Trump's Leaked Audio Reveals Threats to Bomb Moscow, Beijing

A audio leak from a 2024 fundraiser reveals President Donald Trump claiming he threatened to bomb Moscow if Russia invaded Ukraine and Beijing if China moved on Taiwan. The recordings, uncovered by journalists Josh Dawes, Tyler Page, and Isaac Arnsdorf for a book on Trump’s 2024 campaign, capture him speaking candidly to donors in New York and Florida. Trump said he told Russian President Vladimir Putin the U.S. would “bomb the hell out of Moscow” and warned Chinese President Xi Jinping of similar consequences for Beijing if China acted against Taiwan.

In the audio, Trump boasted that Putin and Xi took his threats seriously enough—believing them “maybe 10%”—to hold back. He credited his tough talk with preventing conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, contrasting his approach with former President Biden’s. However, Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, casting doubt on Trump’s claims of deterrence. The recordings also show Trump’s frustration with Putin, whom he recently called out in a cabinet meeting for resisting peace talks, using blunt language to dismiss Putin’s stance.

Critics question whether Trump’s threats were genuine or effective, while supporters see them as bold negotiating tactics.
