Burns, the author of a new book, talks with Brian Williams about this new era of diplomacy.

Ras Smith says:

Screw them both. Dont forget McCarthyisme. And remember that trump couldnt build his buildings and his empire without the help of maffia concrete.

Mazepa - Slava Ukrayini says:

Смерть московським мавпам. WE guarantee it.

Prae says:

I fail to understand why some people still talk about Russia as if it were still part of the Soviet Union. Some people refuse to improve relations with Russia and prefer to call Trump weak for attempting do so. I believe we need to realize that it is our own doing to why tensions might be higher now than it has been in a while.

N S says:

Trump puts Putin above US intelligence agencies with the world as witness at Helsinki. Trump is a treasonous coward.

Christos Antonopoulos says:

So Mr. Putin why is it you and your allies like china have such a low rate of dementia in your continents? what is it you are doing that is so right to prevent this disease?

Ronics Ellis says:

TELL VADIR PUTIN, I AND THANK FULL. YES, I DID LIKE SND WAS ONLY GOING TO LISTEN AND MOST DEFINITELY GOING TO LISTEN AND LEARN WITHOUT DOUBT. THANK YOU TEACHER AND WILL MOST CERTAINLY LEARN 100%.

Robert Atwell says:

Hey all you hypocrites you remember that one time Hillary gave Russia the reset button but that was ok that was so cool when a Democrat gave a peace offering to Russia and knowing what we know now she would have had to take back her reset button from Russia because it's pretty obvious the Russians took that reset button Hillary gave him and threw it down the toilet so what a waste of time on Hillary and the Democrats part right right right of course I'm right because it was okay when your god did it

Ft Peck Rez Azure says:

I bet that soccer ball that Putin gave Trump is wired. Dum-Dum Trump probably has it sitting in his office. It probably has a communication device where Trump gets his orders.

S Baumann says:

It's seen as a weakness in the US, too!

d d says:

The tagline is misleading. Trump did not show " kindness" He showed deference and subservience.

Aqua Man says:

Pro war propaganda by George soros funded neo nazis. Thumbs down.

Keith Riley says:

Everyone Knows Trump is weak. Spineless, groveler, thin-skinned, insecure, racist piece of sh*t. This is old news.

The Wedge says:

Putin is a politcal genius. We can only dream of a president like him here 🙁
