GOP Strategist Interprets The Real Message In Trump's Reaction To Navalny's Death

"Donald Trump’s statement here is stupid, it’s self-serving, and it is wrong," Alice Stewart said on CNN.
Conservative CNN commentator Alice Stewart says Donald Trump’s comments about the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny demonstrate the former president’s fear of standing up to Vladimir Putin.
“Donald Trump’s statement here is stupid, it’s self-serving, and it is wrong,” Stewart, who has advised multiple Republican political and presidential campaigns, said during a CNN panel discussion Monday.
She added, “Navalny stood up to Putin. And now, with his death, there is no mistaking, there is no question, that Vladimir Putin has blood on his hands.”
“We’re seeing bipartisan comments from people on both sides of the aisle here in Washington that’s saying he is a bloodthirsty tyrant, and this type of behavior should not be tolerated. There’s one person responsible — it’s Putin,” Stewart continued. “And for Donald Trump to fail to acknowledge that, that just goes to show that he’s afraid to stand up to Putin.”
Following Navalny’s death in a Russian penal colony last week, Western political figures, including President Joe Biden and GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley, have held the Russian president responsible.
