Victor Davis Hanson: Trump’s Message to Putin: You Blew It.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBFlfZ3Ec0I
Russian President Vladimir Putin is ramping up attacks on civilians, and Donald Trump just called him “crazy.” The Left is celebrating, claiming Trump has finally “seen the light.”
But Victor Davis Hanson says not so fast.
In this episode, Hanson explains what Trump is really signaling: that his strategy was always about making peace through strength — not appeasement. And now that Putin is throwing that opportunity away, the world sees who truly wants war.
“ I think what Vladimir Putin thinks, that he's going to continue the war; continue the terror campaign; get greater concessions from the Europeans, the Americans, and the Ukrainians; and move the battle lines a little bit to the west. And I think he's sorely mistaken. He's misreading Donald Trump.
“If I was Vladimir Putin, I would cut a deal today. And then, I would resume natural gas and oil shipments to Europe. I would open the economy back up. And I would tell the Russian people what you did. … And that's a lot better—it's not a good scenario, but it's a lot better than another Stalingrad or Verdun or Somme for the next two years for Russia.”
