...ten minutes of talking and 80 minutes of snoring interspersed with Putin saying, "Donny? Are you there?"

There's no way President [REDACTED] has the attention span to talk to Vlad for 90 minutes about anything--not even the bunkerroom.

Like his press conferences or his rallies, you know these calls follow some basic predictable script:
5 minutes of, "oh what a horrible thing [insert thing here] was."
5 minutes of, "my enemies are all to blame."
10 minutes of, "big strong people with tears in their eyes."
20 minutes of, "enough about you let's talk about me some more."
1 minute of, "okay, what have you been up to?"
20 minutes of snoring.
1 minute of, "yeah, yeah, I'm here...that's just awful."
20 more minutes of snoring.
5 minutes of, "let's talk again soon, the interior designers are here with something important to talk about."

Something like that.
