Putin says willing to meet Trump whenever US is ready

Source: AP

QINGDAO, CHINA -- Russian President Vladimir Putin said Sunday that he's happy to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump once Washington is ready to hold the summit and welcomed Trump's call to bring Moscow back into the G-7 group of leading industrialized nations.

Speaking to reporters in Qingdao, China, Putin said that some nations, including Austria, have offered to host his summit with Trump, should they have one.

"The U.S. president has repeatedly said that it's reasonable to hold such a meeting," Putin said on the sidelines of a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. "As soon as the U.S. side is ready, the meeting will take place, depending, of course, on my working schedule."

Putin said he shares Trump's expression of concern about a renewed arms race expressed in a March phone call.

will bring a copy of the pee-pee tape as a gift for little Don the Con? He could tell him it is the only copy, and tRump would believe his friend Vlad. Having Vlad at Mar-A-Lago must have been a tRump dream for years.

Instead of going Pesci on him, Donny will say, "Yes, Vlad. Anything for you, Vlad!"

Maybe even before that if Mueller manages to indict Pence for treason/obstruction before Trump leaves office, and then they can both meet Putin for shashliks at his favorite place where all his other meat gets skewered and grilled.
