    Nah. It’s not soccer where a two goal lead has been overcome once in 120 years.

    The only art that matters is the Art of the Deal.

    The United States does not have an extradition treaty with Russia (and about 85 other nations).

    So much for the "bound by oath of office" demands, OK?

    Many believe that Putin could do that, just to give Trump a "victory" he can strut about back home.

    No puppet:

    Then Trump added: "I’ve already increased defense spending, modernized our nuclear weapons...We can do more, so if you want to do an arms race you’ll lose."

    False. These are two separate issues. It's one thing to say the guy is wrongly imprisoned or worthy of parole. Maybe that's true. If that's the deal, Bannon could have said, "He shouldn't be in prison" at left it at that. But he didn't. He praised this cretin in general, saying he's the backbone of the country.
    In so doing, he launched a general defense of someone who has said several wretched but typically Trumpist things.
    Defending hatred of Islam is a Trumpist trait.
    I could only reasonably be called an apologist for rape of young girls if I claimed that Robinson was justly imprisoned and that all critics of his imprisonment are awful. That's not what I said or meant. I am criticizing your boy Bannon for a full-throated, general defense of Robinson.

    “He and I disagree about the religion of Islam, okay?” Bannon added. “But I don’t think Tommy’s a bad guy. I think he’s a solid guy, and I think he’s got to be released from prison.”

    Hey, these are the guys who aided Trump's campaign. Certainly he will bring it up in Helsinki.
