President Joe Biden opened the first overseas trip of his term on Wednesday, declaring that “the United States is back.” And you could certainly see that as British Prime Minister Borris Johnson praised Biden as a “breath of fresh air.” Finally, America is back on the world stage after four very long years. Biden will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in a face-to-face sit-down in Geneva. All of this seemed to trigger former President Donald Trump, so he lashed out in a statement. Trump went as far as to say that he trusts Russia more than the U.S. government. Trump, of course, insulted Biden while the president is overseas meeting with world leaders, telling him not to “fall asleep.”
“As President, I had a great and very productive meeting in Helsinki, Finland, with President Putin of Russia,” Trump wrote. “Despite the belated Fake News portrayal of the meeting, the United States won much, including the respect of President Putin and Russia. Because of the phony Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, made-up and paid for by the Democrats and Crooked Hillary Clinton, the United States was put at a disadvantage — a disadvantage that was nevertheless overcome by me.”
“As to who do I trust, they asked, Russia or our ‘Intelligence’ from the Obama era, meaning people like Comey, McCabe, the two lovers, Brennan, Clapper, and numerous other sleezebags, or Russia, the answer, after all that has been found out and written, should be obvious,” the twice-impeached one-term president continued. “Our government has rarely had such lowlifes as these working for it. Good luck to Biden in dealing with President Putin — don’t fall asleep during the meeting, and please give him my warmest regards!”

The reporting on the Helsinki summit in 2018 was not “fake news.” Trump sided with Putin over our US intelligence agencies.
President Trump: “My people came to me, [Director of Nat’l Intelligence] Dan Coats came to me, some others, they said they think it’s Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it’s not Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.”https://t.co/d78lF0GlCt pic.twitter.com/W3DDqLV5Ql

Oh, where he lumbered out like a trained circus bear with a jaunty Putin?

Seriously though, he wishes the best for Putin and Ghislaine Maxwell.
He’s a mob boss that became President of the United States.

What a disgrace. Trump is the first president that we’ve ever had that hates this country. He literally said he trusts the KGB more than U.S. intelligence agencies.
