Trump 'will not give a penny to Ukraine' if he wins, Hungary's Viktor Orbn says
(snip)
He will not give a penny in the Ukraine-Russia war, Orbán told state media in Hungary on Sunday. Therefore, the war will end, because it is obvious that Ukraine can not stand on its own feet.
(snip)
Long seen to demonstrate deference towards and enthusiasm for Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, Trump recently suggested that if re-elected he would encourage Russia to attack US allies he deemed not to contribute enough to the Nato alliance.
Joe Biden has condemned such remarks, as dumb, shameful and un-American and has recently accused Trump of capitulating to authoritarian leaders.
(snip)
He views himself as a big guy, John Bolton, Trumps third national security adviser, told Sciutto. He likes dealing with other big guys, and big guys get to put people in jail and you dont have to ask anybodys permission. He kind of likes that.

Remember this is the guy who sent respirators and ppe to russia at the same time he was seizing shipments to states they had bought and paid for on their own.
We never did an accounting of where all that ppe and medical equipment went.
So you can bet that he will be opening our arsenals to russia, either directly or through third party transfers.
And they will be paying him directly for it.
