Donald Trump said he had separately warned both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping that he would bomb their respective capitals if either of them invaded their neighbors, newly released audio broadcast by CNN shows.
The U.S. president was recorded speaking at a private fundraiser in 2024 about his conversations with Putin and Xi.
“With Putin I said, ‘If you go into Ukraine, I’m gonna bomb the s*** out of Moscow,’” Trump is heard saying, recounting his version of their conversation. He also said with Xi he also threatened to “bomb the s*** out of Beijing” if it invaded Taiwan, the self-governing island that China claims as its own.
I’m sure Putin and XI are just shaking in their boots right now.
I can’t wait for this guy to go away.
His death day should be a national holiday
I have a fancy bottle of tequila I bought in 2017 I’ve been saving this whole time and I stopped drinking since then, but this will be an exception. I also have one for Mitch McConnell.
Just checked, Russia is still in Ukraine and Moscow remains untouched.
Great news piece
This is not new information. Several conservative commenters told the “bomb the shit out of you” story while campaigning for Trump in fall of 2024.
Literally nobody cares. Turns out the guy says a lot of dumb and exaggerated stuff that doesn’t materialize, or is said for effect.
“…and everyone clapped, and said I was the strongest and smartest, and it really happened” -Trump
Why would China invade itself?
Xi: “If you invade Texas I’ll bomb the shit out of DC”
Trump: 😱😱😱
Trump is many things but an excellent fanfiction writer?
That’s new.
