Why?
The biggest question was probably why the President would do such a thing.
Trump was known for his unorthodox approach, which didn’t always work well for him.
Another issue present was the desire to have 12 Russians sent to the U.S. for questioning regarding election meddling.
However Putin said he would allow an American law enforcement agent to witness questioning in Russia.
How much of a help that would be was uncertain, but the White House seemed to set on having them come to the U.S. Trump considered the offer by Putin an incredible one.
“It is a proposal that was made in sincerity by President Putin, but President Trump disagrees with it,” Sarah Sanders said. “Hopefully President Putin will have the 12 identified Russians come to the United States to prove their innocence or guilt.”
Chuck Schumer felt the invitation was a bad idea.
“Until we know what happened at that two hour meeting in Helsinki, the President should have no more one-on-one interactions with Putin. In the United States, in Russia, or anywhere else,” he said.
Trump blamed the media calling them the real enemy of the people.
He tweeted, “The Summit with Russia was a great success, except with the real enemy of the people, the Fake News Media.”
It seemed very unlikely that the same media that portrays a story and it gets the approval because it helps should be receiving criticism because it exposes issues.
