Trump Again Pushes Wild Claim Of Russia Invasion Happening Because Of A ‘Rigged Election’

Former President Trump once again repeated his wild claim that Russia invaded Ukraine because of a “rigged election” during his speech at CPAC on Saturday night.


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1406745

After accusing President Biden of “turning calm into chaos” and “competence into incompetence,” Trump called Russia’s attack on Ukraine “appalling” and “an atrocity that should never have been allowed to occur.”

He went on to say that war is peace, ignorance is strength, and freedom is slavery.

Putin would have already nuked Ukraine if there hadn’t been a “rigged” election. Thank real President Biden for reuniting NATO, and presenting a unified stand against GQP, I mean , Russian aggression.

TFFascistG really should be in a locked psych ward. In a slightly better world, he would be. God forbid he ever gets sent to prison though. Because white supremicist.

My only hope at this point w/r/t TFG is that his remaining days are more and more and more rage- and spite-filled. I hope his narcissistic anger spirals until he dies of apoplexy.

Well, he’s not entirely wrong. Those elections putting pootie in power were kind of dubious.

He has geometric logic showing Biden made a secret key so he could steel the ice cream (two scoops of course).

Come to think of it, it’s the same as shanking his ball in the rough.

I would mock these statements except so damn many “used to be.normal adults” that I know in the real world echo this drivel.

And… I am convinced Russian state sponsored trolls and bots are magnifying this everywhere.

Here’s a close-up of the label:

Q. Who is in his lap and who is the guy in the mouse suit & what does his sign say?

A. Medvedev is on the lap. Yanukovich is in the mouse suit – that’s prev Ukrainian president that ran away in 2014 after screwing up our EU application. The sign says, “I am legitimate, I am alive” – that’s what he was saying when riots against him started.

ETA: It’s not a mouse, it’s an undefined animal named Cheburashka (Чебура́шка). He’s from a Soviet era book that was made into stop-motion movies. He’s beloved, tantamount to Mickey Mouse, and has been translated into other languages.

Yeah, right.
Putin wouldn’t have had to “invade” if TFG were President, simply because he would have pulled the US out of NATO, leaving Ukraine up shit creek with a broken paddle.
