The Fox News host gave the former president another chance to call the Russian invasion ‘evil.’ Trump failed again.
Last month, when Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was but a couple weeks old — and not nearing its second month — Sean Hannity did something he loves to do with Donald Trump: He gave him an easy question. It was a different kind of gesture, though: Instead of trying to make him look stronger than he is, Hannity gave him the chance to look decent. He repeatedly tried to get Trump to condemn Vladimir Putin. And Trump kept refusing. A month later, he gave him a Mulligan. And he still couldn’t do it. During a call-in on Wednesday night — during which the former president ranted again about one of his weirder pet obsessions: the idea that windmills are bad and kill bald eagles — Hannity circled back to the idea that the Russian invasion is “evil.” Hannity (again) tries to get Trump to condemn Putin. Trump won’t do it, and instead rants about NATO.
