Russian state TV upping anti-Ukraine rhetoric, saying Trump will tell Putin he'll look the other way

Julia Davis tweeting about the latest from Russian state TV, tweets posted minutes ago:






#Russia’s state TV:
The host asks: “How should we deal with Americans?” Politician Zatulin: “Let’s blow up a nuclear bomb to get their attention. But no, we can’t act like #NorthKorea. Calmly sit on the porch & you'll see the corpse of your enemy being carried down the street.”







#Russia’s state TV:
Experts and politicians seem very certain that Russia will get something for nothing as the result of the Trump-Putin summit. Political scientist opines that Bolton is crazy about Iran and Russia “could trade #Iran for #Ukraine, but what for? What for?”







#Russia’s state TV:
Levels of anti-Ukraine hysteria are reaching the 2014' fever pitch. Back to the theme of the alleged “Nazi government” and claims that Ukraine presents “a national security threat to Russia.” This type of rhetoric in the past preceded military escalation.







#Russia’s state TV:
Politician Konstantin Zatulin (Dep. Chair of the State Duma's CIS committee), says that unlike #NorthKorea, Russia doesn’t need to do anything special to be recognized as a great power. He says, Russia is already doing whatever it wants in #Ukraine and #Syria.







#Russia's state TV:
Politicians & experts reiterate their belief that Trump & Putin will enter into a "secret verbal agreement," wherein Trump will look the other way w/ respect to #Ukraine. Political scientist: “Agenda for the Trump-Putin summit should omit the word “Ukraine.””

It's like, geez wiz, it's too many people on planet earth. It needs to be cleansed and while at it, let's make a profit. Also, let's put religion in to the mix, that never fails to incite them.
