Bernard Goldberg, a political analyst and journalist, recently criticized President Donald Trump, stating that his closeness to Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, and his stance on the Ukraine war could harm U.S. interests. Goldberg believes that this type of diplomacy not only undermines American values but could also damage the relations between the two countries.
