“If they made a bad deal it would’ve been much better. They would’ve given up a little bit and everybody would be living and every building would be built and every tower would be aging for another 2,000 years.”
Just a little appeasement, what would go wrong. Of course I can believe he's fully unaware that Ukraine tried that twice already in the Minsk agreements.
I wish someone would demolish his old fascist ass.
I am flabbergasted. Who would have thought that a man with decades long ties to Russia, who's met with and spoke highly of Putin, who had russian spies crawling all over his first presidential campaign, who's backed by russian oligarch money, would say such a silly thing about Ukraine.
They're planning an offensive that has moscow scared enough they are rattling their nuclear sabers. Seems like a poorly thought out move for a "destroyed" country and that their hegemonic buddies would advise them against rather than helping them tool up for the fight.
I WONDER WHY ITS DEMOLISHED, MAN IF ONLY WE KNEW.
jokes aside, this is to be expected from trump, nothing less from him is expected.
Guys, I’m starting to think this trump fellow is a goddamned fucking moron whose evil is not limited to sexual assault and fraud.
he is a dumb man. he is a dumb man, i know him. i can tell you surely he is an excellent idiot. great idiot. bigly.
I know you're kidding but... Starting?
ok ya got me. (/s)
I think Trumps brain might be demolished, would you agree?
I’m shocked, I tell you, just shocked.
Saw this just after reading the post about Russia knocking out Ukrainian citizens' ability to heat their homes this winter.
Any tankies wanna weigh in on why this is acceptable?
It's making big sense lately why tankies LOVE trump so much.
He supports their favorite dictators very well.
I hope all the tankies and "genociders" will vanish after november so we can have normal discussions.
The worst thing about genocide is how it prevents internet liberals from shitposting in peace.
Voting trump won't stop it. Voting kamala won't stop it. Voting third party won't stop it. Widespread protests won't stop it. But go ahead and explain how we're all culpable regardless.
Widespread protests could stop it.
Just not by relatively small numbers of unarmed college students.
Widespread protests got us...
Checks notes
4 cops prosecuted for an obvious murder. Not quite ending genocide level, but good luck rising up with the masses.
Trump more and more desperate for those Russian funds. Probably gets $1 million for each Ukraine/Zelensky diss.
And he'll still get up in front of Americans and claim he's not taking the side of the most belligerent enemy of democracy on this planet.
Trump always sides with himself.
Concerning whatever this felon awaiting sentencing might say, recall that the opposite is true.
Slava Ukraini!
I just refuse to listen to a chronically lying fat fuck who shits himself on the regular
He's way too deep in bed with Russia, and has been since the 90s if not earlier, to ever be taken seriously. How the fuck he wasn't disqualified and charge over election interference and acting as a foreign agent in 2016 is beyond me.
He'll say the same to Taiwan, too
I mean, only if that's what Xi writes on the check's memo line.
Ukraine may be in rough shape, but no real fire fighter would stop trying to put out a fire at a burning house. There is always something to save.
If Trump is elected, the USA would also be demolished, but you should not give up the entire country.
Trump laid blame for the conflict on President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democratic rival in November. He said Biden “egged it all on” by pledging to help Ukraine defend itself rather than pushing it to cede territory to Russia.
“Biden and Kamala allowed this to happen by feeding Zelenskyy money and munitions like no country has ever seen before,” Trump said.
Why didn't he resolve the conflict during his presidency?
Or we also believe him that it didn't exist when he was president? His first impeachment was for blocking already approved aid.
He thinks it all works on respect. That Putin wouldn't have done it because of respect.
I think just the opposite. he won’t say it directly but if you put all the pieces together he's saying we shouldn't care about ukraine and he would have just let Russia take it. That's probably why Putin decided to strike while trump was in office.
Two different things. He, like mob bosses, demand respect and all that.
And he doesn't care about Ukraine. So he'll serve it up on a platter.
It's great when his arguments only strengthen my resolve to stand with Democrats in supporting Ukraine.
