he would be glad to see {Putin} in the White House, would then be glad to meet on a reciprocal visit.” The news of the invitation comes the morning after as former FBI Director James Comey’s memo release offered some weird new details about conversations between Trump and Putin. In his notes on his meetings with Trump in the first months of his presidency, Comey wrote that Trump dismissed allegations that he paid Russian prostitutes to pee on a bed once slept in by the Obamas in a Moscow hotel, but told Comey that Putin spoke of his pride in Russia’s prostitutes. “The president said ‘the hookers thing’ is nonsense,” Comey writes, noting that Trump then brought up the conversation with Putin about Russia having the “some of the most beautiful hookers in the world.”

Have to welcome him to the country, I’m sick of Putin and Russia. He's creeping in. I heard on msnbc news last night they laughed in Russia when trump backed off sanctions. He is a fool, being played as a fool, maybe a very compromised fool and we need a red line between Russia and the US to keep him from destroying our life, liberty and happiness.

Inviting a known terrorist spreading nerve gas onto others in other countries into OUR White House is pretty damming evidence this criminal has him compromised, and under his control. Or maybe he needs more hookers contact number from him.

I mean, all 17 US Intelligence Agencies agreed russia was engaging in Acts of War against the USA by messing up our elections. WTF?

Latter Day republicans may embrace treason against the USA and darkside collusion with the Evil Empire* But Americans do not.
