After days of expressing displeasure with his latest phone call with Putin, Trump went even further at a Cabinet meeting.

A new book alleges that President Donald Trump told donors he threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin with bombing Moscow if Russia invaded Ukraine.

CNN on Tuesday aired newly surfaced audio of President Donald Trump boasting to donors during his 2024 presidential campaign that he had once warned Russian President Vladimir Putin he would “bomb the shit out of Moscow” if Russia invaded Ukraine.

Trump said at a Cabinet meeting that he was "not happy" with Putin, who he forcefully criticized for a second day in a row.

Donald Trump told a private gathering of donors last year that he once sought to deter Russian President Vladimir Putin from attacking Ukraine by threatening to “bomb the sh*t out of Moscow” in retaliation,

WASHINGTON -- President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he's “not happy” with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, saying Moscow's ongoing war in Ukraine is “killing a lot of people” on both sides. “I’m not happy with him, I can tell you that much right now. This is killing a lot of people,” Trump said of Putin during a meeting with his Cabinet.

"We're going to send some more weapons – we have to. They have to be able to defend themselves," Trump said of Ukraine July 7.

An audio recording from 2024 run by CNN in which Trump said he had threatened Putin with bombing Moscow if he entered Ukraine, plus the U.S. leader's latest criticism, could mean a tougher stance by Washington toward Moscow is on the cards.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Wednesday he expects a vote as soon as this month to place severe new sanctions on Russia, the latest sign of a growing fracture between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin,

The president promised he would end the war before he even took office. Instead Putin is slaughtering more Ukrainian civilians.
