Trump Brags About Relationship To Putin As Fox News Shows Body Bags In Ukraine

Former President Donald Trump skipped another opportunity to call Russian President Vladimir Putin’s actions evil on Wednesday, then boasted about how well he knew the dictator.

“I knew Putin very well. Almost as well as I know you, Sean,” Trump told his close confidante, Fox News host Sean Hannity, as the network aired graphic images of dead bodies and the damage left by Russian troops in Ukraine.

“I will tell you, we talked about it, we talked about it a lot, he did want Ukraine, but I said, ‘You’re not going into Ukraine,’” Trump continued. “He would never, ever have gone into Ukraine.”

Minutes earlier, Hannity had prompted Trump to denounce Putin.

“I asked you the last time you were on, whether you think that this is evil in our time,” Hannity said. “Do you believe this is evil in our time?”

Trump did not answer the question; instead ,he ranted about NATO.

“Don’t forget, I rebuilt NATO,” Trump falsely claimed.

Trump continues to be an embarrassment to our country.
