Democratic Senator Chris Coons said President Donald Trump's communication strategy during the war with Iran is creating uncertainty among U.S. allies while potentially benefiting Russia, criticizing the president for speaking more frequently with Russian President Vladimir Putin than with Congress.
"President Trump gives answers out of both sides of his mouth in the same day, partly to influence oil prices, partly to keep our allies guessing," Coons said in an interview with MS Now. "I also think right now, the clearest winner from this war in Iran is Russia. It's stunning that President Trump is on the phone with Vladimir Putin and spending more time consulting with him than he is with Congress and the American people."
