President Donald Trump was upset about a propaganda video released by Russian President Vladimir Putin in March showing off the countrys invincible new nuclear-powered missile capable of hitting anywhere in the world, Axios reports ahead of the leaders summit.
Animation used in the video showed a missile striking Florida, specifically near Trumps Mar-a-Lago resort in West Palm Beach. Trump at the time didnt react to the video, and Putin said he wasnt trying to ignite a new Cold War.
But, clearly he wanted us to see that, former CIA and NSA Director Michael Hayden told CNN in March.
This really feels like Kim Jong Un rhetoric and stage craft here, he added. Theres no logic to explain Trumps silence on the video, said Hayden, and I dont know what created the dynamic but we saw it during the campaign. It may just be at a point where its a thing for him now that in order for him to say something about Putin now would be implicit admission that he shouldve been saying other things and he just wont do it.

Isn’t this Hayden guy a rabid anti-Trumper? He was/is the Deep State so put your money on the opposite of anything he says!
Yeah, this has to be the gospel truth.
. ...to my recollection, the fact that the Russkies or China could hit Mara Lago, or the White House, with a nuclear missile from far away has been around for decades.
Depending on who’s president it could be suicidal though.
The USAF has 400+ working MIRV ICBMs. Plus the Navy birds.
Working and proven.
No cartoons other that Donald Duck...which has nothing to do with ICBMs.
I wish I had a “nuclear-powered missile”.

If you believe the lying media (even Newsmax) Trump would be running around screaming and raving in a rage half the time. Of course nothing in the real world says that is true. But count the number of stories that start with Trump being in a rage, furious, upset, angry, etc..it’s well over half of those published.
Must be a sticky on the Journa-List group home page.
the fact that the Russkies or China could hit Mara Lago,
........................................................
they would never hit MaraLago if they used this writer’s information. MaraLago is NOT in West Palm Beach! MaraLago, the former home of Marjorie Merriweather Post is a property that runs from the ocean to the lake in PALM BEACH!
So, the Russkies can nuke Mar-a-Lago. BFD!!
I can absolutely guarantee that both the Soviet Union and Russia have, do and will continue to target not only multiple National Command targets in the Washington, DC area, but also any location that the then-current POTUS is likely to be (such as a summer home or frequently-visited vacation spot). Hell, I’d bet that they have at least 1/2 dozen land- and sea-based missiles that get re-programmed on a daily basis, depending on where the President either is, or is thought to be.
Guaranteed, also, that we do/did/will do the same to Russia/the USSR. Oh, and both of us do it to the Chinese, too.
Any nuclear nation that DOESN’T play the “decapitate the enemy leader ASAP” game well is not serious about preserving itself.
