So Trump is cozying up with Putin so he can get personal deals done? Didn't the Dems already waste 4 years of our time with this? Reality is he wants this war to end, it costs too many lives and a crap load of tax payer money. Should we go back to the Biden strategy of just throwing billions at Ukraine only to see Russia taking over more and more property. As usual, Dems have zero solutions, it's all about saying Trump is not doing it right. Just ask a Dems and their answer is "I dunno, just not the way Trump is doing it."

Inter alia, 1,000+ dead and wounded Russians every day. Which is about a billion or two dollars of lost value to Russia a day, at the low dollar value of Russian lives. A war of attrition is an acceptable military strategy. It cost both the USSR (and the US) Afghanistan. Contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union.

This was a good enough strategy for Reagan but, unlike Trump, Reagan wasn't trying to figure out how much oral pleasure he could provide to the Soviet leadership.

You don't know what the Dems will do because you live in a bubble of hate.

Regardless I doubt there is any support for another Biden Presidency.

Just as there won't be any support for any more of Trumpy and his lies and hate after his term is over. If he actually survives it. Which is doubtful.

Trump like being the popular girl with the bad boys. From Fred Trump to Roy Cohn, Donald feels safe in the warm embrace of the bullies on the block. He just wants cruel Big Daddy to love him and make him feel special.

"President Trump, in an early morning Truth Social post Monday, slammed "FAKE POLLS FROM FAKE NEWS ORGANIZATIONS" that he said should be "investigated for ELECTION FRAUD."

But the president, naming surveys from ABC/The Washington Post and The "Failing" New York Times, along with the "FoxNews Pollster," called for outlets to be investigated, arguing they're "looking for a negative result."

Trump cited "Great Pollster John McLaughlin," of McLaughlin & Associates " a top Trump campaign polling firm."

"if they lied about covid....they lied about everything"

Right, that's kind of the idea here. Facebook was publishing lies about COVID. WH asked them to stop. FB stopped.

Out of all the attempts to smear Trump, this is the dumbest. Yes, Trump's statements on Ukraine align with Putin because they are REALITY.

1.) Ukraine CANNOT win the war - even Zelensky admits that now
2.) Kiev WILL NOT join NATO - that is also 100% true
3.) Zelensky is illegitimate - that is also true as seen by him cancelling elections

You liberals try so hard to paint Trump as pro-Russia that you have turned your party into warmongers. You should be embarrassed.

#49 | Posted by ScottS at 2025-04-28 10:44 PM

Ukraine CANNOT win the war

Why not? They seem to be doing just fine. The will of the Russian people is broken. Ukrainians just need to keep pushing back.

Kiev WILL NOT join NATO

Not as long as the Trump administration keeps blocking them.

Zelensky is illegitimate

Of course he is. Because your Russian sources said so.

#50 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-04-28 10:59 PM

You liberals try so hard to paint Trump as pro-Russia

"Ukraine CANNOT win the war

Even Zelensky admits it: "Zelensky Admits Ukraine Is Unable to Push Russian Troops out of Crimea and East"
georgiatoday.ge

"Kiev WILL NOT join NATO
Not as long as the Trump administration keeps blocking them."

Trump is president of: Germany, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Hungary? Because they ALL oppose Ukraine joining.

Zelensky Admits Ukraine Is Unable to Push Russian Troops out of Crimea and East"

What does that have to do with your statement, "Ukraine CANNOT win the war"?

Preventing Russian from advancing is a great way to win the war.

Trump is president of: Germany, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Hungary?

Read the article. Only four countries oppose the Ukraine. The United States being one of them. Poland and the Czech Republic aren't on that list.

all legitimate presidents cancel elections.

Again. You really should read your article:

"For the Ukrainians, the priority is to win the war and then have an election," explains Anton Hrushetskyi, the head of Kyiv's International Institute of Sociology.
"Therefore, they don't question the legitimacy of Zelensky."

Seems like the only people questioning Zelensky are Putin fan boys like you.

#53 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-04-28 11:43 PM

"Preventing Russian from advancing is a great way to win the war."

Well, freezing borders where they stand is the peace plan currently on the table - so, it appears you also agree with Trump and Putin.

"Read the article. Only four countries oppose the Ukraine."

Great, so you admit is it not because of the Trump administration as you first stated.

"Again. You really should read your article:
"Therefore, they don't question the legitimacy of Zelensky."
#53 | Posted by ClownShack"

Yes, cancelling elections and forbidding people to question your legitimacy is a great way to show you are legitimate.

#54 | Posted by ScottS at 2025-04-28 11:50 PM

Well, freezing borders where they stand is the peace plan currently on the table - so, it appears you also agree with Trump and Putin.

You seem to have a reading problem. Find another English to Russian translation app.

I never said freeze the borders. I said, preventing Russia from advancing. It's called a stalemate. Which in the long run will benefit the Ukrainians.

Great, so you admit is it not because of the Trump administration as you first stated.

It's absolutely Trump, well, Putin. He's pulling the strings on that orange puppet.

forbidding people to question your legitimacy

The only people questioning Zelensky are Russian puppets. Like you.
