OK, this is a joke! If you've been paying any attention at all since the 2020 election you know that Trump brings it up all the time at campaign rallies, interviews, talk shows, and other speaking events. This is just another, of countless, Trump lies.

The press doesn't "hate" to write about it. The press doesn't write about it because it's history and a "Big Lie." The election wasn't "rigged" and it wasn't "stolen", not even one percent. Trump has no proof, let alone "massive" proof. All he has are the same old regurgitated conspiracy theories that have all been proven false.

Trump is placing the blame for all the deaths in Ukraine on a "rigged" election, not on Putin. What he's really saying is that if he had been elected instead of Biden, the entire Russia/Ukraine situation wouldn't have happened.

Here's what Trump said two months ago at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida on February 26:

Under our administration [when Trump was president] Russia respected America just like every other country respected America, but now Joe Biden is seen as weak. As everyone understands, this horrific disaster would never have happened if our election was not rigged and if I was the president.

NO, not "everyone" understands or believes what Trump said.

NO, the 2020 election was not "rigged."

NO, not all Americans believe that the Russian invasion wouldn't have happened if Trump had been reelected.

True to form, Trump talks as if it what he is saying is fact. Objective reality says that no one knows for sure if Putin would have invaded Ukraine if Trump had been reelected. Trump lives in his own little fantasy world - a world that bears little resemblance to objective reality.

I doubt that Trump spent any time reading the televised address Putin gave on February 21, 2022 (just three days before the invasion began) or the televised address Putin gave on February 24, 2022. If he had, he would understand that Putin believes that Ukraine is still, rightfully, part of Russia, and that Putin is "hell-bent" on restoring as much of the old Soviet Union as possible, regardless of the fallout, and regardless of the sitting U.S. president.

Even if what Trump says was true, Putin was going to invade Ukraine at some point in the near future anyway. That's crystal clear from what Putin said in his speech and his address.

This is nothing but Trump, again, putting his egotistical "I'm the only one who can fix it" mentality on display.

Yes, Putin and his regime have used the nuclear word recently, but how would Trump know how often Putin uses it? If Putin did use it "all the time" as Trump said, The White House, the State Department, the Defense Department, and Congress would be "up in arms" and we would be all hearing about it on the daily news, "all the time."

"Far more powerful?" More powerful, perhaps, but what if you add China to the mix? China is closely aligned with Russia and a U.S. attack on Russia has a high probability of starting World War III with Russia and China as allies. Then who's more powerful? Trump's "power talk" is just that - talk, and bluster, and he would do himself and the rest of the world a huge favor by not spouting off like this.

Trump says "...there would be no Russia..." And why is that? Because the U.S. would obliterate the entire country with nukes?

In another part of this interview Trump said that it's a "no-no" to talk about nukes, but that's what he seems to be implying in his statement.

You're not going to get Putin to back down with verbal threats. Like Trump, Putin is a very unpredictable and dangerous man. Even though Trump isn't president, he was president and he shouldn't be making statements like this, especially given the fact that he might be president again.

As I've said many times before, Trump "made his own bed" with the media a long time ago. If you're going to lie and threaten democracy as we know it, like Trump has, then you have to face the consequences.

If you want to know what it's really like to live in a communist country, I suggest you go live in China or North Korea for a while.

NO, wrong, just another Trump lie. Trump has no proof, just theory and conjecture.

This isn't the first time I've read about Trump calling someone a "fool" for not believing his "Big Lie." It's laughable, really, and it shows just how much of a "fool" Trump is. But, as I've said before, Trump's massive ego has to perpetuate the lie so that he doesn't have an "ego meltdown" and admit that he lost to Biden.

Another Trump lie. Pence was strong and did what he was supposed to do according to the U.S. Constitution.
