President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa made a harsh statement about US President Donald Trump. In his opinion, the American leader is “objectively a Soviet or Russian agent,” reports Euronews.

“The supreme leader of the world’s largest superpower is objectively a Soviet or Russian asset,” said de Sousa on August 27 during a speech in Castelo de Vide.

Trump’s efforts to present himself as the main mediator in reconciling Ukraine and Russia did not make a good impression on the Portuguese president. De Sousa noted that Trump’s attempts to “settle” the war were not beneficial for Ukraine.

    It’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?

    I mean, for a lot of actions that Taco does, even for conservative dipshits, how is he actually helping this country? Sure he gives cons rock hard erections when they round up the brown people and human traffic them to concentration camps in other countries.

    But how is that helping?

      Probably in fact, too.

      The only reason to be skeptical is that rump really is that stupid to be of any actual use.

    I think Trump is a defacto Russian agent. Trump works in his own self interest. He’s just not very smart. Putin and Americans in his administration that have his ear have convinced him to do things that Russia wants but Trump thinks he’s doing it for himself.

    Trump believes his own and others’ bullshit. I think he genuinely doesn’t understand why Putin isn’t giving him a deal on Ukraine.

    Trump is a real life Manchurian candidate.

    You may be saying “we’ve known this all along”, but remember: this is Portugal’s top diplomat; it takes a lot of guts to say this, considering that Trump is especially vindictive. Also, Marcelo has already won a handshake battle (video in Portuguese) against Trump in 2017, LOL.

    He is correct. It’s obvious. The people who still support Trump are in a cult. They are mainlining the koolaide.

    Mr. de Sousa is SPOT FUCKING ON! Someone on Lemmy posted a photo of Krasnov shaking hands with Gorbachev and shortly afterwards there advertisements with “Disband NATO” all over the USA all paid for by the orange fuck himself.

    Yeah, I have been imagining recently if I am a public figure, I would run out of patience on Trump myself, especially with revelations on how serious the Trump regime really is on acquiring Greenland. Tariffs be damn. Bring it on.
