Whose idea was it to have Lavrov in the White House yesterday?

On the very same day that Articles of Impeachment are introduced?

Does anyone doubt that Lavrov was representing Putin?

Trump bellows that he is the most "transparent" president ever! And we don't even know what they talked about?

We can continue to pretend to be ignorant or we can open our eyes and see what is in front of us.

Whose idea was it? Reportedly, it had been planned for quite some time?

What would they discuss?

Of course, you are totally right. PUtin is doing this to make clear that he is the one in charge, not drumpf. He is giving drumpf orders and documentation of fake information to use in the Senate trial showing Biden is a criminal or purporting to show that anyway. Of course it will be a total fabrication, but repugs don't care. They just want power and will destroy America for PUtin's benefit if he pays them sufficiently - which he is the richest man on earth.
