Could it be that Putin needed to invade Ukraine now that he doesn’t have his boy in the White House doing his work to subvert NATO?
Incredibly, even now, Trump praises Putin, calling his attack on Ukraine “genius” and “savvy.”
More on Ukraine, I’m sure, next week.
Meanwhile, speaking of Little Donald, this week’s comic is another installment of “Donald and John,” the scamp of a boy ex-president and his imaginary publicist. This week they get a new babysitter who’s very interested in their criminal fraud.
