Analysis | ‘Genius,’ ‘Savvy’: Trump reacts to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine exactly as you’d expect

Trump said “doing,” actually, but Harrington’s clip cut off a bit too early. That’s probably because of what Trump said next.“I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, ‘This is genius,’ ” Trump continued. “Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine.

I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper.

The disdain for Biden that enveloped the comments about Putin isn’t a surprise, even as Trump’s dismissal of Biden’s response was undercut by the announcement of new sanctions on Tuesday afternoon.Nor is it a surprise that Trump would express admiration for Putin. Few people better encapsulate the right’s mixture of respect for Putin’s autocratic tendencies and the perceived embarrassment of Democratic presidents that results than Donald Trump.
