I think this is the first time we’ve seen Trump mention the Ukrainian drone attack. And it sounds like he was quite sympathetic toward Putin and gave the green light for him to unleash hell in response. (The Ukrainian attack was a response to Putin’s non-stop bombing campaign but I’m sure Trump didn’t see it that way because “they don’t have the cards.”)
Weak, weak weak. He’s selling out Ukraine and now begging Vlad to help him out with Iran. I guess it was inevitable that Trump would make Russia into an official ally. I’m sure Vlad just sees it as yet another sucker play.
How pathetic.
Update —
Why does he need leverage? He and Vlad are best buds. I thought Russia would never have invaded if he had been president. Stands to reason they’d stop now that he is, doesn’t it? What’s wrong?
