    I do believe in the rasmussen polls that show that Trump's popularity is declining

    1000% agree. Both sides are devoid of moral leadership, which is a reflection of the population at large. The American people are not decent anymore. We have become spoiled, greedy, egotistical crybabies that need an ass whooping and a reality check.

    There’s reportedly about $4 billion left from the aid package Congress passed in Q2 last year. Imo Trump wouldn’t have released much if any, as trump is now appeasing Putin. Regardless if Zelensky wore a suit. Plus, there’s little chance Congress would pass another funding resolution, especially since the last one took six months.

    Ukraine and Zelensky likely considered that with the “deal” Trump offered.

    Zelensky showed America that he doesn't want peace, and he was very rude to our President and VP, he should have done that behind closed doors.
    Then he did an interview with Bret Baier had several opportunities to apologize or show regret which he refused.
    This idiot left himself no options, I bet the spineless European leaders encouraged this from Zelinsky, they want to be in charge so bad. But they won't provide the cash that's needed for this
    Trump did good as usual, thank God Harris didn't win.

    I watched that interview the whole way through. He literally said he’d resign for security guarantees for his people and that he thinks the day went very badly. wtf do we want from the guy? For him to literally get on his knees and beg?

    The global consensus is that the United States looked like asses. The only people who disagree with this opinion are MAGA and Russia. MAGA won't let that sink in

    Rather that quoting yet another rightwinger’s tweet, why don’t you show a few polls that say that?

    Let’s hope so. I can’t imagine how a person whose family escaped Cuba can sit by and watch this for much longer.

    Maybe, but I am not sure you can get a refund for your soul. Plus, no one who resigned from the first term is better off today than those that continued to kiss his ass the whole time. So what’s the upside of quitting if you don’t care about your soul?

    Z shoulda just turned around the moment Trump telegraphed the charade by belittling him for not wearing a suit.

    But Vance is the real dirt bag. Trump is sincerely that much of a bubble boy tyrant. He has never lived a minute of strife. He truly believes himself.

    Vance is just scum. He didn’t come from Manhattan million dollar “loans”. Not an ounce of sincerity in his acting. He doesn’t believe in anything except how anything helps JD Vance.

    Don’t worry about that. Trump about to give them all tax cuts on the backs of the middle class and working class. But don’t worry! That situation always ends smoothly

    Are you thinking of some other weapons system? I thought the Javelin’s were used from day 1 and had been very key to early Ukraine defense?

    I know later on we slow walked some longer range artillery systems and the F-16’s, but even those are deployed. I am not a military person (thus don’t waste my time reading military blogs, and don’t know the ins and outs of how everything is moving), but based on how front and center the Javelins were I can only assume you are mistaken. Now I think the war has evolved, so perhaps the Javelin is not as important as it was. Seems like it’s more about drones now.

    The socialists in Europe can pay for Ukraine's war... fine by me. No free speech... no NATO help, too.

    Why should we help the Euro-trash enslave it's population with Draconian jail time for memes and free-speech on social media?

    That continent needs to spend their own money on that socialism crap. They should just ask China for more money.

    It's hard to accurately describe how vile MAGA is.

    But you do worship a traitor who is also a rapist.
