Trump Again Pushes Wild Claim Of Russia Invasion Happening Because Of A 'Rigged Election'

Former President Trump once again pushed his wild claim that Russia invaded Ukraine because of a “rigged election” during his speech at CPAC on Saturday night.

After accusing President Biden of “turning calm into chaos” and “competence into incompetence,” Trump called Russia’s attack on Ukraine “appalling” and “an atrocity that should never have been allowed to occur.”

The former president then praised Ukrainians for being “brave” before baselessly claiming that the invasion never would have happened if the 2020 presidential election wasn’t “rigged.” (There is still no evidence of widespread election fraud in the election Trump lost.)

“As everyone understands this horrific disaster would never happened if our election was not rigged and if I was the president,” Trump said. “Very simply it would not have happened.”

I'm sure Putin told Trump he was invading for him and being the simpleton he is he believed him.

Just a few days ago he was praising Putin's brilliance, now he's got the balls to claim support for Ukrainians and suggest it "wouldn't have happened if I were president". GFY Donnie. We all know what would have happened if you were president. When is he going to finally be shut up by someone for all of his crap he spews???

And the Republican switch to supporting Putin thanks to Trump also encouraged Putin. Putin's reminding me more and more of the Trump Taj Mahal investors. Putin built up Trump hoping he could use Trump to subvert Western Democracy. It ain't working. Putin's gonna have some angry oligarchs inviting him to a toga party. Trump's about to be flushed down the toilet of history.
