President Donald Trump revealed that he plans on holding a second summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in a series of Thursday morning tweets.
The Summit with Russia was a great success, except with the real enemy of the people, the Fake News Media. I look forward to our second meeting so that we can start implementing some of the many things discussed, including stopping terrorism, security for Israel, nuclear……..

….proliferation, cyber attacks, trade, Ukraine, Middle East peace, North Korea and more. There are many answers, some easy and some hard, to these problems…but they can ALL be solved!

Trump spent much of Thursday morning fuming about the coverage of his Monday summit with Putin during which he ignited a media firestorm after his press conference during which he appeared to give some credence to the Russian president’s claim that he did not interfere in the 2016 presidential election, despite being told the opposite by his intelligence community leaders.
Trump has blasted the U.S. media for focusing on the gaffe rather than the issues they discussed of great importance to global affairs.
The Fake News Media wants so badly to see a major confrontation with Russia, even a confrontation that could lead to war. They are pushing so recklessly hard and hate the fact that I’ll probably have a good relationship with Putin. We are doing MUCH better than any other country!
