   It sounded like the 90 minute 'productive meeting' Trump had with Putin   
   wasn't as productive as he is suggesting. It's more or less Putin saying   
   that if everyone stops supporting Ukraine forever and let Russia do   
   whatever they want there he will end this conflict.   
      
   A big part of the problem is I fear that Putin is what Trump wants   
   to be when he grows up. Able to invade other countries for fun and   
   profit and kill anyone who disagrees with him or runs against him.   
      
   I hear he was trying to have a Judge removed who said what he was   
   doing deporting gang members as an invading army was illegal..   
      
   I gotta say, I'm with Trump on that idea but if you can start   
   just getting rid of any judge who rules against you, the legal   
   system will totally fall apart.
