Fox News host Laura Ingham asked former President Donald Trump late Thursday for his reaction to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the "pathetic display" of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky "imploring" Russian President Vladimir Putin not to invade his country, and the "defeated"-looking Ukrainian ambassador to the United Nations.
Trump said it was "very sad" then chastised Ingraham for telling him on air about "the amphibious attack by Americans" in Ukraine. Ingraham laughed and said no, it was Russians attacking, and U.S. forces going into Ukraine "would be news." "That's all we need," Trump said. "That'll be next, okay?"
