Vindman: Trumpā€™s NATO threat likely a ā€˜contributing factorā€™ in Navalnyā€™s death - eviltoast

Retired Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman argued that former President Trumpā€™s recent comments about NATO are likely a ā€œcontributing factorā€ in the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny.

ā€œDonald Trump invited Vladimir Putin to attack NATO. I would say that that probably was a contributing factor in the calculus around the assassination of Navalny,ā€ Vindman told MSNBCā€™s Michael Steele Friday.

Vindmanā€™s comments come just a week after Navalny died in prison. The Biden administration has blamed Russiaā€™s government for the death, but Russia has said he died of natural causes.

    I wish you good luck in coming up with any reasonable explanation as to how this contributes in any significant way.
