Former President Donald Trump slammed his former comrade Vladimir Putin for the growing death toll in Ukraine - calling it a 'massive crime against humanity' - and blasted NATO for its lack of action during a GOP donor event Saturday.
Trump spoke to Republican National Committee donors in Louisiana during the Spring Retreat in New Orleans, where he covered a wide variety of topics, including the escalating crisis in Ukraine.
Trump also went after NATO, calling it a 'paper tiger' and said the US cannot just stand by while Ukraine is invaded, according to Washington Post reporter Josh Dawsey, who obtained a recording of Trump's remarks.
Trump's comments come as Putin's forces have besieged Ukraine and sparked fears that NATO would be drawn into the fighting. Ukraine President Ukrainian President Volodymy Zelenzky has repeatedly begged NATO to enforce a no-fly zone over his country to help thwart Russian air superiority.
However, the US and its allies have resisted, fearing it could put NATO forces in direct conflict with Russia.
During his presidency, Trump had reportedly said multiple times that he wanted to pull the United States out of NATO, a move that aides scrambled to counter.
Speaking of the situation in Ukraine, Trump told donors that the US should put Chinese flags on America's F-22s and then 'bomb the s***' out of Russia, leading to conflict between the nations while 'we sit back and watch.'
He also shared his thoughts on North Korea dictator Kim Jong Un, saying that 'he's absolutely the leader of that country,' and expressed he was impressed at how Jong Un's advisers were 'sitting at attention' when he talked and 'cowered' when he spoke to them.
Trump said one general stood up so fast when spoken to and joked:' 'I want my people to act like

Are you forgetting Ez 39/39 in your 5D endtimes chess?
exactly
I parted with Trump on vaccines
I part with him on being sucked into a Deep State war
other than that
he was the best president of my lifetime
No, I just am not all that great at 5D chess. Just acknowledging there are a lot of moving pieces many either are not aware of or are ignoring.
With Israel basically in bed with Russia regarding Syria, what happens if Israel walks away from supporting Russia now or 6 months from now?
If Russia disallows/sanctions its airspace over Syria, this leave Israel with little options. Israel is trying to walk a tight-rope right now over this Ukraine conflict. She appears to lose either way.
Please do so on your dime. Leave the rest of to deal with problems of the inflation the wreckage wrought by the government generated Covid-19 disaster, and the elimo of y southern border.
I think the NATO inaction that is doing the worst harm is their continuing of keeping the Ukraine on as a NATO aspirant.
Ukraine as a NATO member has long been a stated contention of Russia, and either NATO or Ukraine removing that potential takes away that contention.
“The only thing most Americans have gotten so far is that gas prices have nearly doubled”.
Well, somebody has to fund Russian wars.
Another Romanov purge by the Left.
That tears it. Vaccines and now this? I have been hoping Trump would not be One Of Them but I cannot deny it anymore.
That is the point. What real difference will it make to the average middle class American if the Ukraine was forcibly rejoined to Russia. It is their problem. The US has many of it’s own.
LOL!
You need writing and thinking skills. Taking a Biblical prophecy and claiming “surrounding and crushing” means “culture canceling” is absurd. That is why it went right past me. Who in their right mind could connect the two concepts?
The prophets always warned in cataclysmic terms.
No nation’s culture can be canceled by another nation, except by war. As in the United States, our culture is being canceled/allowed by the illegitimate players inside the nation, not from the outside.
Great summation of how Trump treated NK and Putin
Too bad we have only one party and no elected officials are in place to confront the lies.
Ukraine is a rich prize for Putin. Ukraine has immense resources. Ilooked them up, and they’re at least “fourth in the world” in nearly everything—including the titanium used for Russian submarine hull construction.
Even now, Polish men are crossing the border to fight Russia. Last night, an American crossed the border for the same reason.
If I were to advise Trump, it would be to send Polish fighter-pilots over Ukraine, but only after removing Poland from NATO!
My my,this looks like it is turning into media driven a world war.
Saw that graph this morning. The right side is cut off here and not showing the latest increases by the current effects from this Ukraine debacle. Regardless, the predominance of the increases in $/gal since Biden’s installation is HIS fault and not from “Ukraine and Russia.”
I chalk this up to the old adage: If you can’t beat ‘em join ‘em
No Freepers are pro Putin. Most are anti Biden cause everything he does turns to sh@t.
He’s risking a nuke war protecting a corrupt government.
