The Congressman from Texas joined us Monday on “TMZ Dwell” and we requested him about Trump and J.D. Vance‘s heated trade with Zelensky final week.

Hunt says Trump’s proper that Russia is profitable the warfare in Ukraine and strongman Vladimir Putin holds all of the playing cards … and the US cannot hold giving Ukraine a clean verify to combat the Russians.

The Oval Workplace showdown, which was all on digital camera, supplied a peek into the tense negotiations right here — and Hunt says Trump is attempting to dealer deal to finish the warfare, regardless of if people like his negotiation techniques or not.

Hunt says Trump is not taking Russia or Ukraine’s facet right here … claiming POTUS is on the facet of peace and stopping extra demise … one thing he can admire as a fight veteran.

Factor is … Trump’s asking Zelensky to make lots of concessions for a ceasefire and we have not heard a lot about what the Prez is asking Russia to concede. So we pressed Hunt about that too.
