Yes, Trump probably really believed he could get Trump and Zelensky in a room and knock their heads together.
I was reading something similar. Ukraine seems to be pivoting to active defense. Is this just a momentary thing or has Russia finally shot their wad from a manpower perspective?
Russian journalist Darya Dugia and American journalist Gonzalo Lira were both murdered by Ukraine. Both were on Ukraine's kill list, Myrotvorets. Other Americans on the hit list include: Scott Ritter Tulsi Gabbard Jack Posobiec
More likely that Trump said these things to stroke Zelenskyy’s ego and get him to lower his guard. Purely politically speaking, Trump is playing with house money at this point and gives a damn not what the media or Dems say about him. He also understands no matter what he says or does, they’re going to attack him. So this is probably red meat for Zelenskyy and nothing more.
No. I was doing a lousy impersonation of Zelenskyy. During Cold War times, we went nearly 50 years without feeling a thing and with the Soviet Union in control of Poland and half of Germany, in addition to Ukraine, all the Baltics and more. In other words, the red herring is simply another manifestation of Zelenskyy’s cunningness in brainwashing fear across the world over nothing. Trump rightly rebuked him for it.
You'll have to get Lee Harvey to admit that Russia invaded Ukraine without significant provocation in Feb., 2022 first. Your words are merely bells and whistles to him until he develops the capacity to understand that not-so-small fact. He's not ready to admit that yet. He's basically standing outside of a 12-step recovery program for propaganda-holics and disapproving of the welcome mat. Step 1 is a long, long way away.
Do you really think that Americans were feeling nothing when the Soviets tried to starve out the American sector in Berlin and we had to airlift supplies to them to keep them alive? Do you think that Americans were feeling nothing when teachers had to go through drills for children to duck under their desks in case a nuclear bomb was dropped nearby? Do you think that Americans were feeling nothing when Russia started to set up nuclear missiles in Cuba aimed at the U.S.? Do you think that Americans were feeling nothing when the Soviets plowed into Afghanistan and tried to take over the country? Trump is an imbecile.
Trump really helped putin by cutting off intel to Ukraine. “Not only Kursk, in all Russian territory there are problems now,” he says. The Ukrainians have lost the ability to detect the approach of Russian bombers and other warplanes as they take off inside Russia. As a result, Ukraine has less time to warn civilians and military personnel about the risk of an approaching airstrike or missile. “It’s very dangerous for our people,” the government source says.” Hundreds Dead: Inside the Trump Ukraine Fallout
Trump spoke later and said that Russia did what anyone else would do. And said Russia was easier to deal with than Ukraine. To be clear, America stands with Ukraine. Stopped assistance. Stopped sharing intel. And blinded their access to satellite. https://www.the Times.com/us/american-politics/article/trump-ukraine-ceasefire-minerals-deal-6qk6c0mzb
He may have missed the Soviet behavior in Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia. Or its forment of revolutions in Vietnam— where we suffered pain.
