Discussion: WaPo: Trump Considering Letting Russia Return To 2 US Diplomatic Compounds

I was not aware of the issue surrounding the St. Pete building.

Does this seem like a significant ask for us in exchange for allowing the Russians back into the compound, or just a sop to help the Trump team save face and deny that they totally caved?

Trick question? You’re a wily one!

They’re no longer asking for it. Russkies get the spy compounds back for free. That’s our dealmaker in chief, making those great deals.

Confirmed, sort of.

Unless he already has his end in some other form.

Putin has promised Donald that if he’s a good boy, he’ll get his very own ZIL.

You know the old saying
 “Keep your enemies close, but keep your Russian friends closer.”

Well we do have the legal paperwork on that one. And if, and this is a big pie in the sky if, surely a real estate developer would demand full compensation for the improvements made to the property and the return of the payment made at the time of purchase, with interest, and all in today’s value of currency.

Funny how donnie doesn’t believe that Russia did anything at all anymore. And they’re the greatest friends a guy could ever hope to have.

Geesh!

If they take it back, they have to take the Palins, too. Deal-breaker.

Not necessary. The White House is now a Russian diplomatic compound.

Beat me to it.

And not just Trump but Russia as well. But when it comes to Trump, he has no control over the story. It’s Russia that is actively wanting it known to the public – wanting it known that Trump is, indeed, their pawn, thereby getting what they want from Trump while at the same time weakening and delegitimizing Trump.

They seem to be playing their game.

Donald Trump is so considerate of others! It’s just terrible how this has inconvenienced their espionage operations.

“wanting it known that Trump is, indeed, their pawn, thereby getting what they want from Trump while at the same time weakening and delegitimizing Trump.”

Yes it’s laid out for the whole world to see as he destroys the NATO alliance, pulls out of the Paris Agreement, wrecks Obamacare. This is excruciating to watch. Truly excruciating.

Trump has been looking for a location for the “Eastern White House” and St. Petersburg fits the ticket! He can “work” there in the Summer when Palm Beach is sweltering.

That would be quite a trick. The entire Russian/North Korean border is less than 10 miles long, is largely roadless, and has only one railroad bridge. In short, nowhere to hide.

Both locations will be convenient for Jared to make calls from.
