A lot of USA claiming the war is over - praise be to Trump. I'm fully expecting Putin to make Trump look like an idiot and not agree to anything. Trump will then have to man up to Putin and show he is weak and bend over to him.

What is happening in the background with their pictures up like that?

Fucking weird at best.

Following on from where Trumpty Dumpty signed a deal with UKRAINE on minerals that are 80-90% in territory held by Putin…

Rory Stewart on 'The Rest is Politics' today suggesting Russia highly likely to throw more resources into sowing division in the west.

Why did he wait for Trump to come into power to end the slaughter?

Why Trump thinks Zelensky is weak is beyond me. Zelensky has beaten Trump policy at every turn.

Trump "thinks"?
That's cute 🥰

Yep. Zelensky not dumb

U.S. - still so ignorant of Ukraine and Canada

How is it a clever move if he had no choice?

onimasu.bsky.social•6 days ago

Because Trump believes his own lies. He thinks Ukraine doesn't want peace. By agreeing to a cease fire, it puts Trump and Putin in a bind. Will they follow through? Make a cease fire and break it?

No ceasefire will last as long as Putin and Trump are in charge! Never!!

I hate the Oligarchy Reich.
I want my Democracy back. Pass it on.

The question nobody seems to be asking of Trump, or Rubio, or any Republican legislator:

“Exactly how much Ukrainian territory occupied by Russia since its invasion do you think Zelenskyy should give to Putin in exchange for a promise of peace?”

Enough for the Russians to steal their mineral resources 😉

Don't tell Putin

I think Jonathon Powell probably deserves a lot of credit. I expect his experience in NI paid off. Everyone said that could never be ended but the Good Friday agreement even survived the B word!

Trump is one of those flash Harry card player on a Mississippi Steamboat that Lee Van Cleef or Clint Eastwood would love to play .. who has all the cards again ♠️♥️♣️♦️🇺🇦
