Putin JUST Threatened Trump.

Well, Donald Trump once again is getting

played by Vladimir Putin. You might

remember when I live streamed the

interview between Tucker Carlson and

Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin is a

sales guy. This guy is a smooth, calm

talker. Sit back in his chair. Let the

translator say, you know, what they need

to say. Seem methodical.

You know, Trump, you're a brilliant man.

If it weren't for Biden, I would have

never invaded Ukraine. You're so right.

Mind you, Putin is trembling in his

pants that Ukraine might get their hands

on tomahawk missiles. This is a big

deal. Of course, Putin's got to play it

down. Let me give you the scoop of

what's going on right here. Okay,

introducing the Tomahawk Block 4

missile.

These are 550 lb fuel tank, 2800 lb

bombs with a range of a,000 miles. We

don't even need half of that to get from

the capital of Ukraine to the Kremlin.

The Kremlin is at risk

if Ukraine gets Tomahawk cruise

missiles. Zalinski wants Tomahawks so he

can talk to Putin. Complete as

well. Zilinski wants to hawks because

Zilinski knows these are the weapons

that are going to allow Ukraine to go

and strike deep inside of Russia. They

will first threaten and then they will

use the weapons. Right now they use

drones to attack Russian energy

infrastructure. But Tomahawks changed

the script of the war. Putin does not

want this. So what a surprise.

Zalinski's coming and announces, "I'm

coming to the White House on Friday."

What happens the very day before that

Friday? What happens the very day

before? Putin calls Trump and spends two

hours on the phone with him cuz Trump,

you're so right. Everything you're doing

is so good, Trump. You're so good. I

can't wait to work with you, Trump. Two

hours on the phone manipulating Trump.

That we're actually still friends.

Trump, don't be mean to me. It's just

hard. And what do we get? We get the

following statements. We get from Trump.

You know what? Uh we're going to have a

highlevel meeting of advisors with Putin

and uh we're going to give them more

time. Okay? We're going to give them

more time. And we said we would sanction

other countries who import Russian oil.

The Indians already said they're going

to stop doing it. Uh now we got to work

on the Chinese, but what we're not going

to sanction the other sides just yet.

We're just going to give them some more

time because we're going to have a

meeting. Okay? We tried to have a

meeting in Alaska. I know that meeting

didn't work, but we're going to have

another meeting. Okay? And then maybe we

can get Putin and Zalinski together and

it'll all be fine. Maybe we'll meet in

Budapest. That's the update, you know,

from Trump. Meanwhile, this morning, we

hear literally, you can't make this up,

we literally hear this morning the

director of our nuclear energy agency in

America tells us, "Yeah, we're starting

to have furlows at the nuclear energy

department in the United States." What

the hell?

Why? This is the last thing we should be

doing is laying people off, even

temporarily, at our nuclear weapons

agency. We're being told that our

Department of War now wants to increase

the development of nuclear submarines

from like a little over one sub per year

to like two and a half to three subs per

year, which is great. But how are you

going to do that if you start laying off

people in the nuclear weapons agency?

While at the same time, what's China

doing? Oh, great. Look at what China's

doing. China adds US entities to their

unreliable entity risk list, including

Done by Axon, which is basically our

ability to fight the mass production of

drones by countries like China, which is

in cahoots with Russia.

And oh, we just keep talking to Putin.

It'll be fine. And Trump's gonna take

into account what he said and his

conversation with Putin when he meets

Silinski on Friday. So maybe we don't

need to give Ukraine tomahawks because

Putin's such a nice man. Now Putin's

Kremlin released a statement and Putin

and Trump did talk tomahawks. And what

what did Putin say? Putin's hookline and

sinker manipulating Trump. He says,

quote, "Tommahawks wouldn't change the

battlefield situation. If anything,

Donnie T, it would actually just harm

not the issues that the that Russia has

with Ukraine, but it would actually hurt

the relationship between the United

States and Russia and it would hurt the

peace process." And you know, Donald

Trump, you want peace, right? Oh, yeah.

Of course, Trump wants peace because

that's what he's always talking about

now. He's done a great job so far. Knock

on wood. I hope he keeps going in

Israel.

But that came through having balls in

Iran. We don't have balls with Putin. No

balls with Putin right now. No, just

talk. And Putin is is eating our lunch.

