Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said he has a great fear that President Trump will cave to Russian President Vladimir Putin over ending the war in Ukraine.
He noted that it would also be bad for the Western societies who have rallied behind Ukraine against Putin because it would undercut the United Statess alliances.
The New York Democrat said the third thing, and worst of all, if Trump caves to Putin over ending the war, it will send a dangerous signal to dictators across the world.
It sends a signal to every dictator in China, in North Korea, in Iran, that if you stand up and bully Trump, youre going to get your way, Schumer said.
