Unfortunately, when Donald Trump returned the White House, he immediately began to reverse course and abandon the efforts on behalf of our ally Ukraine. Instead, Trump took the side of Putin, blaming the war on Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, who Trump actually accused of starting the war. Trump even blamed Biden for being either too weak (to deter Putin), or too strong (by supporting Ukraine’s entry into the European Union and NATO). Take your pick. But Trump’s loyalty to Putin was, and still is, unshakeable.<\/p>\n
SEE THIS: Trump Takes Putin\u2019s Side (Again) on Charges that Ukraine Attacked a Putin Residence<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Which makes the comment that Trump posted<\/a><\/strong> today on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, something more than peculiar. The comment linked to an article<\/a><\/strong> in the ordinarily far-right tabloid, the New York Post, citing its headline that says “Putin \u2018attack\u2019 bluster shows Russia is the one standing in the way of peace.”<\/em><\/p>\n That’s a complete contradiction of Trump’s long held position that Putin is “serious”<\/em> about wanting peace, and that Zelenskyy has been obstructing it. The Post’s article noted Trump’s unfounded optimism that an end to the war was “closer than ever before,”<\/em> and that “Putin chose lies, hatred, and death instead,”<\/em> referencing his evidence-free allegation that Ukraine had just bombed one of his residences. The article elaborated that…<\/p>\n “It\u2019s rich that Putin, who has waged a brutal war for nearly four years, believes that any violence in his vicinity merits special outrage. After all, Russia launched 131 drones on Christmas at Kyiv and other cities, killing seven civilians. Civilians. The Kremlin specifically targets apartment buildings and power plants to punish the ordinary people of Ukraine. The Russians kidnap children. They torture and execute prisoners. Further, Moscow has tried repeatedly to assassinate Zelensky. Any attack on Putin is more than justified. But here\u2019s the rub: The drone strike likely never happened.” […]<\/p>\n “The answer should not be more concessions, but a bigger stick. Kyiv has done its part. The onus should be on Putin to step up or face more stringent sanctions and more deadly weapons in Ukraine…Spare us his crocodile tears and turn up the heat.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Despite the fact that there is no proof that Putin’s residence was bombed, Trump predictably took Putin’s word for it. Never mind that Zelenskyy denied it, and Trump had no evidence from U.S. or allied intelligence that confirmed it. To the contrary, Trump’s own NATO ambassador, Matthew Whitaker, couldn’t confirm it during a friendly interview on Fox News. [UPDATE: The Wall Street Journal reports<\/a><\/strong> that “U.S. Finds Ukraine Didn\u2019t Target Putin in Drone Strike.”]<\/em><\/p>\n Even though Trump took Putin's word for it, his own NATO Ambassador, Matthew Whitaker, can't confirm to Fox News whether there was any attack on a Putin residence by Ukraine. #TrumpIsPutinsPuppet<\/p>\n — News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social)<\/a> 2025-12-30T18:30:24.722Z<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
