In public, Trump was pretty pleasant to the leaders of America’s enemies. But that’s in public. In private, he kicked them bloody. Trump tightened the leash so hard on Kim, famines ensued. He was seizing ships at periodic intervals. Biden loosened those sanctions by ending that program. And lo - flush with cash, Kim started testing new missiles again.
Trump ramped up sanctions on Russia. He exited worthless missile and Open Skies treaties that Putin did not live up to, that Biden wants to revive. He struck Russian ground troops for the first time in a century*, killing 200 of them, something even Trump-hating Newsweek acknowledges.
Trump’s relationship with the leaders of America’s enemies is a lot like domestic abuse - pleasant in public appearances together and serious beatdowns in private. That is why Kim and Putin respected Trump - his pimp hand kept them docile.
* The last time a president ordered US troops into action against Russian grunts was just after the Bolshevik Revolution. Woodrow Wilson sent the Polar Bears to help the Whites against the Reds.
Uh oh...looks like Trump is for intervention in Ukraine. I wonder what the freepers who were proPutin because they thought Trump was proPutin are going to say now?
There are 1000’s of misplaced children, Many orphans. I would be honored to adopt or become a guardian for up to 20. After that, cost of food would be more than I could afford
So many low IQ types thought Trump sided with Putin. He thinks for himself, and is not manipulated into choosing a side by who else chooses or not chooses it.
The entire “article” is so slanted I can’t tell exactly what Trump said. Going to look for video of his comments now.
Right again!
Trump knew how to deal with adversaries - praise them in public and put them on leash in private.
Unlike this present crowd, which trashes adversaries in public, but is being put on leash by them in private!
Yes, Ukraine is where to draw a red line, if we want to stop Putin from taking over the Europe.
Ukraine is not a small useless country in Russian orbit, but a European front line against Russia.
There is no army in Europe bigger and more willing to fight that the Ukrainian army.
It’s harder when you are actually in office. He no doubt understands that as well.
Russia will defeat itself in time stay out!
Double Bingo !
The Ukrainian people are to be subordinate commodities, like any other commodity-
Trump is hilarious...
Given the chance, he’d bomb both Putin and NATO.
/s
However, the US and its allies have resisted, fearing it could put NATO forces in direct conflict with Russia.

Why are we afraid of Russians?
They are paper tigers!
This is from the DM.
Trust but verify.
Especially the Trump quotes.
I will vehemently oppose ANY politician who advocates getting the U.S. involved in a land war in Russia. And that includes Donald Trump.
Trump’s wrong. We don’t need combat in Ukraine.
“Trump told donors that the US should put Chinese flags on America’s F-22s and then ‘bomb the s***’ out of Russia, leading to conflict between the nations while ‘we sit back and watch.’” -— I hope he did not say that. It is idiotic.
Killed 200 Russian mercenaries.
If his “ We’ll take the oil, we’ll take the oil” and our invasion of Sovereign Secular Syria, our terrorist training camp in Al-Tanf showed great foreign policy...
SMH, and thinking STFU.
Trump talks big in public but is a lot more reasonable when dealing with dictators. He said he would bomb North Korea too but seemingly made some advancements in peace talks with that country.
If Trump really wanted to get involved militarily with Ukraine than I’d probably not vote for him in 2024 (though it will be too late at that point anyway).
Should I trust Daily Mail’s reporting?
Sure easy to find fake freepers when Russia is involved with anything.
I disagree with him on this one. We have no alliance treaty with Ukraine and no vital national interest there. This is not our fight. To get involved militarily with a nuclear armed state over something that is not vital to us would be extremely reckless.
Biden is President, and he’s asleep in Delaware. Let’s focus on him, not Trump.
