During an appearance on MSNBC this Sunday, the Lincoln Project's Tara Setmayer chewed up and spit out GOP Sen. Tom Cotton following his ridiculous revisionist history about Trump and Putin on Fox "news" earlier that same morning.
After playing the tape of a portion of Cotton's appearance on Maria Bartiromo's show, Setmayer reminded everyone that Trump was Putin's puppet, and not the tough guy that Cotton was making him out to be.
COTTON: But for four years when we had a Republican president who Democrats like Joe Biden accused of being in Vladimir Putin's pocket, and for some reason Vladimir Putin didn't invade Ukraine. It's because the only way to confront an aggressive autocrat like Putin or Xi Jinping is to show strength from the very beginning. That's the way to deter the kind of conflict that is likely about to happen in Ukraine.
CAPEHART: Tara, what's he talking about?
SETMAYER: Let's go back to the videotape, shall we? If it really means showing strength, means kissing the ass of Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping and Kim Jong-un, well then I guess that Donald Trump put America first.
It's asinine for him to even imply that. Do we need to go over all the dozens upon dozens of example of Donald Trump acquiescing to Vladimir Putin?
