A veterans group hammered Donald Trump as “Putin’s puppet” in an ad released Thursday, calling out the former U.S. president’s latest attack on the NATO military alliance.

Trump over the weekend said that he’d encourage Russia, led by President Vladimir Putin, to do “whatever the hell they want” to “delinquent” NATO members that don’t pay their “bills” — seemingly ignoring the fact that member countries don’t actually pay fees but instead promise to spend 2% of their gross domestic product on defense.

“Putin’s puppet is back with a vengeance and Republicans are marching in lockstep, following orders to strangle the freedom fighters in Ukraine, threatening to break the NATO alliance that’s kept the West safe, and encouraging Putin to invade our European allies,” began the narrator of the new ad, released by the VoteVets political action committee.

“Just ask the people of Poland, Finland and the Baltics whose borders are already under assault from Russia whether they trust Putin the way Trump does,” the narrator continued. “Ask the parents of American service members if they are ready to sacrifice their kids’ lives for Trump’s weakness.”

“Whatever happened to Republicans standing up for freedom? Whatever happened to Republicans standing up for America?” the voice-over concluded. “Now, it’s appeasement through surrender and blind loyalty to a Russian dictator and his puppet in chief.”

VoteVets works to get Democratic veterans elected to Congress.

The PAC repeatedly went after Trump during the 2020 presidential election, pointing to reports that he made derogatory comments about America’s war dead and more.
