Donald Trump’s campaign has angrily denied the reports from Bob Woodward’s new book where he claimed that Trump secretly sent Vladimir Putin Covid tests during the pandemic while there was a shortage in the US. But Trump should have checked with his best friend before denying the story, because the Kremlin has now come out and CONFIRMED that Trump did the very thing he’s denying. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Well, this week, as I discussed in a prior video, Bob Woodward has a new book out called War. And in that book, he accuses the Trump administration based of course, on testimony from people that he spoke to that worked in the Trump White House. But he accused Donald Trump of sending vital and in short supply COVID-19 testing materials to Vladimir Putin at the height of the pandemic when the United States desperately needed those things. And as I mentioned in the previous segment, Trump campaign spokesperson, Stephen Chung, came out and adamantly denied that the White House did those things, even though he wasn't a part of it, of course. So he technically wouldn't know if they did or didn't. But anyway, he denied it. He viciously attacked Bob Woodward. And then what happened next was probably one of the funniest things I've ever seen throughout the entire history of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin's little love affair, because the Kremlin decided to come out and set the record straight, and they admitted that, yep, Bob Woodward got it right.
Donald Trump did in fact send us those COVID-19 testing materials at the height of the pandemic, which means the Kremlin, right? Vladimir Putin essentially came out and threw his good buddy Donald Trump, under the bus. Now, the Kremlin didn't have to say anything. That's the funny part. That's what is so hilarious about this to me, is that the Kremlin could have just said like, ah, we don't know. We don't care. Or No comment, go away. But instead, they went out of their way to say, Hey, by the way, Woodward's telling 'em the truth, and Trump is lying. We absolutely received materials from them, and it was great. Thank you.
This tells us a lot of things. Oh, and by the way, the Kremlin also did deny that Trump has spoken with Vladimir Putin seven times. And I don't know if it's because he hasn't talked to him at all, or maybe he's talked to him more than seven times, and the Kremlin's like that's way off. It was like 30, but either way, they deny it happened. But this shows us that this love affair between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin is not a love that is reciprocated. Trump may love Putin, but Putin doesn't love Trump. Putin just knows that Donald Trump is the kind of guy that he can easily take advantage of. He's the kind of guy who can be manipulated to do anything that Vladimir Putin wants him to do. And Putin knows, contrary to what Donald Trump has said, that he can go out there and publicly humiliate Donald Trump and his campaign, which is
What this statement is doing, and Trump's not gonna do anything about it. Right? Trump has been telling us for years now that if he were President Vladimir Putin never would've, uh, invaded Ukraine. He never would've launched a war over there. He wouldn't, he only waited till I was gone because he doesn't respect President Biden. Dude, you would've handed him the keys to Ukraine. You would've absolutely, probably sent us soldiers to go fight alongside the Russian soldiers to seize Ukraine, because Putin can manipulate you that badly. And then in your last hour when you needed him the most, you needed them to just say, no, we didn't get Covid tests. He came out and threw you under that bus because he wanted to show the world how little respect he actually has for you. And to show the world that that love you have for him is definitely not reciprocated.
