12. It's not just a meeting; it's a meeting on American soil.

This has the same significance as TACO's setting foot on North Korean soil. That gave Kim Jong Un the recognition he sought as a player in the world power structure.

The commonality is that in both meetings Trump got absolutely nothing in return for giving away what is a significant benefit.

It doesn't matter if it's Alaska or Mar-A-Lego. Putin should not get an invitation to our country until he ends the war and withdraws his troops from all Ukrainian lands, including Crimea.

BTW, there is a big push on in Russia to take Alaska back from the U.S., by force if necessary. If we're not careful, we might find ourselves having only 49 states after Friday's meeting. Trump might throw Alaska under the bus to end the war that Putin began.

Felon47 will do whatever it takes to get a Nobel Peace Prize.
