Not going to happen. MAGA is pro-Russian and pro-fascist and they are currently big on the lie that Trump is a man of peace.
Aside from that, most of these GOP politicos are little more than cowards attempting to plot their way through the Trum regnum such that they can still die rich and of old age.

Putin's DNA receptacle is always on all fours when dealing with his Moscow superiors.

Unfortunately, Putin is the only one able to keep Trump and his psychopathic Christian nationalist and Zionist enablers from starting WWIII in the ME.

Unlike Biden Trump will tariff the hell out of Russia. We never even saw Biden trying to negotiate a peace deal, he just kept throwing money at the military complex.

I got a few questions on that. Let's start with the basic one, first: Who pays those tariffs?

There only needs to be ONE peace deal. Russia needs to get the hell out of Ukraine. Then there will be peace.

Putin is frightened of tariffs?
Jeez. You don't live in this universe.

Probably because Biden used Sanctions.
A tariff is something you place on commodity you import from trade partners.
What exactly do we import from Russia?
Other than wives for Trump?
FishPawn, I'm not too sure how, but you seem to get dumber, every day.

Wonderful! And should TrumpCo actually grow/rent/buy himself a spine and stand up to his Russian master(s), no doubt we'll finally see the Damoclesian kompromat Vlad's been holding over Trump's artfully-quaffed head all thes years. Perhaps I should dig out the popcorn I squirreled away for just this occasion.

They are tariffs placed on other countries that buy products from Russia like oil and grains. It's complicated so don't bother researching it.

So you are saying Biden used sanctions, good. Trump using sanctions, bad.
And you are right, I get dumber everyday reading your posts.

Trump is gonna suck Putin's dick like the whore he is.
FishPawn will be there waiting to wipe his mouth for him.

You're saying Trump is planning on sanctioning Russia?
That's the first I'm hearing of such news.
Perhaps the discussion you're referring to occurred in your fantasies of me.

Thanks for answer the question on tariffs, though indirectly. You think tariffs and sanctions are the same thing! lol!

I was actually wondering about that when he claimed we had discussed sanctions.
FishPawn is a ------- moron.

"We have seen sporadic threats by Trump to impose some kind of economic pressure on Russia but they never last long," said Giles, adding it would be a "radical departure" from his past approach towards the war if Trump were to impose pressure on Moscow, rather than on Kyiv.
"We do not know if this threat is empty, but the previous ones have been, and Putin knows that," Giles said. www.aljazeera.com

Oh man. Sorry I didn't watch your favorite morning talk show.
Let me guess. You follow it up with the gals on the view?
Trump's bark is worse than his bite.
Unfortunately, you idiots love big talk no action.

#25. We can all agree that Truman's biggest mistake was not using America's nuclear monopoly to vaporize Russia in 1945. The world would be a safer, better and richer place if he had.

Trumpf wants to bomb Iran to please Bibi Netanyahu, Muhammad Bin Salman, and America's legion of Islamophobes, but Iran is a crucial ally and trading partner of Russia, so Putin won't like that. Trumpf is beholden to Putin and must please his KGB handler. So, how does Trumpf square this circle? A kabuki dance and humble-mumble-chumble answers from the Dotard at press conferences. The net result will be what Putin wants for Ukraine and limited strikes on Iran. Meanwhile Dotard Trumpf and USSECSTATE Marco Rubio won't say a darned thing about the mass slaughter in Gaza or the unwarranted fascist arrest of Erdogan's political rival in Turkiye.

yeah, NO we can't
But the idea of backstabbing an ally says more about the stabber than the stabbee.

The most significant US import from Russia is fertilizer. Nothing like a 1-2 punch to farmers...making their crops less desirable to foreign purchasers AND increasing their costs.
The business jenius already wants socialism payments to the farmers to compensate them for the tariffs and lost sales to USAID.
Soooooo much winning
