Donnie praised his puppet master Putin again as Ukrainian children and innocent civilians are being killed. Donnie calls Putin "smart" for his illegal invasion of Ukraine. Donnie calls the United States and our allies "dumb" for imposing crippling sanctions on Russia after he was the one who set this all in motion by giving Putin whatever he wanted for 4 years. This traitor Trump should move to Russia. Twitter worldwide has been condemning this orange lunatic for his love of Putin.     

‘Traitorous, narcissistic sociopath’: Experts stunned after ‘small, weak, powerless’ Trump praises Putin at CPAC



In a rambling, partly ad-libbed speech to attendees of the far right conservative CPAC conference Donald Trump, the former U.S. president, praised the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, who is right now exploding bombs on the sovereign nation of Ukraine in an illegal attack experts say make him a war criminal.

“Yesterday reporters asked me if I thought President Putin was smart,” Trump said Saturday night at CPAC. “I said, ‘Of course he’s smart,’ to which I was greeted with, ‘Oh, that’s such a terrible thing to say.’ I like to tell them ‘Yes, he’s smart.’ The NATO nations and indeed the world, as he looks over what’s happening strategically with no repercussions or threats whatsoever, they’re not so smart, they’re looking the opposite of smart. ‘If you take over Ukraine, we’re going to sanction you,’ they say. Sanction? Well that’s a pretty weak statement. Putin is smart, but the real problem is that our leaders are dumb, dumb, so dumb.”

Trump does not seem to understand it is unprecedented for the U.S. to personally sanction the leader of a foreign nuclear power. And experts say the actions taken today by the nations of the world will throw Russia into historic economic chaos.

David Plouffe, President Barack Obama’s vaunted campaign manager and senior advisor, blasted Trump as “Putin’s not so sleeper agent on American soil.”

Trump, Plouffe added, “keeps trying to please Daddy,” and called the ex-president a “traitorous, narcissistic sociopath.”

Professor of international relations, author, journalist, and CEO David Rothkopf declares that the “leader of the Republican Party reminds America again that he is not on our side, that he supports a brutal dictator who has launched a barbarous attack against an innocent European neighbor, a democracy of 45 million people.”

Political historian Marc C. Johnson fumes: “This is among the most reprehensible things an American politician has ever said. Ever said.”

Hillary Clinton’s former Deputy National Press Secretary says Trump has “continued to provide propaganda videos to help Putin and hurt Ukraine.”

Brooklyn Law assistant professor Andrew Jennings notes that “President Biden, working with NATO allies, has adeptly created the conditions for what would have been unthinkable weeks ago: Ukraine could win this war on the battlefield and the Putin regime could fall. Right now, those should be the goals we all contribute to, however we can.”

Vanity Fair’s Joe Hagan says Trump is a “Small, weak, powerless man facing multiple lawsuits, enormous bank loans, fast-shrinking political clout and a world leaving him behind faster than he can possibly realize.”

Former federal prosecutor Ron Filipkowski sounds stunned: “Even by Trump’s standards, this is utterly repulsive. There has never been any former president, at any time in our history, who has ever said things like this about our country during time of conflict. Just vile.”

'Really hard to believe': Morning Joe rips Trump for continued praise of Putin despite Ukraine debacle



MSNBC's Joe Scarborough ripped Donald Trump for continuing to defend Vladimir Putin despite his invasion of Ukraine.

The Russian economy has been hobbled by punishing sanctions, and Ukraine has held strong for five days, but the former U.S. president had nothing but praise for Putin's intelligence.

"It is hard really to believe that -- and you covered this guy for years -- that even with a European invasion going on," Scarborough said, "even with the world standing up and speaking out against Vladimir Putin he still insists this week in saying the invasion was beautiful, it was brilliant, Vladimir Putin -- even not backing down from that, talking about how smart he was to say that they were peacekeepers and what powerful, great peacekeepers they were, or the strongest peacekeepers, something along those lines, along, of course, with the former secretary of state Mike Pompeo who was talking -- again, praising to high heavens Vladimir Putin."

"This is the same guy who swore two years ago to a reporter saying that nobody gave a blank about Ukraine, and Donald Trump won't back down," Scarborough added. "He is still talking about how smart Vladimir Putin is, when Putin has made one of the most -- one of the grandest miscalculations on the world stage of anybody in our lifetime."

"The Russian attack on Ukraine is appalling, it's an outrage and an atrocity that should never have been allowed to occur.  We are praying for the proud people of Ukraine. God bless them all."

Bill Barr turned on Criminal Donald. Guess he doesn't want investigated for all the crimes he helped concoct while being Donnie's "yes man" AG. Barr doesn't get a pass for this but if he can turn over crucial information to convict Donnie then all the better. Donnie can only use the word "RINO" for his toothless attack. Donnie and his MAGA extremists are the real RINOs who have driven all the real conservatives out of the Republican Party. Donnie isn't even a Republican.   

Washington Post: Bill Barr says Trump ‘has neither the temperament nor persuasive powers’ of a leader

Washington CNN — Former US Attorney General Bill Barr thinks former President Donald Trump “has shown he has neither the temperament nor persuasive powers” of a leader, according to excerpts of his forthcoming book obtained by The Washington Post.

“We need leaders not only capable of fighting and ‘punching,’ but also persuading and attracting – leaders who can frame, and advocate for, an uplifting vision of what it means to share in American citizenship,” Barr, who served as Trump’s second attorney general, wrote in the book, “One Damn Thing After Another,” according to the Post.

The comments from the onetime Trump loyalist come as the former President continues to hold considerable influence over the style and direction of the Republican Party, serving as its standard-bearer more than a year after leaving office.

According to the Post, Barr says in the book that the prospect of Trump running for president again was “dismaying.”

CNN has been unable to obtain a copy of the book. Barr did not comment to CNN on the new reporting on the book.

When Barr resigned in December 2020 after telling The Associated Press that the Justice Department had not found any evidence of widespread voter fraud, his split with Trump seemed mostly – at least publicly – amicable, with Barr using his resignation letter to offer a glowing account of Trump’s tenure.

But since then, he has joined a growing list of former administration officials who have unloaded on their former boss for his rhetoric and fixations, including his persistent lies about the 2020 election results.

“The election was not ‘stolen,’” Barr writes in the new book, according to the Post. “Trump lost it.”

The former attorney general also argues that Trump’s election lies led to the attack on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, the Post said in its report, though he stops short of saying the former President “incited” the deadly attack.

Following Barr’s exit from the administration, Trump’s public statements about him became much more critical, with the former President lashing out at Barr last summer in response to Barr saying in a speparate book written by ABC News chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl that he suspected Trump’s claims of widespread election fraud were “all bull***t.”

Trump said in a blistering statement at the time that Barr “was a disappointment in every sense of the word,” and referred to his former attorney general as a “RINO,” an acronym that stands for “Republican in name only.”

CNN has reached out to Trump’s office for a comment on Barr’s book.
