What did Senator Schumer condemn about Trump's comments on the Ukraine war?
Senator Schumer condemned President Trump's remarks for blaming Ukraine for Putin's invasion, characterizing these comments as 'disgusting' and straight from the Russian propaganda playbook. He criticized Trump for deliberately distorting the truth and siding with Putin against Ukraine and President Zelensky, who has fought valiantly to defend his country. Schumer emphasized that Ukraine did not start the war—Vladimir Putin did—and expressed outrage at seeing an American president turn against an ally while supporting what he called 'a thug.' He warned that Trump's rhetoric appears to lay groundwork for negotiations that would favor Russia at Ukraine's expense.
