Donald Trump was asked if he trusted Putin and his answer was the very essence of Trump every time he gets a question he doesn’t like

Donald Trump’s marked the 100 days since he returned to the White House with an extraordinary interview with ABC News correspondent Terry Moran in which the president was basically done all ends up.

Not that Trump will realise this – he presumably left the studio muttering what a great job, what the very best job he’d done.

And surely nowhere more was the absolute essence of Trump on display than in his resply to Moran’s question about whether he truly believed that Vladimir Putin wanted peace in Ukraine.

MORAN: You think Vladimir Putin wants peace?

TRUMP: I think he does, yes

MORAN: Still, even while he’s raining missiles?

TRUMP: His dream was to take over the whole country. Because of me, he’s not going to do that … you start hitting me with fake questions. You’re being… pic.twitter.com/pjRaLrNVmQ

And here is exactly what people made of that.

1.

“fake questions” is a new one.

This guy never stops whinging like a toddler. He’s got more political power than most world leaders in history, and all he can do is complain about the failures of his garbage peace deals, and the rare tough questions asked by fearful reporters.

If Terry Moran had gone back to the MS-13 tattoos just once more here, Trump totally would have pulled the ball bearings out of his pocket and started going on about the stolen strawberries. https://t.co/9xmf4rLARi

THIS is the type of person we need asking him questions. Everyone else wants to baby him and not hold him accountable. I love this

Trump – “Putin wants peace.”

2 seconds later…

Trump – “His dream is to take over the whole country.”

I feel like when Trump glitched out and spent an entire rally swaying aimlessly and playing music, we should have all been a little more curious. https://t.co/aQTeuIMIVc

Good for Terry when Trump doesn’t like the question he always screams. It’s unfair. He’s such a little girl.

So which is it bonehead? He wants to take the country over or he wants peace?
