Former President Donald Trump employed an odd euphemism for the word"nuclear" when talking about Russia's attitude toward being a nuclear power.
Trump, who appeared Monday on Fox Business to talk about how he would pressure Russia to stop its war on Ukraine, said Russian President Vladimir Putin constantly used the"N-word" when they were both world leaders."But I listened to him constantly using the N-word," Trump said."That's the N-word. And he's constantly using it, the 'nuclear' word. And we never talk, we say, 'Oh, he's a nuclear power,' but we're a greater nuclear power.
Trump, a strong contender for the 2024 presidential election, told the Washington Examiner on Tuesday he was"surprised" by Putin's invasion of Ukraine, insisting that he believed Russian forces massing on Ukraine's border were simply"a tough way to negotiate but a smart way to negotiate.” Trump also claimed he has been"very, very tough on Putin," despite saying he"got along with him very well.
