Former president Donald Trump's recent praise for Russian President Vladimir Putin will look "atrocious" if, as U.S. intelligence predicts, tens of thousands of people die during an invasion of Ukraine, according to Michael McFaul, the former U.S. ambassador to Russia.

"There's going to come a moment of truth very soon," McFaul said on MSNBC on Wednesday. "There is a good and evil in the world."

McFaul pointed to not only Trump's comments praising Putin, but also those of his former secretary of state, Mike Pompeo.

Well when a &&^%$ hole says that he could stand on 5th avenue and kill someone and then praise another psychopath, he doesn't give a shit about others being killed....

Excess deaths are now well over a million and they don't hammer him like they should.

He got it the way of virtually every anti-Covid measure possible and many have died and more are still dying because of his siding with the virus during a pandemic.

Him praising Putin and Ukrainians dying is nothing compared to his horrendous handling of the pandemic

I wonder if tfg sees this as a way to get back in the WH.. because his wanker buddy's Invasion of Ukraine will raise gas prices sky high in America?
