Sen. Ben Sasse Issues Warning Ahead of Trump Summit: 'Putin is a Murderer'

Source: Mediate

Ahead of President Donald Trump‘s highly anticipated meeting with his Russian counterpart, Senator Ben Sasse issued a warning: Vladimir Putin is a murderer.

Trump is set to meet one-on-one with Putin in Helsinki on Monday, and the summit is fraught with tension: is comes after Special Counsel Robert Mueller‘s indictments this week alleged that the Russian government hacked Hillary Clinton‘s campaign and the Democratic party to meddle with the 2016 election. The U.S. president doesn’t seem to care much: on Sunday he congratulated Putin on throwing “one of the best” World Cups “ever”.

Sasse, a Nebraska Republican, took to Twitter ahead of the meeting to remind everyone who Putin is.

You damn well better dig in and take a stand for America - on the Special Prosecutor, the Supreme Court nominee, and more. You are needed to be an American. Take a stand against Dirty Donny, your republican party's ignoble, deceitful, and treasonous Draft-dodger-in-Chief.

Just like the few others that toss out a few mild criticisms, but then votes for all of the traitor's policies.

Peace

While trump attacks the USA instead of putin and russia. Isn't it obvious enough yet to admit trump is committing repeated acts of treason against all of us . He knows they are attacking us now, yet praised putin still then attacked our country again. Even his followers have to realize trump is putins puppet, just like Hillary said he was, and its very obvious now who he works for, putin. Everything he's done is to undermine this country for putin, and they're winning.
