The massive sanctions he's placing on Russian oil make that impossible to believe.
They're not favouring - they're even enforcing secondary sanctions on Russian oil on China and India, which is difficult and expensive.
The fact that you can divine pro-Putin things from his speech means nothing compared to him performing massively powerful economic action against Putin.
I think it is fair to separate putin and russia. I mean, I don't think he uses our society as proxy for his own ego. I think he really likes Putin.
The Trump administrations political positions are effectively a one to one match with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_Geopolitics which Putin aligns strongly with. Knowingly or not, Trump has been a tremendous asset to Russian geopolitics in every sphere.
You must be one of the few who still believes what Trump says to the media after nearly 100k proven lies.
Is that because there are no primary or secondary sanctions? Or are you just ignoring what I'm saying?
You are ignoring Trump literally adopting Russian proposals and demands in that war as they are. Trump and america flipped sides, seeing Russia as admirable peer and Ukraine as someone who should shut up and put up.
Trump want deals with russia to enrich himself. For that he needs Ukraine to loose. Bad thing is Putin does not have enough, he wants the rest of Europe too.
Those can also be explained by favouring usa/venezuela oil while still supporting Russian politics. For example: in the Ukraine war he is constantly seeking ways and arguments to support putins position even though he is one of the few leaders worldwide who do this.
