Trump
Donald Trump says if he was in the whitehouse , Putin would not have invaded the Ukraine .
Would that be because they are mates and Putin would have listened to him OR is it because ( as some think ) that Trump is a bit of a wild one and Putin would have feared what Trump's response would have been?
Would the world be a safer place if Trump was in the Whitehouse ? - (He also said that Putins going into the Ukraine was an act of genius )
He also says that he won two elections and will run again in 2024.

I don't want to be rude, but this is an irrelevant piece of attention seeking by the ex-president.
As for his electoral prospects for 2024, which IS worth of discussion, he still leads in the polls of Repulicans but the gap appeasrs to be narrowing, albeit still giving him a significant lead.
Ron deSantis is coming up on the rails.

ich - // Putin and Trump aren't "mates".
That is a ridiculous idea. //
I think they are not 'mates' but I do think Putin respected Trump in a way he clearly does not respect Biden - Trump and Putin have far more in common, including a worrying disconnection with reality.
Putin may not have invaded, but if Trump regards a possible scenario as a marker for his future campaign, he needs to adjust to reality.
Oh, hang on ...

//Would the world be a safer place if Trump was in the Whitehouse ?//
Yes, I think it would be.
//(He also said that Putins going into the Ukraine was an act of genius )//
Standing alone as a statement that is highly misleading and quite wrong. He said that Putin is smart because he has chosen his moment and Trump has condemned the invasion in no uncertain terms. This is what he said.
//“Yesterday reporters asked me if I thought President Putin is smart. I said of course he’s smart,” he told the crowd at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida.
“The problem isn’t Putin is smart — which of course he is smart — it’s that our leaders are dumb,” he said, adding that Nato nations “are not so smart, they are looking the opposite of smart.”
“Under our leadership the world was a peaceful place because America was strong and the perception of our country was perhaps like it had never been before: powerful, cunning and smart. We were a smart country. Now we are a stupid country,” Mr Trump said.
“The Russian attack on Ukraine is appalling, an outrage and an atrocity that should have never been allowed to occur. We are praying for the proud people of Ukraine, God bless them all,” he said.
“When you have a weak president who is not respected by other nations you have a very chaotic world. The world hasn’t been this chaotic since World War Two,” he said.
He added that Mr Putin “is playing Biden like a drum and it’s not a pretty thing to watch.” He speculated that the Russian president made his decision to attack Ukraine “only after watching the pathetic withdrawal from Afghanistan.”//

I think he is spot on. And by the way, they are not 'mates'. That's misleading too.

As much as it pains me to say it but Trump is correct about weak leaders in the west
I said so at the start of all this
Inaction over Crimea
Meddling in elections in the west
Assassinating dissidents in London and Berlin
Attacking citizens in the uk with weapons grade nerve agents
What did the west do ?
Absolutely nothing
Successive weak western governments who dovetailed each other at varying times has led to this
When we had strong leaders in some we had weak in others and vice versa
This has culminated in the events of the last month
Putin knows the west will do nothing in terms of direct action
I hope the sanctions and measures work very soon but repeat that we need a Russian general to initiate a coup
