Did You Hear? I Doubt It

President Trump just approved the sale to Ukraine of a large amount of defensive weapons.  The Ukrainian army will use these weapons to fight against the Russians in the eastern part of Ukraine.  The Russians are sometimes called "Russian separatists" as if they were just Ukrainian citizens who want to have the country rejoin Russia like it was in the days of the Soviet Union.  Actually, however, the so called "separatists" consist of Russian troops in special uniforms that don't identify them as Russian.  It's an invasion of Ukraine by Russia that began during the Obama years and which got no response from Obama at all.

The weapons to be sold include anti-tank missiles.  The supposed separatists actually have tanks even though the Ukrainian army doesn't.  If you ever wanted proof that the separatists are actually Russian soldiers, these tanks are it.  Just think how many citizen uprisings come armed with tanks.  TANKS!!  In any event, the missiles will allow Ukrainian army forces to defend themselves against the tanks and even destroy most of the tanks.  It is a sale that will make the Russians furious.  The weapons will take away one of their main advantages over the Ukrainians.

So have you heard much about this sale?  I doubt it.  It has been covered just slightly by the mainstream media.  Nevertheless, it is an extremely important move by President Trump.

So why is the media so quiet about this?  Here's the reason:  for the last year, the media and the Democrats have told us that President Trump is a puppet of Vladimir Putin.  The story line (or, more precisely story lie) is that Trump sold out the USA to Putin so that he could gain election to the White House with Putin's help.  What Trump just did in regard to the weapons sales to Ukraine is about the biggest slap in the face possible to the Russians and their aggression in Ukraine.  No "puppet" would ever make such a move.  Publicizing what the President just did undercuts the entire Trump-Russia phony narrative that the media has been pushing for a year.  No wonder they don't want you to know.
