The world will be so much better off when both of these people are in the ground.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

My guess is Trump is in no shape to travel, be seen outside of a chair, etc.
Other people speculated that Putin is afraid to go anywhere in Europe.
Probably both.
There is no way putin will take the risk to fly over EU airspace.
Which is funny because EU wouldn't do anything. . . He's crazy paranoid
They'll hint at selling Tomahawks to Ukraine by end of the week.
I wonder if they give each other makeup tips.
I don't see Putin turning orange or Trump shaving his head so probably not.
He's starting to look fairly orange in that pic, but it could be the editing, I suppose.
He got his instructions from Putin in the 2 hour phone call. No need to fly anywhere unless he’s getting a big gift.
Why wasn't the fake Putin that was sent to Alaska not a bigger story? That was hilarious
Really? I missed that… link?
A 35 minute video. Is there a timestamp we can scroll to?
I got you, dude. Starts at like 6:40 and goes on and on, but I'll sum it up: Video of Putin who doesn't look or act quite like Putin. Guy in the video admits straight up that this is absolutely conspiracy theory before showing video of Putin making some odd facial expressions. It then goes on to talk about how this has been speculated about for a long time and how Russian news has shown Putin being in more places at once. I stopped watching, but it seems plausible. I can vouch that it's been speculated about for many years now. However, is it proven fact? Nope.
What will Putin do with all that polonium-210 he had saved up for the meeting?
Putin has reached the short term goal that Trump will not deliver Tomahawk missiles. So he sees no necessity to meet the imbecile.
If Trump re-urgitates the idea to actually support Ukraine, and Putin cannot bring him to heel again over the phone, he might have to bite the bullet and meet him to give Trump proper marching orders again.
Mom is gonna be pissed
