Wondering why the Russian media released Melania pics

Probably just Putin’s way of saying he considers that Trump is a person of low morals and little culture and is therefore not about to show any particular deference or respect towards him personally or his Office.

On the other hand, this is as good as any analysis I have seen on the matter:

Remember, this is Trump. He’ll probably put the pictures in his Christmas Cards with a handwritten “I sleep with her…”

Putin’s run out of steam if this is the best he has. I have wondered if he wants to provoke a wider war in order to reap financial benefit from the west for peace.

[Renauda]

@Mik

I don’t see how Putin can reap financial benefit from widening the conflict. It’s not like Russia will ever be the one owed reparations.

He has decided to antagonise Trump. Putin has a mob boss mentality and right now he’s behaving more like “Crazy Joe” Gallo than Carlo Gambino.

[Mik]

Probably not, but he hasn’t proven himself to be a master strategist internationally anyway. Incorrect assumptions could well guide him.

I suppose Trump could post pics of Putin's wife in a mass grave outside a gulag in Siberia.

[Renauda]

@Tom-K

He’s divorced. He wouldn’t care.

[Tom-K]

His ex-wife is dead in a ditch. Americans are a little softhearted about such things.

[Renauda]

But she’s remarried and very much alive in St. Petersburg (no, not the St. Petersburg in Florida).

Thank you. I was going to ask, but being the gentleman I am, I refrained. Now that you've made the request...LET'S SEE 'EM!

[Renauda]

Here is a link with at least some footage from Russian TV program in question. You’ll get the drift. Nothing explicit:

I do not place much credence, if at all any, in the slick coffee and donut shop gossip beyond the Russian clip in the first minute or so.

@Renauda post in other thread deleted, if that's OK with you.

[Renauda]

@George-K

Fine with me. It was the wrong link anyhow.

Which thread did I post it in?

Multitasking while preparing dinner. Not recommended.

Have we ever officially determined whether Jon would hit that? I mean, obviously he would have if there was no Trump affiliation, but with the Trump affiliation, would Jon be able to stomach going where DJT went?

I don't think Jon can reach that far. Maybe if an elephant stepped on his ass...
