I have now watched two presidents meet face to face with Putin
Admittedly this is only the 1st for Biden
But a pattern seems to emerge
Media accounts tell us how bad Putin is and I imagine he must have done some thing to deserve the sanctions
But both Presidents will not say that Putin is bad or has expectations of nation building etc
He projects an image of defending Russia but not wanting to expand on their territory
The media goes into, sort of a a hock mode, if the USA president will not bad mouth Putin
You saw it at the end of the presser with CNN. Biden will not say any thing bad about Putin.
When Trump did the same, the media portrayed this as Trump being "Putin's stooge" etc
Now I am not here to defend Putin and say he is perfect in our eyes. But we could have a much worse Russian leader
It seems the media wants us to believe Putin is evil and the reason for almost everything bad that has happened to us
Well From what I see, Putin may not be perfect, but for Russia he is doing his job
If the media would stop stirring the pot I think we could find a lot to agree about with Russia
The cold war is history and we, plus the media need to remember that fact.
We need to move on and build on common ground
Thanks Wayne!
