"Leningrad"? WTF Is He Talking About?!

“Very unfair media is at work on my meeting with Putin,” Donald Trump said. So unfair, he wrote, that, “if I got Moscow and Leningrad free, as part of the deal with Russia, the Fake News would say that I made a bad deal!”

St. Petersburg hasn't been called Leningrad in more than three decades.

And Trump thinks he going to Russia when he's going to a USAF base in Alaska.

When will JD Vance meet with the Cabinet to discuss the 25th?

@Bumbles

There's an old joke about a Russian man being interviewed back in the 1980s.

Where were you born? "St. Petersburg."
Where did you grow up? "Petrograd."
Where do you live now? "Leningrad."
Where would you like to live? "St. Petersburg."

@beckyromero Haha!

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it, I can't say
You just liked it better that way

Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople

Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks
