  She sat at a table with Putin once, so what? Many US and European politicians have met him and sat with him at various summits over the years. I can find an image of Biden shaking Putin’s hand and smiling. Shock!

  Utterly meaningless nonsense.

    Here’s the context: she has never been important. She has never held political power at any level. She is not a politician. She’s a nobody who keeps failing to be elected only to the highest office on the planet. She isn’t an almost-Hillary, she’s a barely-not-Vermin-Supreme.

    Nobody, absolutely nobody gets seated at the same table as Putin without a damn good reason. Look who sits at his right hand; American traitor general and conspirator Micheal Flynn. The only way she got a seat with Putin’s entourage is if she gave him something for it. What did she give? Well, she siphoned votes away from Hillary at the last minute.

    Do you really think Putin only funds conservatives? No, he pits factions against each other. He doesn’t care which of them wins so long as his enemy is divided and weakened.

      You said it yourself, nobody gets seated at the same table as Putin without a good reason. So what is the context? When was this photo taken, where was it, and what was the event?

        What? Internet’s right in front of you and you’re unwilling to make the effort to discredit me?

      Funny, that’s what I call people who parrot Democrat propaganda.

      Maybe so. On the other hand, would a useful idiot get a seat at that table?

        you would be surprised at how far a useful idiot would go for you, all for a seat at a table and a pat on the head.

        Hell, look at what Trumps done for Russia with regard towards destroying our democracy and destabilizing our country, all because Putin gave him a few puffed up words of fake praise.

        Yes? Idiots are even easier to control than people you are blackmailing or paying off.
