Summary
Trump dismissed concerns about Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying Americans should focus on domestic issues instead.
His comments followed criticism from former national security adviser H.R. McMaster, who accused Trump of “coddling” Putin after berating Ukraine’s Zelensky.
Trump falsely claimed he was the only president who didn’t “give” Ukrainian land to Russia. European leaders, alarmed by his stance, are working on a ceasefire plan to present to him.
Meanwhile, the Kremlin praised Trump’s foreign policy, and GOP leaders increasingly support his approach to Russia.
They weren’t. Putin was having his ass kicked. NATO was at its strongest and keeping him at bay.
Now the world is worrying he might invade Europe.
