THREAD: Analysis of Helsinki meeting
1/5
Some know of my background in MI. I have contacts who continued in IC careers. We’ve had some convos. This is distillation of our info/analysis:
1st, Putin is probably amazed at what Mueller knows, & mad at GRU abt how FBI could get it.

Putin will have started meeting by emphasizing that he has been Russian leader for 20 yrs, head of KGB for decade, intel officer since teenager. “I’m a HOF’er, you’re a rookie!”
Trump looked AWFUL after meeting, beat up! Putin put him in his place.

Putin will have reminded Trump that Russian cyber intrusion, info warfare were Trump’s idea: publicly asking Russia to find Hillary’s emails, family met Putin folks for dirt, Stone asking about dirt, & all the things “I’ve done for you over the years” & could reveal.

Putin may have told Donny he will help with cyber attacks during midterms OR that Trump is now on his own – Putin can’t afford to destroy all his own credibility. But Putin managed to establish total dominance over what he now KNOWS is a cognitively impaired asset.

Trump got a photo op and a soccer ball, and was spanked by a KGB professional. But, perhaps surprisingly, he didn’t look like he enjoyed the spanking.
