Chelsea Handler went on another unhinged tirade Monday, saying that America “is Russia” with President Donald Trump “running our country.”

“Putin is giving Trump talking points and actions to take to help undermine the very country he is from,” the 43-year-old comedian tweeted to her millions of followers.

“We have a domestic enemy running our country pissing on about allies who shows fealty only to Putin,” she added. “This is not America. This is Russia.”

The comments came in response to a tweet from one of her followers that claimed “Trump is a Putin puppet” after the president tweeted that the United States pays almost the “entire cost of NATO.”

“And add to that the fact that the U.S. pays close to the entire cost of NATO-protecting many of these same countries that rip us off on Trade (they pay only a fraction of the cost-and laugh!). The European Union had a $151 Billion Surplus-should pay much more for Military,” POTUS tweeted Monday following his meeting at the G7 Summit in Quebec.
