Nicolle Wallace stated that Donald Trump displayed a lack of control in his meeting with Vladimir Putin, emphasizing Putin's dominance. Wallace described the unusual protocol of their greeting, where Trump appeared subservient, waiting for Putin like a middle schooler on a date. Such formalities, including the red carpet and joint ascent onto a platform, are exceedingly rare in diplomatic encounters. During the press conference, Trump acknowledged that a ceasefire deal in Ukraine was not finalized, although he expressed hope for future negotiations.
Clearly, Trump was not in control of anything; Putin was the alpha all day long, from Trump holding on his plane and waiting for him..."
It is very rare to have a red carpet, and then an ascent to a platform, and then a walk down the stairs into a limo together."
