Apparently Trump didn’t know Pentagon paused Ukraine aid back in February. Reuters: U.S. military aid to Ukraine was paused in early Feb — not by Trump, but by Defense Secretary Hegseth. There was no presidential order. The White House and State Department weren’t informed
Seems like they are setting Hegseth up to take a few falls to consolidate blame.
donvict stopped shipments himself over two months ago, shortly after that meeting at the white house. src
So this is just trump gaslighting then. Or he really has that short of a memory.
I thought it would be Musk would be the first scapegoat. Öets see who'll finish the race first
Don't be ridiculous. Musk is part of the oligarchs controlling Trump.
Oh no! Poor Mr Hegseth has found himself to be the fall guy for the U.S. administration. That's the juicy reward of being a fascist and buddying up with even more powerful fascists, I guess.
The list of things Trump does know would be vanishingly short.
He seemed to know of the shipments being halted after he ordered them to be halted.
I heard that Hegseth was seen in some DC grocery stores in the early mornings, switching the price tags on eggs, making them more expensive
The difference between a unilateral decision that blindsided the cult leader and a coordinated decision where the messaging is supposed to divert any future blame away from the cult leader is easy: was the person supposedly at fault fired? No? Then it's all just talk, since the overall outcome nicely aligns with the policy goals of the red team.
Add it to the myriad other things Trump doesn't know.
