All well and good but I note your comments about trump needing to be “mindful”, changing his approach, flexing his muscles etc. the point you’re missing is that the man is an incompetent fool who doesn’t have the intellectual skill to consider the points you have rightly made. On top of that is the early self-evident cognitive decline that comes with his age.

America has a person at its helm who is incredibly self-absorbed and has the intellect of a primary school kid. The normative strategies you recommend are beyond him.

Reading this alongside today’s summit, the pattern is clear: the window for a meaningful ceasefire continues to move. The fact that European leaders rushed to Washington shows how much they want to anchor the talks before momentum slips away again.

Trump has the Epstein file and Putin has the Trump file.

Why else would an American president bow down to an enemy?

Trump has no interest in even learning about why Russian sanctions and weapons to Ukraine are needed against Putin. He has zero knowledge of Russia’s or Putin’s history, rise to power, suppression of media and freedoms, severe repression of Russian’s rights, and looting of the country for his own personal gain.He just wants a quick deal and a Nobel Prize. He’s an ignoramus.

Zelenskyy’s defiance meets Trump’s deal amid Ukraine’s NATO push, but Dan Bongino’s rumored FBI exit, election reform fears, & Rep. Nicole Collier stuck without a "permission slip" cloud peace.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then Putin is blackmailing Trump.

The reason the Sociopath in Chief has not transferred the frozen Rooskie assets to Ukraine is that Trump is still trying to figure out how to steal said assets.

You’re dreaming. The only reason Trump is dragging this out is from fear of looking weak on a widely popular issue in America. The European flattery campaign is probably confusing him too.

The reason he softened his stance on Ukraine in the first few months was to use it as leverage to drive a wedge between Iran and Russia, to coerce nuclear concessions and isolate them for an impending attack. He exacted his revenge on Iran and now he wants to clean his hands of this and sweep it under the rug.

Trump likes to talk up all the deals he signs, but you’re fooling yourself if you think he values the mineral deal over resuming friendly relations with Putin and restarting American business in Moscow. Trump loses nothing if the deal fails. Nothing is getting invested until they have peace, so Putin can hold the deal hostage indefinitely. If anything, Trump’s eagerness to develop real estate during his term in office might compel him to make even more sacrifices of Ukrainian territory, to hurry things along.
