No matter how many things Trump does that are hostile to Russia they will continue to call him a Russian asset. It's fascinating.

Because Trump didn't put tariffs directly to Russia, doesn't matter that it doesn't make any sense to tariff someone that you sanctioned instead you pressure the countries that trade with it.

And I guess they think the sanctions are just natural and there's nothing Trump can do about them.
