As the coronavirus tore through the world in 2020, and the United States and other countries confronted a shortage of tests designed to detect the illness, then-President Donald Trump secretly sent coveted tests to Russian President Vladimir Putin for his personal use.

Putin, petrified of the virus, accepted the supplies but took pains to prevent political fallout — not for him, but for his American counterpart. He cautioned Trump not to reveal that he had dispatched the scarce medical equipment to Moscow.

That's not afraid of being sick. That's insanity. Would you do that? I didn't act anything close to that even at the height of the pandemic.

Seems pretty in line with most narcissistic authoritarians. Rupert Murdock jumped the line to get vaccinated before the queen of England all while his media empire pumped out misleading propaganda downplaying the seriousness of the pandemic (and later demeaned the vaccine). It was widely reported that Trump required everyone surrounding him in the White House to be tested before being permitted to see him all while he downplayed the seriousness of the virus.

Brezhnev, Ghadaffi, Hitler, Kim, Pinochet, Stalin, and zedong all were paranoid of being overthrown and/or being killed. It’s sort of what happens when you become an autocrat. You commit enough horrible deeds and the throne of power becomes a prison of paranoia where everyone could be a potential cloak and dagger, threatening your reign. Putin experts have written at length that Ghadaffi’s sorry end, with him being mangled inside the sewer with a rod stuffed up his *** horrified him. The Arab spring lit a fire under him to act even more brutally to maintain power and avoid a similar fate. Shortly after the Arab spring, you’ll notice a strong crackdown on Russian domestic politics and an increase in Russian disinformation against the west.

DL;DR in other words, Putin is a paranoid guy and like all other autocrats (including Trump), really wants to stay in power. Showing strength is our only deterrent. Showing weakness by pandering to him only acts to embolden him. For far too long America and the west have pandered and accommodated to him. Give Ukraine everything they want to beat back those evil Russian forces.

trump denied this of course.

Then the Kremlin confirmed that trump sent the COVID tests to Putin.

When trump denied it his lips were moving so of course he was lying.
