Trump calls Sen. Murphy ‘unattractive,’ ‘stupid’ after criticizing Putin summit

President Donald Trump fired off insults toward Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., in a Sunday post on Truth Social in response to the senator’s criticism of his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The president described Murphy as “very unattractive (both inside and out),” “stupid,” and “a lightweight,” after the senator claimed “Putin got everything he wanted” during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Murphy also described the meeting, which was held in Alaska on Friday to broker peace between Ukraine and Russia, as “a disaster,” “an embarrassment for the United States” and “a failure.”

Murphy shared a clip of his appearance on his X account, captioning the video with more criticism of Trump’s meeting with Putin.

“The Putin-Trump meeting was a disaster, as predicted. Putin got everything he wanted: a photo op legitimizing his war crimes, no ceasefire, and no sanctions or new weapons for Ukraine. Trump’s goal was to keep Putin happy. He succeeded,” Murphy wrote.

Trump pushed back, asserting in his Truth Social post, “The very unattractive (both inside and out!) Senator from Connecticut, Chris Murphy, said ‘Putin got everything that he wanted.’ Actually, ‘nobody got anything,’ too soon, but getting close. Murphy is a lightweight who thinks it made the Russian President look good in coming to America.

“Actually, it was very hard for President Putin to do so. This war can be ended, NOW, but stupid people like Chris Murphy, John Bolton, and others, make it much harder to do so,” he added.

ZELENSKYY ARRIVES IN WASHINGTON, DC FOR TRUMP MEETING, URGES LASTING PEACE WITH RUSSIA

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and seven European leaders will meet with Trump in Washington, D.C. on Monday to continue seeking an end to the Russia-Ukraine war.

“Big day at the White House tomorrow. Never had so many European Leaders at one time. My great honor to host them!!!” Trump said in a separate Sunday night post on Truth Social.

In a third post on Sunday, Trump said Zelenskyy “can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to, or he can continue to fight.” 

Trump continued, “Remember how it started. No getting back Obama given Crimea (12 years ago, without a shot being fired!), and NO GOING INTO NATO BY UKRAINE. Some things never change!!!”
