CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JUNE 18, 2021
THE MEETING – NOT A SUMMIT AS THE MEDIA CALLED IT – THE MEETING BETWEEN PRESIDENTS BIDEN AND PUTIN AMOUNTED TO NOTHING. THE MEDIA HYPED IT LIKE THEY DO BAD WEATHER THAT NEVER MATERIALIZES. BIDEN GOT NOTHING FROM PUTIN. PUTIN GOT A LIST FROM BIDEN OF SIXTEEN CITES HE SAID PUTIN HAD BETTER NOT HACK.
BUT PUTIN SAYS HE’S NOT GUILTY OF HACKING AND DOESN’T KNOW ANYONE WHO HACKS. PUTIN CLAIMED HACKERS ARE INSIDE THE U.S. AND THEY ARE THE GUILTY ONES.
INSTEAD OF HOLDING A JOINT NEWS CONFERENCE, THEY HELD SEPARATE ONES, ALLOWING PUTIN TO HAVE THE STAGE TO HIMSELF AND SPEW 55 MINUTES OF LIES. WHEN IT WAS BIDEN’S TURN, AB0UT ALL HE GOT WAS A PRETTY BACKGROUND AND BETTER FLAG PLACEMENT. HE SPENT ABOUT 15 MINUTES TALKING TO PRE-SELECTED REPORTERS, STRUGGLED TO READ A TELEPROMPTER AND AGAIN SLURRED HIS WORDS AND USED WORDS IN SENTENCES THAT MADE NO SENSE. THEN HE TOOK OF HIS COAT BECAUSE HE SAID HE WAS HOT. HE LASHED OUT AT A REPORTER, TELLING HER SHE WAS IN THE WRONG BUSINESS BECAUSE OF HER QUESTION.
MAYBE HE’S IN THE WRONG BUSINESS, ONE COMMENTATOR SAID. IT WAS AN EMBARRASSMENT. I’M CAL THOMAS.
