Trump critcizing Putin is just a dog and pony show.

He criticizes Putin, then he blasts Zelenskyy. If he can ever get a deal to end the hostilities (in Russia's favor of course) he will say how even handed he was, how he's big a peacemaker worthy of the Nobel Prize. He is still doing Putin's bidding.

Zelensky should never agree to any mineral deal either. Orange slobby will never keep his end of the bargain.

If Putin led Lump by the nose with kompromat, Lump doesn’t feel as threatened now every key agency is in his control. Pee tapes and Epstein are old news. Ukraine signed the minerals deal so his allegiance is shifting. Putin won’t sign his deal and Lump lives for revenge. Lump v. Putin, essentially a mob war, is a horrifying thought.
