Years of laundering money for the Russian mafia has taught Trump well. He will fleece Ukraine for all he can while sharing the spoils with Vlad.

This gives up the game. It’s all about revenge for getting caught accepting Russian aid to win in 2016 and Zelenskyy refusing to make up dirt on Biden. Petty personal grievances and revenge animate the convicted felon Trump.

This shit is so hard to watch. Trump approved of Putin’s invasion as smart. Then he says it would never have happened had he been president. Then, he gets pissy when people approve of Biden supporting Ukraine, so he ratfucks them by getting his republican toadies to block funding. Then he negotiates with the Russians without Ukraine or Europe, lies about European support, then tries to shake Zelenskyy down for minerals. I think the only thanks, Zelenskyy should give Trump is a sarcastic, “Thanks, asshole.”

Excellent writing, Josh Kovensky. This is what journalism should be: factual, logical, contextualizing, and concise yet including the needed detail to understand what actually just happened. If the American masses consumed a decent helping of this every day instead of Faux Nooz swill, we’d have a real country.

Trump has claimed Ukraine is the aggressor, how in the f*ck does anyone think he is capable of negotiating an end to the war?!

Rubio sitting there knowing Russia interfered in the 2016 election. He chaired a committee that investigated the extent of Russian involvement. Rubio is fully aware that our membership in NATO is teetering and along with it the safety of the USA.

The GOP has proven itself to be absolutely unconscionable.
It’s beyond outrageous, to say the least.
