Trump would have honored Hitler and given someone’s country away to end the war with Germany.


The only "honor" the oaf deserves is the "Ignoble Piece Of Shit Prize."

He bows to his master...Putin.

Sounds like no one thinks this is a good deal for Ukraine. Apparently today some building was bombed killing 25 Ukrainians. I’m unsure of how many Ukrainians must die before a bad deal becomes a good deal? Or of course, facing the realization that Russia is stronger and can keep killing Ukrainians as they see fit? It doesn’t seem like the USA, or NATO, or other ‘good’ powers were willing to go all in to thwart Russia. This was true under the last administration as well.

Just googled it. 70,000 ish dead Ukrainians. How many more should die waiting for a better deal that may never come? It seems silly for us and the good guys to support Ukraine enough to slow its deaths and destruction, but not enough to end it.

Yowza. Googled Russian deaths. Over A QUARTER MILLION!

It doesn’t seem like that’s enough to deter Russia. What would be enough?


How did appeasement work out for Neville Chamberlain, Britain and Europe in the 1930s?

Give Russia Part of Ukraine now. Tomorrow they will want Moldova, then more of Ukraine, then Poland, then Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Zelensky is correct. There should be no reward for waging war.

Of course you are right. But if ‘the free world’ really cared we’d be at war with Russia, not deciding how many billions of dollars we will be sending to Ukraine. I just hate the waste of human life this stupid war has brought.

Then your hate needs to be 100 % towards Russia and it's geopolitical allies.

Putin likely just stringing Trump along. Keeping that carrot just out of reach but waving it around every once in a while. So, far. Putin has promised nothing except what favors Putin.

Putin is getting what he wants? Over a quarter million dead soldiers good for Russia how? Ukraine periodically making successful bombing strikes inside Russian territory is good for Russia how? Russia being sanctioned up the wazoo is good for Russia how? I’m not saying anything about this war is good for Ukraine, but you can’t convince me it has been good for Russia.

"Likely"? You win the internet for understatement.
Putin has no interest in, nor inclination to concede anything to trump. trump knows it and falls back to whining and griping and picking on Ukraine. Probably even blaming Biden and Obama.

'What Putin wants' is not the same as 'whats good for Russia'

Then all Putin needs to do for the good of his country, is pull back his troops to his side of pre-war border, ceded back all conquered territory, assist in demining all minded areas and negotiate a lasting and just peace with Ukraine. Ball's totally in his court. Instead, he wants to be like all the other Russian leaders before him and conquer territory, making enemies and not friends.

Putin is attempting to gather back the territories which left the USSR when it imploded.

Today Ukraine, tomorrow the Baltic states.

Not that the oaf cares...not that he is even AWARE of history...
