Trump deflects on Russian strikes with whataboutism
Asked about Russia hitting 6 Ukrainian energy sites yesterday, Trump's answer: "Well, Ukraine hit many sites the day before."
That's not evidence. That's a distraction. When pressed on Russian actions, he pivots to what Ukraine did. Standard play: muddy the record, make it sound equivalent, pretend the scale doesn't matter.
Ukraine's energy strikes are retaliatory. Russia's are the pattern. But Trump treats them like a moral scorecard where both sides cancel each other out. They don't.
