'This is a massive crime against humanity': Trump says we 'can't let' the situation in Ukraine continue and slams 'paper tiger' NATO for its inaction

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

Folks really need to trust but verify.

Case in point...

Fox News & Newsmax Took Biden Money To Push Deadly COVID Vaccines To Its Viewers Corporate news outlets did not disclose the money they took to push dangerous drugs to their conservative audience

Or are we to believe that the same people who've been lying about Spygate, The Steal, and CoupFlu all these years (the DM included) are suddenly telling us the truth about Russia/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.’” -— I hope he did not say that. It is idiotic.

Heck, by simply surviving despite a ramshackle inventory and nugatory budgets, the Ukrainian Air Force has shown the essential unreadiness of the Russian Air Force, which has 10x the aircraft.

Then why the need for a no-fly zone at all?

Paper tigers…with the world’s largest nuclear arsenal.

It sounds exactly like the simplistic and childish thing Trump would say to a bunch of people with deep pockets who wanted to hear that. I can almost hear the Loony Tunes soundtrack playing in the background while he was speaking.

I’d put it right up there with the epic “I’ll have Bowe Bergdahl dropped out of a plane from 30,000 feet on day one of my presidency if I’m elected” quote from the 2016 campaign.

A no-fly zone in Ukraine is pure force-on-force. People flying Russian military helicopters and airplanes cannot reasonably be called civilians. In force-on-force encounters, we can clean Russian clocks.

But it’s rarely ever that “neat”, so to speak. Mistakes develop, intentions are misinterpreted, blue-on-blue fires occur.

The law of unintended consequences comes into play.

Killed 200 Russian mercenaries.
If his “ We’ll take the oil, we’ll take the oil” and our invasion of Sovereign Secular Syria, our terrorist training camp in Al-Tanf showed great foreign policy...

SMH, and thinking STFU.

Trump talks big in public but is a lot more reasonable when dealing with dictators. He said he would bomb North Korea too but seemingly made some advancements in peace talks with that country.
If Trump really wanted to get involved militarily with Ukraine than I’d probably not vote for him in 2024 (though it will be too late at that point anyway).

*** The only thing most Americans have gotten so far is that gas prices have nearly doubled. ***

Yep, and in not quite 2 weeks, price here in my small TX town has gone from $2.85 to $3.60 a gallon... Diesel is even worse. ouch!

As we’ve seen so many times it’s become tiresome, the only purpose of a no-fly zone is to establish a situation where mistakes WILL be made — or even deliberate “false flag” incidents WILL be staged — as a predicate for full U.S. military intervention.

I don’t know if it’s comical or sad to see Americans fall for this crap every time.

said, "The entire “article” is so slanted I can’t tell exactly what Trump said. Going to look for video of his comments now."

I can not find a video on this event. I'm in agreement with you. Typical media BS with no evidence of what he actually said.

They were one country for over 300 years until 30 years ago. That’s a civil war.

Mexico still wants the American Southwest that they had barely populated and they are stile trying to take it now with 2 million invaders in just the last year. 30 million invaders total yet you want to fight the Russians overseas and 5000 miles away.

Pass.

I have said from the beginning and only time will tell if I was correct, this is Hunter Biden's war.

Ukraine is one of the most corrupt nations on earth. Our government set up the coup in 2014(?).

The complicated circular argument here is did Ukraine decide to stop paying-off the Biden Oligarchy? The Biden Oligarchy is still paying Russia/Putin through the backdoor for 7% of the oil we use. As we dumb American citizens wonder why Biden refuses to allow us our energy independence back, like we had under Trump.

What is Putin's true goal? Somebody stepped in his energy pie. Who? Israel with their proposed pipeline to the EU. The United States declined the EastMed line to Cyprus, but Israel decided if that is a no, find another way. The new proposed line to the EU cuts directly into Putin's pie. It also cuts into Biden's.

Israel's gas and weapon

Putin is not after the EU, he is after control of the natural gas in the region. He already has troops in Syria. This is about stopping the newly proposed pipeline.

Putin is flexing his muscle and letting the world know to not interfere with his efforts to take control of the region leading down to the Mediterranean. The EU is not where Putin is heading.

And if you are an end-times buff wondering how Israel fits into all this beyond a pipeline, read this carefully.

One scenario that might potentially need to be addressed is how to prevent sanctioned Russian oligarchs from using Israel as a financial safe haven for their assets. As things stand, the network said, there is no legislation that would prevent oligarchs with Israeli citizenship from putting their money into bank accounts here. Israel said likely to shift to more pro-Ukraine stance as Russian invasion escalates

In today's world of 'cancel culture,' if Israel allows the highlighted version, it would clearly explain how all the world comes to surround her and crush her. Read the article regarding Israel and Russia in particular. Israel has not taken a firm stance yet as they use Russian airspace over Syria. Notice the pipeline avoids Syrian land.

Putin views the gas fields as up for the taking. Israel is going to broker a deal with Putin later this week. Will Israel's offer be enough to stop the war? Biblically, it will not.

And yes, it is 5D global chess, good luck with researching it and understanding what is being played on every level.

Why is it when an anti Trump newspaper reports on “something” Trump supposedly said, there are Freezers who take the bait and post as if the liars are telling the truth.

For goodness sakes, Freepers used to be smarter than this.

I appreciate Trump’s sense of humor - especially the chinese flag quip. There was a time, not that long ago, when it was ok to admire the battle tactics of, say, a Japanese general, or a confederate colonel or an Argentine commander, without even remotely being perceived as a slobbering fan.

And I agree with Trump - nato countries should have had armaments at the ready to pour over Ukraine’s borders the same time Trump was sending them millions and getting pig-nosed by Congress for asking Ukraine, among other things, where those millions were going. It shouldn’t be up to the US to marshall this. Continental pantywaists sit around talking about an EU defense force to supplement Nato forces, but can’t manage to get out of their Spanish leather recliners to actually agree on any path of action - on anything - much less funding the defense of themselves or their neighbors... it’s downright embarassing.
