I think Trump really wants to strike a peace deal in Ukraine...Both to stop the killing, the stupid spending and for his own personal glory.
Any POTUS would luv the personal glory, so the Don isnt alone in that at all.
The West should breathe a little easier after this post today:
“Based on the fact that Russia is absolutely “pounding” Ukraine on the battlefield right now, I am strongly considering large scale Banking Sanctions, Sanctions, and Tariffs on Russia until a Cease Fire and FINAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT ON PEACE IS REACHED,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“To Russia and Ukraine, get to the table right now, before it is too late. Thank you!!!” he went on.

Also, Zelensky posted this yesterday:
"Next Monday, I have a visit planned to Saudi Arabia for a meeting with the Crown Prince. After that, my team will stay in Saudi Arabia to work with our American partners. Ukraine is most interested in peace.
As we told @POTUS, Ukraine is working and will continue to work constructively for a swift and reliable peace."

All Moscow has ever needed to do was order a ceasefire and retreat, period. That's it. The very concept of Putin "wanting peace" after everything he's ordered for the last 3 years is the most bizarre, tweaked fairy tale I've seen in many years; though, to be fair, urging Iran's proxy puppets to "quit assaulting Jews/Israel" would have had a similarly simple improvement.
I'm glad that our embarrassment in the Oval Office is asking some accountability from Russia on things, but it's very little and very late. I wonder if his various appointees, including Rubio, dislike being made liars after openly calling out Putin's aggression for years...?

Definitely consistent, if horrifying:

"“Russia must be held accountable for its war of aggression,” European Commissioner for Justice, Didier Reynders said of ICPA's role last year.
“With the ICPA we ensure that no evidence is lost, in view to prosecute those responsible for the crime of aggression in accordance with international standards.”"
...and the orange stain will have no part of THAT against his BFF!!

Approaching a million dead, and you just put it down as "whining". You're on quite the roll, lately, surpassing even my dismal expectations for you...

“We have two leaders of two great countries who are very good friends and very focused on how we can strengthen the shared objectives and shared interests,” Gabbard said in an interview with India’s NDTV, portions of which were released Monday ahead of its broadcast.
Yeah, power mongering...massive lies...shameless manipulation...and flocks of human drones, believing whatever they're told. They have LOTS in common...!

You're truly fucking sick. Get the help you need, ASAFP.
I never said he attacked while the stain was in office, but given that our Oval Office embarrassment has basically been a cheerleader for his favorite mass rape/murder organizer, I find his fan club to be even more horrible than ever.
The GREAT America used to stand up against that kind of filth...but, redcaps would've cheered Stalin, it seems....

Okay since you're obviously a total tough guy on international dealings, how exactly should he stand up? How do we win the war? Lay out the game plan you have for a Ukraine victory without WW3? Or is WW3 part of the showing how tough we are strategy? Maybe just maybe you take a sideways step here and set it up for success going forward. But you obviously have something far more brilliant cooking in that beautiful mind you think you have. Lol

Seriously Z. Doesn't this Orange Boi nonsense ever get old. You used to spew endlessly the same about Trump abandoning NATO...well he looked pretty chummy with the NATO head last week...and more importantly, the Europeans are finally starting to step up and contribute to their own defense commitments. Again, all the attacks against Ukraine were under Obama or Biden...but all you can do is a lot of yabutts and try to turn it on Trump. Had Trump continued Obama's course...all of the Ukraine would have fallen. Those Stinger missiles authorized under Trump 45 are what pushed Russia back from Kyiv. This whole thing should have been dealt with immediately when Russia invaded Donbas and broke their treaty obligations...but Biden and the Europeans were too feckless to fight back. They figured a good "Don't" would work. They didn't engage with Russia in any way to try to end this conflict including militarily.
Trump is talking to Putin today. It can go one of two ways. Either Putin agrees to a cease fire and moves forward..or the US and Europeans impose maximum sanctions and pushes other Countries including the UN to do the same. Part of the reason for getting Zelensky to shut up with his defiance was to isolate Russia. Now..everybody can say they tried and Russia, the Aggressor, won't stop the killing. I expect that's the likely outcome of the call today but I may be surprised.
The reality is that Trump was harder on Putin than any President likely since Reagan. The sanctions crippled Russia until they were softened by the Europeans and Biden
The US and Trump can now look like they did everything possible to negotiate peace but were unsuccessful...opening the door for further action.
I get it Z. You want to go back to the Biden days. Where we talked tough...and did very little. The Russians are perfectly willing to fight a war of attrition under Putin. This is a war that Ukraine can't win. They're losing territory. All they can do is slowly die. They're already forcing conscripts into service. The brave and the willing are becoming fewer and fewer.
