Why would Putin spend time talking to Trump after Trump left office? Reportedly had multiple private phone calls.

As far as I know, this is totally unprecedented. And I can’t think of a plausible reason that isn’t very bad.

The NatSec secrets Trump stole, lies about, and wouldn’t return?

How to help win in 2024 and then give away Ukraine?
I do not doubt that Trump's conduct is nefarious, but would we be as concerned if these were conversations with former President’s Obama, Bush, or Clinton?
We wouldn't for the others, but whether we agree with decisions made by those former presidents, there's never any doubt that they at least served America. They also didn't abscond with boxes of classified documents and actively obstruct efforts to have them returned like Trump did. 🤷‍♂️
Understatement of the year.

I wonder if after he loses the election, Trump will try and excuse his actions with his dementia? 🤔
@ngrossman81. As outrageous as this story is, it's not all that surprising given that Orban and Netanyahu went to Florida to "visit" Trump.
