Former National Security Council Ukraine expert Alexander Vindman called President Trump Russian President Vladimir Putins useful idiot in a new interview.
President Trump should be considered to be a useful idiot and a fellow traveler, which makes him an unwitting agent of Putin, Vindman told The Atlantic's editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg.
They may or may not have dirt on him, but they dont have to use it, he said when asked if the Kremlin has material to blackmail Trump. They have more effective and less risky ways to employ him. He has aspirations to be the kind of leader that Putin is, and so he admires him. He likes authoritarian strongmen who act with impunity, without checks and balances. So hell try to please Putin.
Vindman gained a national profile with his testimony against the president in the Houses impeachment inquiry last year. He retired from the military this July, saying a retaliatory campaign by the president had stalled his promotion to the rank of colonel. White House communications director Alyssa Farah, however, has called the allegation that Vindman was the victim of retaliation ridiculous and false, although Trump has tweeted that he was very insubordinate.
The president destroyed my Army career, Vindman told Goldberg in the interview published Monday. Im not crying over spilled milk. I have other things to do.
The Atlantic interview marks Vindmans first public remarks against Trump since the impeachment hearings.

Irrational hatred of Russia cause he’s Ukrainian?
Possibly, and he’s probably linked to the corrupt prior Ukrainian regime that was paying off Biden vis a vis the idiot son, Hunter. That regime the Demonrats tried to overthrow Pres. Trump for wanting to investigate. All ties together.
Lardy Boys are both useless idiots.
Vindman never assimilated. He is still a Russian at heart, born in Ukraine and raised in Little Odessa, NYC. Now he can become a lobbyist for Ukraine or Russia. He is not on our side.
Like I said ....
I do not give a RIP if he served in our Army . They should have never let the prick enlist .
And so was his brother. I have always thought him to be an irritating spy.
ALL Freepers should watch AMAZING POLLY’s Podcast about Vindman, Yovanivich and many others!!! Vindman is as dirty as can be! The entire FAMILY is DIRTY!
The SOVIET born Vindman is a disgrace to the US military uniform. It is though he is trying to get a court-martial. He is trying to take one for the motherland to show that Trump is a despot. If only President Trump and the military would take his bait and go after him. I say after the election give him his court-martial and dismiss him from the US Army.
in AMAZING POLLY’s Podcast, she has pictures of the twins about 6 years old in a KEN BURNS film! She has TONS of info on the family....DIRTY FATHER, other brother and the twins have a very strange past! WATCH THE VIDEO!
He is out of the Army.
Vindman is an idiot. He retired from the military after going out side of his chain of command. The problem is with his fat lipped mouth he can get court martialed as a retiree for things said as a retiree. It is insubordination The Supreme Court ruled retirees can be court martialed for things done AFTER retirement!
Vindman "retired" from the Army. He is not OUT of the Army as he is drawing his retirement and is still subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. He is a SOVIET born hack who has posed as a United States military officer. He blew his cover when he went after the Commander in Chief. He can and should be court-martialed for his actions. He can be dismissed from the Army due to his acts of treason against the Commander in Chief.
LTC Rolly Polly should re-read Article 88, UCMJ.
Your right poor choice of words on my part.
The chances of anything(in the legal realm) happening to Vindman are slim and none. So he skates.

He is in violation of the UCMJ. Why hasn’t he been prosecuted?

Is there ANY EVIDENCE that Putin has benefitted from the Trump Admins policies??? If not, Trump should just say PROVE IT!.
