Mary Trump - Donald's Handler Makes Him Angry

Donald said in a call yesterday with NBC News that he was “very angry” and “pissed off” after Vladimir Putin questioned the credibility of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s leadership. Donald claimed that Putin’s comments were “not going in the right location,” by which I think he means they are not helpful in the context of the so-called peace negotiations. Donald seems to forget that he himself has called Zelensky a dictator.

Donald said further:

If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine, and if I think it was Russia’s fault — which it might not be — but if I think it was Russia’s fault, I am going to put secondary tariffs on oil, on all oil coming out of Russia. That would be that if you buy oil from Russia, you can’t do business in the United States. There will be a 25% tariff on all oil, a 25- to 50-point tariff on all oil.


-snip-

I think two things are potentially going on at the same time. First, if you’ll remember, Donald said that on day one of the transition—that is, the day after the November 5th election—he was going to end the war in Ukraine. Of course, that would have been illegal and impossible, but that’s what he promised. And that did not happen.

By refusing to agree to his so-called ceasefire (which, again, almost entirely redounds to Russia’s benefit), Putin is making Donald look bad.

.... as a fresh roll of toiletpaper soaking in a 5 gallon bucket full of piss. A mush mess that is only capable of falling apart and disintegrating.
