"Putin & I discussed forming an impenetrable Cyber Security unit so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded and safe"

Correct reply, Disembodied. That subject was not discussed. I would venture to say that nearly every utterance from him is a lie.

While they're developing that impenetrable cyber-security unit, they should also make an unclimbable wall, an unbreakable door, and a gun that only shoots bad people.

In an effort to be fair to the man:
The fact that President Putin and I discussed a Cyber Security unit doesn't mean I think it can happen.

Look up yonder, in the sky
Now what is that, I pray?

I think it likely Putin suggested this idea to Trump with a smirk on his face. I cannot say with certainty what was discussed. I'll leave that to more knowledgeable sources to unravel.

The US President and I have agreed to establish a working group and make joint efforts to monitor security in the cyberspace, ensure full compliance with international laws in this area, and to prevent interference in countries' internal affairs. Primarily this concerns Russia and the United States. We believe that if we succeed in organising this work – and I have no doubt that we will – there will be no more speculation over this matter.

After the referendum, the Brexiters were tasked with managing Brexit. This was like asking the winners of a debating contest to engineer a spaceship.

Maybe it's just me but could it be that all the people that did drugs in the 60's and 70's are now in power which is why everything's getting a bit batshit fucking crazy? Can't wait for the next 20 years, mullets and drugs will be compulsory.
Drugs I could handle, but mullets? The horror!
