Trump is not a strongman—he’s weak when facing hostile authoritarians. His latest call was sycophantic, offering major giveaways before negotiations even begin. #MC2025 must be the beginning of a European riposte to Trump’s Munich. @fromtga.bsky.social 📝 - ThreadSky

Putin is up against Donald Trump, a Master Negotiator, the writer of The Art of the Deal, a strategic genius. The KGB trained spymaster is way out of his depth and on the verge of collapse.

Do you think "re-nuclearising" Ukraine should be on the table? Seems like a credible and just way of getting them a "security guarantee". Seems like the only way to get some modicum of justice for the failed Budapest Memorandum?

His persona as a great deal maker is fictional invention. His MO is usually to pay too much and ultimately stiff partners and creditors. He cannot help it he is a scorpion.

Negotiating with a colonising power that's happy to commit genocidal war crimes and ethnic cleansing can't be done from a position of weakness.

And yet that's what the West instructs the Palestinians to do.

Will the European public support fighting one coloniser whilst EU elites back another?

“Donald Trump’s appeasement of Vladimir Putin makes Neville Chamberlain look like a principled, courageous realist.”
Putin is at his weakest, lowest point of his career. Trump grants that loser incredible concessions while gaining nothing in return! This is how NOT to be successful in business.
