With Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin huddling Wednesday in Geneva it's worth remembering a similar summit between Putin and Donald Trump in 2018 -- one of the lowest points of a presidency absolutely stuffed with them.
The two presidents met in Helsinki on July 16, 2018 -- a meeting that came amid special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The central issue was whether Trump would confront Putin about Russia's involvement in a US presidential election. That, um, didn't happen. In a joint news conference after their meeting, Trump not only refused to condemn Russian interference but seemed to side with Putin and against his own intelligence community.
Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins.
