Trump Has Spoken To Putin Eight Times Since February; He Has Never Mentioned The Russian Bounties On US Soldiers

"I have never discussed it with him."
Donald Trump admitted that in the EIGHT phone calls he has had with Russian leader Vladimir Putin since February 2020, the subject of Putin paying the Taliban cash bonuses for murdering US soldiers has never come up. Not even once. In every single call, Trump and Putin spoken about "other things".

"I have never discussed it with him" will sit alongside "I don't take responsibility at all" as one of the defining quotes of Trump's four years in the White House.

Trump assures his white voters in the suburbs they will "no longer be bothered" by "low-income housing" (i.e., non-white neighbours). The Affirmative Furthering Fair Housing Rule has its roots in the Fair Housing Act of 1968, which was passed to prevent housing discrimination. In 1973, Trump was sued by the Department of Justice under Richard Nixon for racial discrimination in many of his New York housing developments. Nearly 50 years later, he is waging a war for segregation.

Also: "Generations of Texas oil workers before you gave every last bit of sweat and heart and grit that they had to build up this country – they loved our country, they loved our country so much they couldn't breathe." ... Trump said that. What the hell does that even mean? It's an interesting and bizarre choice of words considering the current state of the US, but it still makes no sense.
". . . seeking an even higher level of restrictions, mandating net zero carbon emissions, which, frankly, is impossible, for all new homes, offices, and buildings by 2:30not possible to do, and if you ever did it, it would cost so much that your home would be valueless"

Especially since it's already 3:41.
