on Saturday while also calling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky"a brave man" amid Russia's deadly invasion of his country.
"The problem is not that Putin is smart, which, of course, he's smart," Trump said."The problem is that our leaders are dumb... and so far, allowed him to get away with this travesty and assault on humanity." The former President has repeatedly praised Putin in the days since Russian troops crossed into Ukraine and began launching rocket strikes against the country's capital of Kyiv. His comments on Zelensky come days after he lavished praise on Putin, calling the Kremlin leader"genius" and"savvy" in a radio interview. Those remarks were the latest of many instances where the 45th President has approved of, or admired, authoritarian rulers.
