Trump on Fire, Rips Putin and Zelensky in Powerful Statement

"President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social account to fire a broadside at Russian President Vladimir Putin as well as Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky. In typical Trump fashion, he let both of the other national leaders have it.
"I'm not happy with what Putin's doing! He's killing a lot of people. And I don't know what the hell happened to Putin! I've known him a long time. Always gotten along with him. But he's sending rockets into cities and killing people. And I don't like it at all. OK? We're in the middle of talking and he's shooting rockets into Kiev and other cities! I don't like it at all."
We should note that President Trump isn't sparing Ukraine's president, either; in his Truth Social post on Sunday, the president wrote: "Likewise, President Zelensky is doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don’t like it, and it better stop."
