PSAKI: “At a time when Donald Trump and much of the Republican Party, too many in the Republican Party, are trying to imitate Vladimir Putin or looking the other way, his top political rival has just turned up dead.
Can’t think of anyone better to talk to than someone who sat face-to-face with Vladimir Putin himself, on behalf of Trump himself.
Joining me now is Donald Trump’s former national security advisor, Ambassador John Bolton.
So, we were just talking about this during the break.
I mean, this has been quite a week.
You start with Trump saying that Russia can do whatever they want, as it relates to NATO countries.
It continued with a complete standstill on aid to Ukraine, something they desperately need given the progress Russia has made even over the weekend.
It ended, of course, with the death of Alexei Navalny.
You’ve sat in a lot of these rooms, many of them.
I just want to sort of ask you, how does Putin, how does he consume what’s happening here in the United States, Trump’s words, or lack of words I should say, in some cases?”
