In NBC’s Monday morning Special Report in the 9:00 a.m. Eastern hour on the Trump-Putin summit, the peacock network had already broken the panic button from hitting it too many times, blasting the President for praising the Russian-hosted World Cup, giving him “the upper hand,” sending out “such a damaging tweet” on the Mueller probe, and insinuated that he’s doing the bidding of Russia and the former Soviet Union by criticizing the news media.

NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt observed that, last week, Trump “left behind...a trail of disappointment and bewilderment among Europeans, capping it off with that parting shot yesterday that the E.U. is a foe,” so they will “be watching carefully to see if this president has cozied up — is treating — is treating Putin in a way he is not treating them any longer.”
