Putin allegedly being a friend of Trump, is nothing but a propaganda BS line pushed by Democrats, and a pretty ridiculous one. Trump was tough on Putin, and a lot tougher than weakling Biden, who doesn't know how to be tough.
1. the Trump administration imposed sanctions on Russia — including on 7 of Russia’s richest individuals, and 17 top government officials for their interference in our elections.
2. The sanctions directly penalized Putin’s inner circle, by prohibiting them from traveling to the United States ever again. He did this by opening a bank account in the West, preventing them from doing business with the West and prohibiting anyone else to do business on their behalf.
3. During his first month in office ,Trump upheld strict sanctions to punish Russia. These punished more than three dozen individuals and organizations that were behind the invasion of Ukraine.
4. Mnuchin stated that there would be no easing of the sanctions until Russia meets its obligations under the 2015 Minsk agreement — the ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine.
5. Trump closed of Russian diplomatic properties in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and New York City, that appeared to be a threat to American security
6. Trump led the world in expelling Russian diplomats after the nerve agent attack in the UK Expelled 60 Russian diplomats from U.S. soil.
7. Trump lambasted Russia for using oil to hold NATO’s Eastern European countries hostage. Trump underscored the dangers of those countries’ dependence on Russian oil, leading to their inability to criticize Russia the rest of the year
8. By ramping up US oil production, Trump made America #1 in the world in energy production, and our exports to Europe relieved them of being dependent on Russian oil
9. Trump sold Patriot missle defense system to Poland. Obama capitulated to Russia in 2010 by removing missile launchers in Poland
10. No Red line in Syria..........they were actually hit by Trump
11. Trump pressured NATO allies, and they're spending $69 billion more on defense since 2016
12. Trump sanctioned Nord Stream 2
13. Trump sold anti-tank weapons to Ukraine (Obama gave them blankets)
14. Trump withdrew from INF treaty
All of this is nonsense. Nord Stream 2 is a simple pipeline - one of many - and not any reason for any war. Russia will lose a lot of money now beause it did not agree with this peace keeping way of politics "Wandel durch Handel" (~ "change by trade"). Putins fault and not the fault of anyone else. We offered peace - Russia chose war - and we all have to find a way now between the fight for freedom and the total destruction of everyone on planet Earth. And one thing is also clear: Trump is not freedom! Trump is slavery! And Trump - a very good friend of Putin and perhaps under his control - tried to destroy the NATO and eliminated security shields: for example the use of military mid range nukes. And to increase the budget for defense in the states of the NATO for their own armies had been by the way an agreement with president Obama. Timeline had been the year 2024. And with the exorbitant high costs of the USA for their own armies had this anyway never anything to do. But Trump destroyed very successful the good relations between Germany and the USA. It's by the way funny that the NATO defense ministers met each other in Germany to speak about Putins nonsense war - more exact in your air base Ramstein - while Trump had moved the headquarter for military operations in Europe from Germany to Bruxels in Belgium.
