Donald Trump actually said...

"I went in yesterday and there was a television screen. And I said, this is genius. Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine -- of Ukraine -- Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that`s wonderful."

"This is something that should have never happened. This would not have happened during my administration. And it`s a very sad thing for the world, for the country."

"This would never have happened. And you know what the response was from Biden? There was no response."

"I went in yesterday and there was a television screen and I said, this is genius. Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine -- of Ukraine."
