Trump calling Putin “crazy” is a welcome shift in rhetoric.

But at the same time, he blames Zelenskyy — though it’s unclear for what exactly. Standing up to a full-scale invasion?

We’ll soon see if Trump is finally ready to do something to stop the “crazy Putin.” Or if it’s just more talk.

Here is his full post on Truth Social:

“I’ve always had a very good relationship with Vladimir Putin of Russia, but something has happened to him. He has gone absolutely CRAZY! He is needlessly killing a lot of people, and I’m not just talking about soldiers. Missiles and drones are being shot into Cities in Ukraine, for no reason whatsoever. I’ve always said that he wants ALL of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that’s proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia! Likewise, President Zelenskyy is doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don’t like it, and it better stop. This is a War that would never have started if I were President. This is Zelenskyy’s, Putin’s, and Biden’s War, not “Trump’s,” I am only helping to put out the big and ugly fires, that have been started through Gross Incompetence and Hatred.”

The anti-Ukrainian and pro-russian stance of the U.S. administration comes as no surprise.

Just look at this post from the Pentagon’s press secretary, Kingsley Wilson. She openly states that she is “proud to be an enemy of globalist Ukraine.” On top of that, she has repeatedly expressed sympathy for Vladimir Putin and criticized U.S. military aid to Ukraine.

Please don’t harbor any illusions about Trump and his current administration.

Trump has surrounded himself with a pro-russian, anti-Ukrainian circle. Among them is Tulsi Gabbard — a known russian sympathizer who has spread conspiracy theories about U.S. biolabs in Ukraine and blamed NATO for russia’s invasion.

Then there’s Kashyap Patel, Trump’s appointed FBI director, who received $25,000 from a russian film company that promotes pro-russian and anti-Western narratives.

And of course, Elon Musk, who consistently echoes russian propaganda and anti-Ukrainian rhetoric.

In this context, Trump’s own anti-Ukrainian, pro-russian stance is exactly what you’d expect.

Republican Congressman Don Bacon:

“It is a time for honesty. Peace talks are having zero effect on Putin. His goal is to dominate Ukraine & he won’t stop until he realizes he cannot win. The U.S. & Allies must arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction Russia to the max, & confiscate the $30OB in overseas Russian assets.”
