Russian Official Reveals Kremlin Intelligence Assessment Calling Trump Thoroughly Unpredictable and Uninformed
"They said, Mr. Xi, the only thing we can say about Mr. Trump is that he's thoroughly unpredictable. He's not very well informed. His intelligence people, some of them seem to know which end is up, but he doesn't seem to listen to those. So we have to sort of agree with what Comrade Putin says and thinks and, and proceed very gingerly."
About this episode
Judge Andrew Napolitano hosted Ray McGovern and Larry Johnson on Judging Freedom to dissect President Trump's May 2026 Beijing summit and escalating global conflicts. Johnson revealed a White House source confirmed China flatly rejected Trump's plea for help extricating the U.S. from its failed Iran war, with Chinese officials telling Trump to "go pound sand." The panel detailed how China snubbed Trump with minimal protocol, sending only the vice premier to greet him at the airport while Xi Jinping immediately lectured Trump on Taiwan before any pleasantries. McGovern, citing intelligence sources, disclosed China and Russia both assess Trump as thoroughly unpredictable and uninformed, requiring careful handling to avoid erratic responses. The discussion turned to Iran's five non-negotiable conditions for any deal, including sanctions relief, asset return, Hormuz control recognition, reparations, and halting Israeli violence against Palestinians. Johnson warned Russia may now strike European drone factories with hypersonic Oreshnik missiles if those facilities continue producing weapons killing Russian civilians, a threat authorized at the highest Kremlin levels. McGovern predicted a full Russian offensive will end the Ukraine war by fall 2026, contradicting Western media narratives of stalemate. The episode also examined Ambassador Mike Huckabee's attacks on Tucker Carlson over Israel criticism and Marco Rubio's justifications for continuing the Cuba embargo despite mass starvation. Throughout, the panel criticized the absence of traditional diplomatic preparation, with no Sherpa negotiations preceding the Beijing summit, leaving Trump to improvise without substance.
