3:25Now PlayingPutin and World Leaders Have All Learned How to Manipulate Trump
Hawk discusses how global leaders like Vladimir Putin, Volodymyr Zelensky, and European heads of state have learned the art of manipulating Donald Trump. Drawing on recent meetings in the Oval Office and abroad, Hawk highlights how Putin used Trump’s obsession with the 2020 election to push familiar narratives about mail-in ballots and voting machines.
Hawk focuses on how Trump openly admitted being swayed by Putin, leading to renewed calls on Truth Social to eliminate mail-in ballots and voting machines. At the same time, Zelensky secured Trump’s attention simply by offering relentless gratitude and humor at the expense of reporters, while European leaders relied on flattery and patience.
The discussion points to a larger theme: Trump’s admiration for authoritarian rulers and his inability to recognize when he is being manipulated. Hawk explains why this pattern raises concerns not just for U.S. democracy but also for how America is perceived internationally.
By comparing Trump’s behavior to past presidents, Hawk underscores how easily Trump bends to the will of others when given compliments or reassurances. The conversation offers a clear picture of why foreign leaders find it so effortless to steer Trump in the direction they want.
