  1. As an American, being loyal to a foreign uncharismatic dictator is somehow even more pathetic than being loyal to Trump

  2. How much Russian propaganda does it take to think Putin is the good guy?

  3. > “I’ve had enuf of Putin killing innocent ppl,” Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa wrote on X, formerly Twitter, on Monday. “Pres Trump take action—AT LEAST SANCTIONS.”

    This passage from the article sticks out to me for multiple reasons.

    Knee jerk was something like *this congressman sounds like a moron*.

    Then I read that it was posted by Chuck Grassley, and it became something like *how impressive this old man knows how to use Twitter*

  4. Eh. It’s only a matter of time before Putin whips his little gimp back in line.

  5. Have their been any actions or just words for this “turn”?

  6. He turned in Putin like the vow he spoke to be faithful to his wives or the oath he swore to Constitution.

  7. He made a single truth social post. Hes not turning on shit.

  8. They’re not divided; they’re just confused they’re not being directed consistently. Give it a week.

    Also, Trump hasn’t turned on Putin. His actions are all that matters, his words are ephemeral and worthless.

  9. Never you worry Fox News will come up with a narrative they will align with.

  10. There’s never any division.
    They do as Dear Leader tells them to do.
    They think as Dear Leader tells them to think..

  11. if this is true then trumps and the republicans are losing there last bit of support left

  12. BS. He never “turned on putin.” He sometimes says things here and there to create the appearance that he’s turning on putin, but he doesn’t actually do anything to try to hurt russia and help Ukraine. He also keeps criticizing Zelensky and trying to “both sides” the war. trump is not really going to turn on his master.

  13. Unfathomable that the boomers who lived through the Cold War think Russia is now our best ally. Absolutely absurd

  14. Trump is merely trying to avoid taking an action that will cause him real political blowback from either the pro Putin or pro Ukraine sides of the Republican party. This is why he lambasts Zelensky just as much (or more) than Putin.

    In the end, however, Trump will do nothing. But it’s in Trump’s interests to keep stringing everyone along, thinking there’s a chance he might go one way or the other, for as long as possible. Maybe Russia will just finally finish off their conquest of Ukraine before Trump has to make any decisions. If only Zelensky would get with the program and surrender, then this entire distraction could finally be swept away.

  15. He’s *not* turning on Putin… this is all theater. They think that we’ll believe that he’s breaking with his puppet master, if puts out BS like this, when we all know that this is all prearranged, and wording agreed to by his handlers.

    There is not a chance that he is “turning on Putin”

  16. Wait so some maga people prefer Putin over trump? wtf is going on with these traitors

  17. I don’t believe for one moment Trump has turned on Putin.

    His anger at Putin is entirely fake. He’s forced to fake it for his political survival.

    We’ve all heard the expression ‘Survival of the fittest’. Well Trump is an example of ‘Survival of the shittiest’.

  18. Fake news… MAGA isn’t divided, especially not over Putin. It’s all wishful thinking and sensationalism from a dying media outlet.

  19. This country needs an enema to cleanse out the MAGA. Russian symps or Trump symps.

  20. Don’t believe it. Cheeto will ALWAYS listen to Daddy Putin

  21. Nope don’t get it twisted. MAGA is that subset of people who will argue anything to own the libs and keep power by worshiping anything trump says. When that meant supporting Putin they acquiesced. If shrimp turns his back on Putin they would be the loudest to talk about the evil that is Putin. I’ve seen their play too many times now.

  22. What makes anyone think he’s turned on Putin? Krasnov is probably just following a script

  23. Trump will probably fall back in love with Putin in a few days

  24. Lot’s of talk, meanwhile Putin laughs at Trump and the Western allies. They will be next unless Putin is stopped. Haven’t we learned anything about appeasement? Strong sanctions and continued military aid. Get Russians to turn on Putin.

  25. Divided on what?? Putin is a scumbag dictator warmonger. Theres no grey area here MAGAs, you gain NOTHING by siding with Russia on any front. How is this even a discussion??

  26. Get back to me when he actually does anything effective.

  27. They are just waiting for faux news to tell them what to think.
