Trump just sent a “letter” to NATO countries demanding they stop buying Russian oil to force Putin to end his SLAUGHTER of Ukraine.
Of course Trump added “this isn’t my war, this is Biden and Zelenskyy’s war! This would have never happened had I been president!” in an effort to —once again—try to convince Putin that he’s not mad at Putin, and that it’s not Putin’s fault, and that Trump’s only forced to do this because Biden and Zelenskyy are horrible leaders and have forced him to play this hand against Putin.
If you are sitting there going whhhhhhhaaaaaa thhhhhhhhh fuuuuuuuu did I just read, don’t worry, it is every bit as maniacally confusing as you think it is. 
Let us help unravel it. Trump knows Putin is a ravenous, murderous dictator. Trump knows Putin needs to be stopped. Trump knows Putin invaded Ukraine. He knows all these things. But he pretends like he doesn’t know in an effort to ingratiate himself to Putin and at the same time put down his political enemies in America AND BOAST ABOUT HIMSELF.
Does Trump sincerely think that Putin will drink his Kool-Aid? Absolutely he does. Trump sincerely thinks that everyone drinks his Kool-Aid. He is 100% convinced he is the greatest man alive, with the greatest ideas, and that if everyone will just drink his Kool-Aid, the world will magically transform into Valhalla. Yes, I believe he sincerely thinks this nonstop.
