Trump: 'Sort Of' Ready to Send Tomahawks to Ukraine, NATO
NEWSMAX ^ | Oct 6, 2025 | Eric Mack

President Donald Trump said Monday he has "sort of" made a decision on whether to supply Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine or NATO allies but signaled caution, stressing he wants more information before proceeding.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said he intends to learn "what they're doing with them" before finalizing any decision, adding that his goal is to avoid escalating the conflict.

Washington is carefully weighing a significant step in military support as Kyiv continues its defense against Russia, but Trump's emphasis on oversight reflects concerns about how advanced U.S. weaponry might be used once transferred.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a video clip released Sunday that if Washington supplied Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine for long-range strikes deep into Russia, it would lead to the destruction of Moscow's relationship with Washington.

If someone sent me ten missiles with advanced technology that I did not have, I would set one aside to take apart in the hopes of figuring out how to make them myself.

What would our reaction be if another country indicated it would give weapons to an enemy capable of striking our big, blue cities?
>Oh, really? Like Portland? South Chicago? Interesting.

It won’t happen, no matter how much the Ukrainian Partisans hope it will.

Foolish. Very foolish... and wasteful. America has a domestic insurrection with some federal agencies under siege, the dollar is plummeting, gold is over 4000. New York is about to elect a communist moslem mayor. They government is in shutdown and he is still covering up for the Epstein-Israeli spy ring.

He needs to quit wasting money and fiddle-farting around with the Ukro-nazi project and focus on America. And very last on the list is giving Ukraine a missile we use in a nuclear attack role for them to shoot into Moscow.
A wise Russian would realize that accepting conventional Tomahawks is accepting that any single one of them could be a nuclear Pearl Harbor. We would never accept ANY Russian missiles of any type being fired into the USA, much less DC.

Its a statement for consideration, not an answer.

What do you think the question is?

If you are depending on American/NATO help, you follow the rules for their weapons.

Holy spirit guide President Trump, Angels watch over him as he labors each day. St Michael protect him from the sings and arrows of the ungodly. St. Mary grant him compassion and tenderness even for those who hate him. St. Joseph grant him fatherly love for his children and grand children. St. Serra give him the inner strength to finish his mission on this earthly plane and let the heavenly host welcome him to paradise with song and trumpets when his day is done on earth.

China probably already has the designs. After all, their guy was in the White House for years.
