President Donald Trump accused his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Tuesday of talking "bullshit" about Ukraine, saying that the United States would send Kyiv more weapons to defend itself.

Trump's expletive reflected his growing frustration with the Kremlin leader over the grinding war that Moscow launched more than three years ago.

"We get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin, if you want to know the truth," Trump told reporters during a televised cabinet meeting at the White House.

"He's very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless."

1. Gee, almost like negotiating with Trump....mostly BS and bluster. Trump could sober Putin quickly...

Fully sanction all Russian fossil fuel exports (drop the $/barrel cap), along with countries receiving them and interdict the ghost fleet that transports much of the oil on the high seas and confiscate the oil and the ships. Can't do much about the pipelines that may feed China, NK and India but it would blow a huge hole in Russia's economic ship. Typical TACO moves so far. "Oh, geez, Putin won't listen to me....I'll dribble a couple artillery shells to Ukraine to keep the their noble dying going."