Trump actually takes the time to talk up

economic cooperation with Russia,

saying, "Oh, well, you know, things

could be great. We could have strong

economies together. We could work

together. We could have economic

cooperation if we have peace. And all

Putin ends up doing is going, "Yes,

you're right, Donnie. We could have such

great cooperation." But will China even

allow that? Because Russia's economy

isn't that big. Russia is basically just

a puppet of the axis. North Korea, Iran

in conjunction with mostly China. And so

this idea that, oh, don't give Zilinski

dumb missiles because it'll hurt the

United States and and Russia's

relationship is fugazi.

Complete fugazi. The Russians are

shaking in their boots because they

don't have the Patriot missile defense

systems to take down these tomahawks as

well as we do. Now, Russia does have

weapons to take down missiles. So, let's

be clear. And there are systems

like the Patriots that Russia has, but

they could be overwhelmed by enough of

these tomahawks. And this is why Russia

is afraid. This is why Russia's like,

"Stick Put Putin on a call, Mr. Salesman

on a call with Trump to not get those

missiles sent over." Now, I get a lot of

people are like, "Hey, you know, we

shouldn't be supporting Ukraine this

much anyway." But remember folks, you

can overwhelm Russian defenses with Tom

tomahawk launches. You could actually

get some real strategic advantages

against Russia by making them tr tremble

that you could literally

strike the Kremlin with these weapons.

Now, of course, is there a risk then of

escalating situations to World War II?

Of course, that's an issue as well. So,

there's a duality here and that's

probably what Donald Trump is

recognizing. That said,

Donald Trump gets manipulated by Putin

all the time. And it's sad because I'd

like to see some of the balls that we

saw with Hamas actually start happening

with Russia. It's not happening. Now,

some people make the argument that, oh,

well, you know, we shouldn't be uh

fighting this war in Ukraine anyway.

Like, this isn't our war to fight.

Anybody who says that misunderstands

that this is literally the United States

fighting Russia. This is not Ukraine

versus Russia. This is literally the

United States trying to weaken a nuclear

power through a proxy war in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian lives are being spent to

weaken a nuclear power. A country that

potentially, I mean, half of them

probably don't work, but on paper has

more nuclear weapons than the United

States. It has the most nuclear weapons

in the or in the world. Some say

slightly more than the US. Most American

counts say the US has slightly more.

Ours probably actually work. Uh but

China's like the next the distant next

distant country is China with number of

nuclear weapons and they have a fraction

of the nukes that Russia and the United

States have like maybe 5%. Now they're

trying to proliferate. They're

manufacturing as many bombs as they can

get their hands on because they realize

you know conflicts with the United

States are really inevitable especially

with this Trump trade war which will

keep dragging on probably for the next

year which isn't great but it'll happen.

But anyway,

this is a proxy war of America versus

the versus Russia to weaken

a known uh cyber bully and probably

supporter of terrorism to some extent as

well. You know, the United States

striking Russia through the Ukrainian

proxy is really no different than the

United States directly attacking Iran.

It is an attack directly against the

axis. The United States fights Iran with

direct attacks. The United States fights

Russia through Ukraine. The United

States fights China with a trade war.

Nobody pays attention to North Korea

because they really don't matter. You

got, you know, Japan and and and Taiwan.

And honestly, China keeps the reigns

pretty tight on them.

But if you look at it that way, it's

like, oh, the United States is really

kind of already at war with all three of

these. But the fact that Trump gets so

manipulated into believing Putin all the

time is somewhat surprising to me. You

know what happened to peace through

strength? This is peace through, you

know, getting walked over by Putin. Oh,

wait. It's not peace. It's actually

death through getting walked over by uh

by um you know, Putin here. It's kind of

crazy to me. So, I think that's quite

wild. Uh, and it's sad when I when I see

these these readouts of these two-hour

phone calls the day before supposed to

meet with Zalinski to pick up his bombs.

It's wild to me.

Now, obviously, we can brand that we're

not actually at direct war with Russia

because it's done through a proxy. We

know that. But that's the nature of

fighting a proxy.

Uh, so anyway,

that's my take. Why not advertise these

things that you told us here? I feel

like nobody else knows about this.

>> We'll we'll try a little advertising and

see how it goes.

>> Congratulations, man. You have done so

much. People love you. People look up to

you.

>> Kevin Praath there, financial analyst

and YouTuber. Meet Kevin. Always great

to get your take.
