Rachel Maddow: Trump admiration for dictators reflects shared goal of power, control - Rachel Maddow - MSNBC

[Rhiannon12866]

Rachel Maddow looks at why dictators form alliances even when their respective countries have different political systems, and how the power greed they do have in common unites them against democracy, rule of law, and the United States of America. Given Donald Trump's stated appreciation for many of the world's dictators and his apparent interest in unchallenged power, it is not unreasonable to recognize his desire to join their little club. - Aired on 09/09/2024.

1. Speaking of the Trump love of dictators

The media refuses to call out Trump on Trump's worse offense. Ukraine.

A question the media must ask Trump in the debate tonight: "You (Trump) said repeatedly that Putin and you spoke about a Russian invasion of Ukraine years before it happened. Why didn't you warn Ukraine."

Trump i going to respond by saying, "I told Europe, they gotta pay, they are delinquent".

However the best way to get Europeans to spend more on defense is by informing them Putin and you spoke about a Russian invasion of Ukraine, and Trump denied them this information that would have better prepared Ukraine and Europe. While Russia was, for months, building up forces on the border of Ukraine, Ukrainian were denied the facts Trump knew that would have given Ukraine much better preparations.
