Donald Trump has said Vladimir Putin was “doing what anybody would do” after Russia launched a massive missile and drone strike on Ukraine days after the US cut off vital intelligence and military aid to Kyiv.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Friday Trump said he finds it “easier” to work with Russia than Ukraine and that Putin “wants to end the war”.

“I’m finding it more difficult, frankly, to deal with Ukraine. And they don’t have the cards,” Trump said. “In terms of getting a final settlement, it may be easier dealing with Russia.”

Asked whether the Russian leader was taking advantage of the pause in US intelligence sharing and military aid to Ukraine, Trump replied: “I actually think he is doing what anybody else would do.”

    Every fan of Putin I have ever met gave off, “my wife left me for another man,” vibes.

    This post, in particular, radiates those vibes more than any other post of this category I have seen.

    People often ask how you can tell if a particular post is one paid for by Putin himself, or by a true believer. The ones written by paid trolls aren’t as pathetic as this one is. They don’t make you feel sorry for the person writing it.

      I never had a wife. I am an unemployed loser. So I think you have a hard time reading vibes.

            I suggested you were a Putinista based out of cuckoldry, and you responded that it was based out of a deeper level of patheticness.

              The term “patheticness” describes me very well.
