After President Trump & Putin Finally Meet … After 2 Hours the US and Russia Reach Syria Cease-Fire Deal
THIS IS WHAT UNITED STATES PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP LOOKS LIKE …
It is what everyone was anticipating from the G20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany, the meeting between American President Donald J. Trump and Russian President Putin. Following a 2 hours meeting between President Trump and Putin in which many important topics were discussed, agreement was reached Friday on a cease-fire in southwest Syria. According to the AP, the cease-fire goes into effect Sunday at noon Damascus time.
The United States and Russia struck an agreement Friday on a cease-fire in southwest Syria, crowning President Donald Trump’s first meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. It is the first U.S.-Russian effort under Trump’s presidency to stem Syria’s six-year civil war.
The cease-fire goes into effect Sunday at noon Damascus time, according to U.S. officials and the Jordanian government, which is also involved in the deal.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who accompanied Trump in his meeting with Putin, said the understanding is designed to reduce violence in an area of Syria near Jordan’s border that is critical to the U.S. ally’s security.
It’s a “very complicated part of the Syrian battlefield,” Tillerson told reporters after the U.S. and Russian leaders met for more than 2 hours on the sidelines of a global summit in Hamburg, Germany.
Of the agreement, he said, “I think this is our first indication of the U.S. and Russia being able to work together in Syria.”
From The Washington Examiner:
President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin sat down Friday for more than two hours at the G-20 summit in Hamburg, Germany, for their first face-to-face meeting since Trump took office.
“Putin and I have been discussing various things, and I think it has gone very well,” Trump said before their lengthy conversation began.
“We’ve had some very, very good talks. We’re going to have a talk now, and obviously, that will continue,” Trump said ahead of the meeting, which had been scheduled to last just 30 minutes. “But we look forward to a lot of very positive things happening for Russia, for the United States and for everybody concerned and it’s an honor to be with you.”
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson joined Trump for the closed-door meeting. Putin brought his foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, to the meeting as well.
Sadly, all the whiners on the LEFT can bitch about is the fact that Trump said it was an honor to meet Putin.
Trump, a Republican who called it an “honor” to meet with the Russian president, drew swift criticism from Democrats at home, who accused him of dismissing U.S. intelligence and giving Putin’s denial, reiterated on Friday, of Russian interference too much weight.

Gutfeld From The FIVE Comments on President Donald Trump’s Speech in Poland (VIDEO)
GUTFELD NAILS ANALYSIS OF TRUMP’S SPEECH …
Watch the video below, Greg Gutfeld from The FIVE absolutely nails the analysis on his take of President Donald Trump’s speech in Poland. His take on social progressives is spot on and the notion that the LEFT refuses to listen to the words of Donald Trump that make so much sense, because they cannot get past the fact that Trump is saying them. The LEFT called Trump’s speech an alt-right manifesto. Really? The battle for freedom against whether it be Nazi Germany, communist Russia or radical Islam is alt-right? Oh yeah, and the freedom and God thing just drove the LEFT crazy. And the LEFT wonders why they can’t win elections in the Unite States? Listen to the comments of poor Juan Williams. What a fool he has become.
What a novel concept, read the transcript of the speech without knowing who said it. Instead the Left provided ridiculous and negative comments. Many of whom probably never even listened to the speech. Or did so with their socialist, uber-lib filters.

Charles Krauthammer Says Trump’s Warsaw Speech was his Best and Reaganesque (VIDEO)
KRAUTHAMMER PRAISES TRUMP …
Syndicated columnist and Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer, an individual who is hardly pro-Trump, had nothing but praise for President Donald Trump’s speech in Poland. Krauthammer stated, Trump was praising The West, not just the United States. Krauthammer went on to say that Trump’s speech was one of the most anti-Russian speech since Ronald Reagan. Krauthammer went on to sy that Trump savaged Russia for their past actions against the Poles, the 40 years of Soviet occupation and present day. Thus dispelling the notion of Democrats and the LEFT that Trump is in bed with Putin and Russia. The images and words make that almost impossible to believe.
Sorry, the LEFT is going to have a hard time spinning this speech to the common sense people of the United States and the world.

President Trump’s Speech in Poland Was Hardly Soft on Russia (VIDEO)
REALLY, YOU THINK RUSSIA WANTED A TRUMP PRESIDENCY … DID YOU LISTEN TO THE SPEECH?
During President Donald Trump’s amazing speech in Poland yesterday, he brought up many issues and concerns for the West. Among them was a not so veil tongue lashing of Russia and Putin. A day ahead of President Trump’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin for the first time on the sidelines of the G20 summit, Trump put Putin on notice. Make no mistake about it, Trump’s comment that “Poland and its neighbors are never again held hostage to a single supplier of energy” was a direct slap at Russia.
While President Trump didn’t definitively agree Thursday with the assessment from the CIA, NSA, and FBI that Russia meddled in the 2016 presidential election, he and his administration have taken five aggressive steps against Russia.
- Commitment to NATO’s defense agreement
- The sale of the Patriot missile system to Poland (video 28:12)
- Urging Russia to end its “destabilizing activities in Ukraine and elsewhere”
- Sale of liquid natural gas to European nations (video 3:27)
- Scolding Russia after North Korea’s latest missile test

UPDATE I: Trump commits to NATO defense, slams Russian aggression
President Trump voiced a clear commitment Thursday to NATO’s “Article 5” principle of common defense, reassuring nervous Europeans who had worried about his support for the alliance.
Speaking to a huge crowd in Poland, Mr. Trump said Europeans should never question the U.S. commitment to NATO.
“The United States has demonstrated not merely with words but with its actions that we stand firmly behind Article 5,” Mr. Trump said in a speech to tens of thousands of cheering Poles. He had raised concerns in the spring when, during a visit to NATO headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, he neglected to mention Article 5.
But Mr. Trump reminded the audience in Poland, “Our defense is not just a commitment of money, it is a commitment of will.”
“The fundamental question of our time is whether the West has the will to survive,” Mr. Trump said in Krasinski Square in Warsaw. “Our own fight for the West does not begin on the battlefield — it begins with our minds, our wills, and our souls.”
