Trump Advisers Concede Ukraine Peace Deal is Months Away

Thursday, January 16, 2025

Advisers to President-elect Donald Trump now concede that the Ukraine war will take months or even longer to resolve, a sharp reality check on his biggest foreign policy promise - to strike a peace deal on his first day in the White House.

Remember when trump said he could end the war in Ukraine in just 24 hours? LOL. Promises made, promises broken. As usual.

Is there anything is he doesn't lie about? Haven't we settled that issue?

So, keeping score:

- Grocery prices are not going to come down
- Border is not going to be sealed
- The Columbia River (giant faucet) is not going to be diverted to Los Angeles
- Ukraine war is not going to end

Yea. But. Trans people will have their rights stripped from them.

That a huge win for MAGAts.

Don't forget about the women.

They got a little uppity after they got the vote and so had to be put back in their place, too. And they have to be held there for the next four years. So they learn their places. Nekked barefoot pregnant and in the kitchen where they belong and like The Good Lord intended.

He also isn't lowering grocery prices or cutting $2 Trillion from the budget.

Promises made, promises broken.

Translation: There is no peace deal, only "concepts of a plan."
Quelle Surprise!

And to think the press excoriated Harris up and down throughout the fall for "not enough specifics"! She should have lied like The Dotard, that would have pleased the Trump Party, I guess.

@#6 ... Promises made, promises broken. ...

Wasn't "Promises made, promises kept" something that Pres-elect Trump said during his victory speech after the election results were announced?

LOL. You are admitting that the current administration is so bad that their failures should already be fixed by the next administration that isn't even in office yet. And now you are complaining that Trump may take 2 months to end the war in Ukraine that was started when Biden took office and he couldn't end in 4 years.

I like the - Trump should have done something about the California fires and the war in Ukraine before he even takes office - attitude of the democrats. They know its fucked up, but want it to be undone immediately. Forget the fact that Rumpelstiltskin slept through 4 years of office.

What peace deal?
In about a week the new defense and intelligence poobahs in the Court of Dotard II will collectively declare that Ukraine is bad, they attacked our peaceful Russian allies, we will no longer support this rogue nation and failed state, and that the Russians can do there what they want. News footage of anything happening in Ukraine will be banned in the US, because there is no war, so no war footage to show to American taxpayers.

Of course, the world will cry out against the US, our former friends in Western Europe will continue to support the Ukrainian people and its military, and the Ukrainian Armed Forces will fight to the last. Then the Russians will take over, subjugate the people, and crush all resistance. And King Dotard II will smirk when he next bows to his master Vlad.

Peace deal--pah!

China and Mexico are NOT paying the tariffs.

Greenland, Canada and the Panama Canal will not become the US.

You're such a strange man.

Donald was caught lying again, or perhaps in some paranoid delirium, about ending the war in Ukraine and you just refuse to admit that he was being a loud-mouthed sumbitch.

Nothing new about that, of course.

In regards to Donald "fixing things". Um, how well did he do the first time around? I sort of remember mass graves and mass impoverishment.
