Why does Trump keep blaming Ukraine for getting invaded by Russia?

This is also about the trade war that Trump unleashed against the whole world, demanding that everyone comes and grovels before him and “makes a deal”.

This just messes up all Trump’s plans.

Trump’s constant complaints that Ukraine “shouldn’t have started the war” mean exactly that — if a powerful country like the USA says they want your land and impose conditions, you should “negotiate a good deal” and live happily ever after.

What if all other countries realize they need to fight back?

Bad, bad example Ukraine is setting.

Trump doesn’t blame Ukraine for getting invaded by Russia — what he’s saying, is that Ukraine shouldn’t have defended herself, because Russia is “20 times larger”. And Trump is saying this because he wants to start invading other countries — Greenland, Panama, Canada — and he doesn’t want them to fight back. He wants them to surrender without a fight.

For 3 years, Ukraine has been standing against world’s most brutal war machine — Russia. And Russia can’t break Ukraine. The Russians can’t break the Ukrainians.

This is why Ukraine that’s fighting back against mighty Russia is such a nuisance for Trump.

Very bad example.
