Donnie Come Lately? Eleven Years Have Passed Since Russia First Invaded Ukraine and Only Now Trump Is "Pissed Off" at Putin?

President Trump said he is “very angry, pissed off” at remarks Russian President Vladimir Putin made Friday about Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, suggesting he is not a legitimate leader.

The president threatened to slap a new tariff on Russia if it is at fault for stalling an end “to bloodshed.”

"If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine, and if I think it was Russia's fault—which it might not be—but if I think it was Russia's fault, I am going to put secondary tariffs on oil, on all oil coming out of Russia," Trump said.

"That would be that if you buy oil from Russia, you can't do business in the United States," the president added. "There will be a 25 percent tariff on all oil, a 25- to 50-point tariff on all oil."

Trump told Welker that he's "very angry" and "pissed off" over Putin's recent attack on Zelensky when he suggested that Ukraine should implement a transitional government as any part of a ceasefire deal, effectively pushing the Ukrainian president out of power.

Not so long ago Trump was calling Zelensky a dictator that shouldn't be president because he hasn’t held an election in years. But now he is mad at Putin because Putin suggested Zelensky is not a legitimate leader. I’m not buying it - and I bet it has something to do with Putin saying Trump is right about Greenland. Cheers!
When tRump says
... and if I think it was Russia's fault—which it might not be—but if I think it was Russia's fault, ...
tRump is asking Putin to provide better cover; a better excuse for why tRump failed to make a quick peace deal. Request for cover; that's all it is.

CORRECTION: I've just had an update from Reuters

Better late than never, I guess.

The thing that concerns me is, he's doing this just because everybody thinks he's Putin's little bіtсh.

Is he trying to make Putin laugh again?? Putin is already laughing at him so another waste of time.
Sounds like the Dems like war even more than Trump! Whatever! It's your country, the left is always left out.

@Roundandroundwego

The war was started by Russia.
@beckyromero no, the past is for you to lie about, obviously. You really would deny the US role?
