Watching Putin continue to poke at Trump is hilarious. And watching the two of them point fingers and try to out manipulate one another. Except for the fact it’s all so serious. And deadly. These two.
Russia is issuing statements that Ukraine has sabotaged Trump’s efforts to bring peace with its attack on Ru airfields.

Ukraine targeted legitimate military bases, NOT civilians

Expect DJT to claim Ukraine sabotaged his efforts with their “terrorist attack”, claiming “Russia was ready for peace.”

There’s so much going on it’s hard to keep up. Impossible actually and that is the point. I applaud the journos and editors who ignore the shiny pennies Trump tosses around - and look the other direction to see what is REALLY going on. Ignore the noise and look for the quiet truth.
