Putin accuses Trump of 'emotional overload' after president called Russian dictator 'crazy'
Daily Mail ^ | 5/26/2025 | ELENA SALVONI and WILL STEWART

Russia has accused Donald Trump of falling victim to 'emotional overload' at a 'crucial moment' after the US President labelled Vladimir Putin 'absolutely crazy' for his brutal missile attacks on Ukraine.

When asked about Trump's explosive remarks, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov hit back but also thanked the President for helping to enable ceasefire talks.

'We are really grateful to the Americans and to President Trump personally for their assistance in organising and launching this negotiation process,' he said.

'Of course, at the same time, this is a very crucial moment, which is associated, of course, with the emotional overload of everyone absolutely and with emotional reactions,' he then added.

The reaction came following one of Moscow's biggest aerial attacks on Ukraine since the war began, with Russian forces bombarding civilian areas across the country, forcing NATO to scramble warplanes from Poland for the second night in a row.

The massive overnight attack saw Russia launch 355 drones - a new record high - as well as nine cruise missiles, according to the Ukrainian air force. Air raid alerts blared for six hours straight in Kyiv.

Trump should stop treating him as a legitimate negotiator.

It'll be interesting to see what Trump will do next, now that Putin is not interested in negotiating.

“The “massive” Russian attack killed a mere 12 people. About an average morning in Gaza. “

Chances are good that Chicago will match that this weekend.

A moreperfectunion doesn’t spam. He’s performing a public service by letting FReepers know when brain dead, leftest zeepers are posting threads so we can join in and get some laughs.

What marcus and umcrevmom do, (daily threads of nothing but UKE propaganda), is spam.

You’re not paying attention.

“Putain is a crazy bastard who wants to resurrect the evil empire.”

Link please, regarding the Evil Empire.

By the way, if Putin were a “crazy bastard” there would no longer be a FreeRepublic as the Neocons are basically warring against Russia.

“Trump calling Putin crazy indicates that he still does not understand the Russian leader. Putin does not think like us, does not share our values, does not value human life.”

True, Putin puts his country first.

The Russians have a volunteer fighting force in Ukraine and if wasting lives was a reality, there would not be 1.7m Russians under arms 3 years later in the “Western Meatgrinder” when Russia started with 540K around the world.

The Wall Street Journal had an article last year about the mentality of the families of those fighting and dying for Russia in Ukraine. You can find it here. A Russian from the hinterlands who fights for a year and is then killed can have his family promised a payment of $150,000. The situation implied in the article, but not explicitly stated, is that the surviving family is actually happy about the outcome. Of course, the families are not going to give a quote to the WSJ saying just that, so one has to infer their motivations. The WSJ calls it the "deathonomics" of the war.

Yup. THey need the US to fight and die for them. They plan to use the US the same way they used Ukraine to get WWIII going. They have let their military atrophy for a reason - it's America that must shed blood for NATO's aspirations. I see one of the NATO nations eagerly lifted weapons restrictions on shipments to Ukraine. They are really getting excited now. WAR! WAR! WAR!

“Putin puts his country first.”

Yuhp, that is why he has plundered and looted his country and used its sons as cannon fodder. That is very patriotic!

this is all performative theater from trump. he understands very well what is going on.

trump has to deal with a large faction in the US that will happily go to war with russia. reportedly congress could pass veto-proof sanctions now.

Patton was right Trump should stop treating him as a legitimate negotiator. Impose the strictest sanctions on him and pour as much military equipment into Ukraine as possible.

Wow! I had no idea that Patton said all of that before he died in 1945.

What's crazy is not expecting Putin and Russia to do what is necessary to win the war.

Russia has been absolutely consistent about what it will take to end the war peacefully.

Trump hasn’t been in a good mood since he lost to Yemen.
