Trump and his henchmen did not make "a deal" with President Volodymyr Zelensky and Ukraine over rare earth minerals. They engaged in extortion, part of their protection racket-style strategy to shake down an ally in the midst of a deadly conflict.

In less than two months, Trump has destroyed institutional stability, redesigned the executive branch, and removed military leadership, thus eroding any ability to resist authoritarian rule. If I see this so clearly, why don’t others? Where is the outrage? Where is our principal leadership? Resist!
I know Zelensky is in an impossible situation, but I really don't want him to "deal" with the orange sociopath. 🍊will stab him in the back & sell him to Putin in a heartbeat. I don't want that brave, decent man to end up like Navalny.
Zelensky should not trust anything from agent Krasnov. He will be treated the same way TFG treated small contractors he hired to work on his real estate projects. Like not paying them or paying way less of what was agreed after the work was completed.
I haven't seen the terms of the deal. New reports suggest that extortion was the first offer and Zelensky negotiated something closer to a win-win. When the details become known, we'll see.
They tried to do something like this right before the war. I think it was Rick Perry who took a couple of operatives over and signed some oil or gas contracts. They were later cancelled on the Ukrainian side for corruption and Rick resigned without a peep from US media.
This is disgraceful on every level. Everything is about money with this man! He has no soul, yet the Maggots think that he is the second coming of Jesus!
I don’t expect that Trump will provide any additional military or financial aid to Ukraine after this “deal” either. It’s simply a means for Trump to recoup the monies he believes Ukraine “owes” the U.S.
Trump is a liar, a cheat and a fraud and can not be trusted.

Add it to the list.
That said, I think Zelenskyy may be paying chess to Trump’s Candy Land/
So I’m thinking, peace deal acceptable to Ukraine, Zelenskyy resigns, new government tells Trump where he can stick his deal.

It's obvious now why Putin invaded in the first place.
