Vile words of Trump regarding Alexei Navalny's death
4:12 PM EST, February 20, 2024
Donald Trump is known for his disgraceful remarks about many things, but this time, he is dancing on the grave of the victim murdered by the totalitarian regime of Putin. Besides, he is not capable of seeing anything apart from his own tip of the nose.
During his presidency, Donald Trump was known to have accepted and admired Vladimir Putin. For instance, he refused to admit Russia's intelligence influence on the 2016 presidential elections, denying the reports of the U.S. intelligence services. This time, he did not say anything about Puitn's responsibility for Alexei Navlany's tragic death. Instead, he has written as follows...:
The sudden death of Alexei Navalny has made me more and more aware of what is happening in our Country. It is a slow, steady progression, with CROOKED, Radical Left Politicians, Prosecutors, and Judges leading us down a path to destruction. Open Borders, Rigged Elections, and Grossly Unfair Courtroom Decisions are DESTROYING AMERICA. WE ARE A NATION IN DECLINE, A FAILING NATION! MAGA2024
It is unclear how such connections have been made in his inside discourse, and it is unclear if he understands the meaning of the death of the leading Russian oppositionist, but, hey, who of his supporters cares?
Donald Trump is trying to make as much political use of any situation that comes to his hands, and he does not seem to stop against most delicate and tragic instances. The instrumental use of Alexei Navalny's death is among his ugliest, most cynical, and shameful ones. Time is going to show if he is going to show more support for the actions of the Russian dictator. It is worth mentioning that he recently said that he is going to 'encourage' him to attack NATO allies if they have not paid enough for their armies.
Nikki Haley, Trump's political opponent inside the Republican party, has criticized him for not mentioning Putin alongside the information about Navalny. On Sunday, she also declined to affirm voting for Trump, supposing he wins the Republican nomination. Conflict between the Trumpists and non-trumpists in the Republican Party is escalating.
On 16 February 2024, the Federal Penitentiary Service announced that Navalny had died at the prison in Yamalo-Nenets in Western Siberia after taking a walk and feeling unwell that morning. He reportedly died at 2:17 p.m.
