Doesn’t sound like #Trump triedtoo hard to dissuade #Putin.Trump said #Russia planned to retaliate against #Ukraine for its surprise attack over the weekend, after speaking to Putin on the phone for more than an hour on Wednesday.“President Putin did say, & very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields,” Trump posted on social media. He described it as a “good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace.”https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/04/us/politics/trump-putin-ukraine.html?smid=url-share

@Nonilex TACO has to keep his reputation. Giving Putin a free pass means that MAGA is an enemy of Europe. Full stop.

The post no longer appears on Trump’s social media account.#Trump did not say in the statement if he sought to discourage #Putin from attacking #Ukraine. The White House did not respond to a question inquiring if Trump pushed back against Putin. He rather expressed optimism over the prospect of working with Putin on another #ForeignPolicy priority: deterring #Iran’s #nuclear capabilities.#Russia #PutinsPuppet #TACO #geopolitics #TrumpIsWeak

The post broke a rare silence by #Trump on complex #InternationalAffairs. The statement was his first about Kyiv’s drone attack on airfields in #Russia, a stunning assault that hit #nuclear-capable bombers, revealing a significant vulnerability.In what amounted to a strategic & symbolic blow, #Ukraine hid drones across Russia before attacking airfields in 5 regions stretching across 5 time zones. The attack cost about $7 billion in damage.#PutinsPuppet #TACO #TrumpIsWeak #geopolitics

#Trump described the episode as if he were a bystander, & suggested that an aggressive Russian response was a fait accompli.Advisers say Trump is exasperated with both #Putin & President Volodymyr #Zelensky of #Ukraine. [because he’s a lazy megalomaniac who thought they’d just do whatever he said once he was back in office.]#Russia #PutinsPuppet #TACO #TrumpIsWeak #geopolitics

#Trump reserves special animosity, though, for the leader of the country that was invaded in the first place. Trump has told aides repeatedly that #Zelensky is a “bad guy” who is edging the world to the precipice of #nuclear #war [a war started by #Putin & #Russia]. But he has at other times told advisers that it is understandable that Zelensky is fighting back, given that he is in a war against an enemy who seems determined to keep bombing Ukrainian cities.#PutinsPuppet #TACO #TrumpIsWeak

#Trump tends to be more *deferential* to #Putin, although he has at times expressed disappointment. He previously seemed to think that what he described as his “very, very good relationship” with the Russian leader would bring a quick end to the #war. Trump has learned the hard way what the limits of American leverage are when he is unwilling to send #Ukraine more weapons & money. He has considered adding more #sanctions against #Russia, but has so far held off from doing so.#PutinsPuppet #TACO

#Trump has also refused to endorse a bipartisan #Senate bill, led by his #Republican ally Sen #LindseyGraham of SC, that would impose harsh economic penalties against #Russia.After calling #Putin “absolutely crazy” last month, Trump shifted his tone & said he wanted to give the Russian leader 2 weeks to show signs of progress. And now, he says he wants Putin’s help in securing a nuclear deal with Iran.#PutinsPuppet #TACO #TrumpIsWeak #geopolitics #Ukraine

“I stated to President #Putin that #Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon &, on this, I believe that we were in agreement,” #Trump said in his statement on Truth Social. “President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran & that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion.” [lots of equivocation in that statement]#PutinsPuppet #TACO #TrumpIsWeak #geopolitics #Ukraine #Russia

@Nonilex This is 3,240 hours after he promised he'd end that war within 24 hours.

@Nonilex trump is deferential and also obsequious to putin as his shocking inability to sanction Russia, or provide any aid to putin's adversary - Ukraine, best illustrates. He sanctions the entire world except for the country bombing Europe.
