JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska (AP) — First came the red carpet, then the warm handshakes, friendly smiles and military planes flying overhead.

Finally, President Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin climbed into the back seat of Trump’s presidential limousine, casually chatting like reunited friends as they were whisked away to talks about the future of the Russia-Ukraine war.

This all sounds like Putin slid an envelope across to Trump, and after Trump looked at the pictures inside, Putin asked..."Do we understand each other now, Donald? Good."

And then the meeting was over.
