Trump Just Talked to Putin – Didn’t Even Mention Russia Secretly Paying the Taliban to Kill US Soldiers

https://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/2020/07/trump-just-talked-to-putin-didnt-even-mention-russia-secretly-paying-the-taliban-to-kill-us-soldiers/

It’s been 27 days since The New York Times first reported on Russia’s secret bounty program of paying the Taliban to kill U.S. soldiers. President Donald Trump has never publicly responded to this attack on U.S. troops and American sovereignty, nor is there any record of him talking with Russian President Vladimir Putin about it, much less warning him to stop.

The President just missed an opportunity to address the crisis with the leader of Russia: Trump spoke with Putin on Thursday.

The White House just released a “readout” of the call. There is no mention of Russia’s bounty program.

“Today, President Donald J. Trump spoke with President Vladimir Putin of Russia,” the Whitre House said in a statement released to reporters.

He will do anything to avoid the orange jumpsuit waiting for him when he leaves office.
