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.
