Presidential Debate: Trump talks about war in Ukraine

The questioning during Thursday's debate turned to foreign policy beginning with the Russian war in Ukraine, which is now in its third year.

Former President Donald Trump suggested Russia never would have attacked Ukraine if he had been in office.

“If we had a real president, a president that knew that was respected by Putin, he would have never he would have never invaded Ukraine,” he said.

Trump has a long history of positive comments about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s toughness, including calling Putin’s tactics in the 2022 invasion of Ukraine “genius” and “very savvy.”

Trump expresses no such warmth for Ukraine or Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, most recently calling him a “salesman” this month for the Ukrainian leader’s military aid requests to the United States.

So basically, no actual policy prescriptions for the war except for appeasement.

Election commissions should establish new criteria for candidates, focusing on their mental and physical ability to serve effectively for the next term.

It's alarming that trump is more worried about a us president that putin would respect rather than a us president that would do the right thing which is aiding a country that's being invaded and destroyed by a hostile nation

[bobwoods]

Someone tell Trump that Russian invaded Ukraine in 2014
