Bill O'Reilly here and I'm warming up. Stand by for the O'Reilly Update Morning Edition.

On this Monday, there are conservatives very angry with Donald Trump, even some MAGA people,

because Mr. Trump seems to be siding with the evil Vladimir Putin in the Ukraine war situation.

As you remember last week, President Trump said that Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, is a dictator.

And Mr. Trump put forth that the Ukrainians could have prevented the war

if they had been more reasonable in their negotiations before the shooting started. Now, I'm not

endorsing this at all one way or the other. I'm just telling you where we are. Mark Levin,

very prominent conservative radio guy, he is lambasting Donald Trump and people who are criticizing

Zelensky in Ukraine. Other conservatives are disappointed because they feel that bad Vlad is evil,

which he is. In fact, my upcoming book out in September, confronting evil, has Putin on the cover

alongside Hitler, Mao, and the Ayatollah Khomeini. But keep this in mind. Above all, it would be best for the world

if the war ended in Ukraine.

And that's what Trump's trying to do.

I don't think he's going to give away the store here.

I think this is all a posture to get bad Vlad to the table

and get this resolved. I hope I'm right back in a moment.

That is the morning O'Reilly update. More analysis later on.
