Trump Keeps Running Interference For Putin
Our addled, corrupt, and ailing leader continues to insult the people of Ukraine, Europe, and The United States of America
Evening all. Shocker! No agreement in Mar-a-Lago tonight…….
A few notes, with more tomorrow.
No American greeted Zelenskyy when he arrived in Miami last night.
When Putin came to America he got a red carpet, a joyous Presidential greeting, and a bestie’s ride in Trump’s armored limo.
Before the meeting with Zelenskyy Trump spoke to Putin for two hours (!!!!!!!!), and described his conversation with the mass murderer of Moscow as “good” (no condemnation for Putin’s starting of the war, the brutal assault on Kyiv yesterday, or the continued attacks on civilian targets. Boys will be boys afterall…….):
Stephen Miller and Jared Kushner were at the negotiating table today. No actual experts on Russia or Ukraine on our side of the table.
Trump and Zelensky had a press conference where both sides committed to keep working. Throughout the run up and the event today Trump and his team continued to repeat outlandish Russian talking points….
Listen to Trump here. The man negotiating the fate of the West is clearly unwell and delusional. Trump: “It’s funny, I settled 8 wars. Some were going on for 35 years. And we got them settled in a couple of days. Some of them -- one was going on for 37 years. I settled it in one day. But this is a very complex one” (Via Aaron Rupar)
Listen to Trump here. The man negotiating the fate of the West is clearly unwell and delusional. Catch Zelenskyy’s facial expressions when Trump claims Putin wants Ukraine to succeed and is willing to help with reconstruction:
Here’s that question again with a close up on Zelenskyy:
For further background here’s my post from yesterday:
"Putin Is A Ruthless Murderer Who Has No Interest In Peace And Cannot Be Trusted"
Morning all. Have a few things for you on this Saturday, all involving the deep disquiet of Trump’s mind and his worsening madness during this time of the “festival of lights” and “peace.”
As expected it was a farce as Trump continues to create space for Putin to keep killing Ukrainians and threaten Europe.
More tomorrow - Simon
Stephen Miller’s expression always makes me think he has been spending his free time digging up graves.
Trump and the Republicans have treated Zelenskyy horribly and have caused thousands of deaths. Russia does NOT want Ukraine to succeed . What nonsense. Putin started this war and he and Trump want the resources only. Period.
