“President Trump sucking up to Vladamir Putin after the summit in Helsinki yesterday was such an unbelievable, indelible moment that many deflated White House officials didn’t even bother to defend or explain it,” is the lead sentence of this morning’s @axios report.
“Anchors and commentators, who already had become loose with their language, became untethered from journalistic norms, just as Trump had abandoned presidential norms. On CNN, Anderson Cooper called the performance ‘disgraceful’ and Chris Cuomo called it ‘a betrayal,” it notes.
And here’s the imagery @axios (closely read by the inside-the-Beltway set) has accompanying its morning report about the fallout from the #TrumpPutinSummit.

[THREAD] There's a LOT of updates today around the #TrumpPutinSummit and the #MuellerInvestigation. Here's what you need to know:
Trump’s disgraceful and disloyal press conference today shows that he is a danger to us all, and that he is clearly acting on behalf of Russian, and not American, interests. Instead of confronting Putin’s threats to our democracy, he instead attacked the Russia investigation.
Putin suggested 𝙍𝙪𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙖 should join the investigation, & it should be expanded to investigate U.S. citizens. Trump should have put a stop to that idea immediately - instead he agreed it was a good idea. He had a choice between Americans and Putin, and he chose Putin. Again.

"If Trump was this compliant with Putin in public, as we all saw during that press conference, one shudders to think what his posture and disposition was toward Putin in private." — @ColinKahl on today's #TrumpPutinSummit ⬇️
What we witnessed today in Helsinki was, indeed, disgraceful. But it was also dangerous—as Trump essentially just gave Putin the green light to continue his attacks on our democracy. #TrumpPutinSummit
Trump’s Republican allies are enabling his dereliction of duty in protecting America and his willingness to play Putin's puppet. It's time for them to stand up for America—as the American president clearly won't. #TrumpPutinSummit

A number of US lawmakers across the aisle quickly criticizing @POTUS remarks in Helsinki, as well as former top level American intelligence officials and diplomats.
#TrumpPutinSummit "news conference was one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory," says @SenJohnMcCain.
"The damage inflicted by President Trump’s naiveté, egotism, false equivalence, and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate. But it is clear that the summit in Helsinki was a tragic mistake," adds @SenJohnMcCain in statement.

#Putin starts with rare words in English to "Donald": Ok, Shall we start? Then says a new era of cooperation is at hand. "There's no reason US-Russia relations should be complicated. On 'so-called' interference, the Russian state has never interfered in US election & never will"
Trump just slammed "obstructive" Democrats and the press in prepared remarks at press conference with Putin at #HelsinkiSummit
Q: This morning you blamed the US. Do you blame Russia for anything?
Trump: Yes, I blame both countries. Mueller probe is ridiculous. There was no collusion. There was nobody to collude w.

So Trump uses false equivalence to let Russia off the hook for attacking his own country😡

THREAD: 6 months ago today I released the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's #RussiaReport documenting the strategies Vladimir Putin has used to undermine democracy, human rights and the rule of law in Russia and Europe for the past 20 years.
Because to prevent what he did in our 2016 election from happening again, we need to understand Putin's patterns and methods. The Kremlin uses an arsenal of tools to destabilize democracies and sow chaos: cyber attacks, propaganda, coups, corruption, assassinations and more.
Putin has increasingly crossed the line of acceptable behavior – and we need a @POTUS who is resolute on American values, our transatlantic alliances and international norms to stand up to him. #RussiaReport
