WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House said Wednesday that President Donald Trump's proposed Washington meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin had been delayed until 2019, citing the ongoing probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Putin had already sent signals that the White House meeting wasn't going to happen.

National security adviser John Bolton said in a statement that Trump believed his next meeting with Putin should take place "after the Russia witch hunt is over," a reference to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. Bolton said they agreed the meeting would be "after the first of the year."

The White House said last week that Trump had directed Bolton to invite Putin to visit Washington in the fall, moving quickly for a follow-up meeting amid the backlash over Trump's performance at a news conference with Putin following their Helsinki summit last week.

Many members of Congress had objected to the two leaders meeting again in the fall and said Putin would not be welcome on Capitol Hill.

The decision also came days after the White House rejected a Putin-backed effort to hold a referendum in eastern Ukraine on the region's future. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Wednesday, prior to the announcement, that the U.S. would never recognize Russia's annexation of Crimea and demanded that Ukraine's territorial integrity be restored.

Other signs had already emerged raising doubts about the second Trump-Putin summit. On Tuesday, Putin's foreign affairs adviser Yuri Ushakov threw cold water on the prospect of Putin accepting Trump's invitation to visit the White House.

Ushakov told journalists in Moscow that no preparations were underway for a meeting in Washington and there were "other options that our leaders could consider," such as the late November meeting of the Group of 20 in Argentina or another international event that both would attend.

Trump has long been seeking to bring Putin to Washington for a meeting. The president met with Putin on the sidelines of two international summits last year — first Germany, then Vietnam — and both times he invited his Russian counterpart to the White House, according to three current and former administration officials. He reiterated the invitation on a call with Putin in the spring.

Now the question is... what does this really mean?

Is this perhaps a reality check of a realization in the case of, " I will

stop this lunacy before you (Putin) do (does)?"

Or as many of us partial/bias observers and Putin has felt is that it  

was not going to happen so let's make it look like it was my(DJ)  

idea first, well thought out but radical decision?

Or might he again change his mind like he did with North Korea's 

Kim Jong Un? On again, off again, on again meet and greet?

Everyday is a new drama, isn't it here on our own personal reality 

TV station with this show called AMERICA, love it or Leave it!

Yes! We are on the world stage airing our dirty laundry daily, due 

to dotty ole Uncle Donny!

World please understand, he is just a member of our 300 plus

 million people that live here, and we attract all types.

And some believe since they have been here for too many 

generations that we can not deport them... case in point like our 

pres. DJ feels secure in that we cannot legally deport him.

Although, daily he does give us pause with a modicum of cause to 

consider that possibility more seriously! 

He knows that we can't.

Thus his pushing of the envelope.

Russia shouldn't worry either way really, since Uncle Donny  

never reports with any accuracy what actual transpires at any of  

his closed door meeting, excuse me, "summits".

No notes or transcripts are taken or allowed... hmmmm wonder 

why that is...NO I WAS KIDDING! We all know why... no paper 

trails or sound bites, oh wait that doesn't matter because even 

when there are many recordings, Pres DJ either doesn't recognize 

his own voice or just tells everyone it wasn't him!

Liar, liar, pants on fire... your nose is growing! 

Sorry, not dignified.

But sad and very true.

In closing, this all feels so familiar, again our Orange Frothy 

Haired Guy is at it once more.

As I said, like that he reminds me of that sad slightly off relative 

that none of us wants to admit has issues, although with him we 

must since he has way too much power and that makes him 

scary... 

 so with kid gloves, since ...

reasoning has not worked with his chosen people, in his ever 

changing cabinet try to advise him and he rarely listens so he fires 

them and onward he goes with his missteps that he consistently  

consistently refuses to learn from, even when his chosen minion 

explains to him why this or that is not right or true, or legal or in 

our constitution!

There is reading material for him to use and try to learn all about 

this country that he yells that he cares about!

GIVE THIS GUY SOME CHEAT SHEETS ON

 GOVERNMENT PROCESSES AND PROCEDURES AND

 PROTOCOLS, US LAW, AND TOSS IN A COPY OF THE  

UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION TOO!   

EXCELLENT READING MATERIAL!

The rant is done.

Happy good night all!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

PS Don't they make one of those booklets, condensed versions of 

"Government for Dummies"?

All the above nastiness written by me against the fellow who says

 he wants to make America Great, makes me angry because sofar 

he hasn't, but thinks he has.  FRUSTRATING!All above is solely 

my opinion, although I am pretty sure many agree!

AND NO, I DID NOT VOTE FOR HIM! And I am more than 

sure most did not either! RUSSIA DID!
