Mary Trump - Russia, Russia, Russia [View all]

Bob Woodward has a new book coming out that reveals more details about the enduring and disturbing relationship between Donald and Vladimir Putin. War is yet another example of Woodward’s belated reporting, and at this point, I think his work could be more accurately be described as history rather than journalism.

According to Woodward, Donald has kept in fairly close contact with his Russian handler since leaving office in January 2021. The two have spoken at least seven times. Putin is likely checking in on his investment, making sure the leash around his puppet’s neck is still tight, and keeping him in line when it comes to his Ukraine talking points.

Putin’s efforts seem to be having the desired effect. Ever since Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, Donald has pressured Republicans to block military aid to our ally; he has praised the attack as “very smart;” and, because he is an enemy of Western democracy, he has also refused to say that Ukraine should win the war. As recently as February, Donald promised he’d “encourage” Russia “to do whatever the hell they want” to NATO allies that don’t fund their militaries sufficiently.

As for my uncle’s motivations, we can’t discount the possibility that he has shared the contents of the highly classified documents he stole from the White House with the leader of Russia, our enemy.
