Portugal's president has branded President Donald Trump a "Russian asset," blasting him for his tepid response to Moscow while Ukraine struggles against Russia's invasion.

Comments

"After failing to secure a ceasefire from Putin at the red-carpet summit in Alaska earlier this month, Trump instead targeted Zelensky, claiming the Ukrainian leader "can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to, or he can continue to fight."

Citing Trump's soft posture on Russia, Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa said Wednesday,

"The supreme leader of the world's greatest superpower is, objectively, a Soviet, or Russian, asset. He functions as an asset," according to CNN Portugal."

Maybe Putin has the Epstein list and let Trump know it.

Trump is a dicktator in training; we can't expect his mentor Putin, to teach him everything overnight. Just relax, think of how much time you'll save by not needing to vote any more!

Tell me how he hasn't functioned as a Russian asset.... preferably without lying.

"Trump is a Russian Asset"

What's dangerous is that every member of both Houses of Congress AND the U.S. Supreme Court knows it, too.

Trump chose Paul Manafort, a known russian asset who had worked in europe for years installing russian puppets into democratic governments, AS HIS CAMPAIGN MANAGER in 2015. Then they immediately rewrote the GOP platform to say Putin can keep crimea. That's the ONLY part of the GOP platform they even touched.

It's been totally obvious since then. Anyone who is unaware has simply chosen to be ignorant about it.

And putin's propaganda has made the dumb third of america think that it's better to have a republican president who works for our enemy than a democrat in the white house.

"Trump won't follow through with his threats to Russia."

That was then. But now that Putin has made a fool out of Trump in Alaska and doublecrossed him by joining a co-op trade bloc with China and India and then the 3 of them throwing salt on the wound by attending a big military parade in China, (to which Trump wasn't invited.)

My guess is that Trump is plotting and scheming his revenge as we speak. Maybe even by sending $$Billions$$ in military aid to Ukraine.

He'll be sorry he treated our NATO allies so badly. Friends of the United States are going to be hard to find.

Also, the man is Nuckin' Futz. Article 25 anybody?

We've been calling his that for almost a decade.

Trump is Putin's *itch.

CLOWN

I'm not sure Putin cares so much any more. He's got more powerful and less insane friends now.

Together they've left Trump on the outside, looking in.

My guess is that this is just a defensive move and will go back to normal trade relations when the Commander-of-Chaos gets the ol' heave-ho and rational, non-MAGA people take charge again.
