Summary
Donald Trump is reportedly frustrated with the ongoing aerial strikes between Russia and Ukraine, despite his efforts to broker peace.
After recent talks with both leaders, Russia claimed a 30-day pause on energy infrastructure strikes, but Ukraine accused Russia of continuing civilian attacks.
Heavy attacks continue, with recent Russian strikes killing four and injuring 13 in Ukraine. Ukraine has also reportedly launched strikes against Russian infrastructure, which Russia claims caused significant damage.
A proposed broader ceasefire faltered over Russian demands to halt foreign military support for Ukraine.
He’s angry that he can’t claim the win, nothing more or less. Who knew geopolitics could be so difficult? And like a child who can’t comprehend something, he will pivot his attention to something else entirely and pretend this episode never happened.
I look forward to his “nobody knew this would be so difficult” statement.
Of course, this will be after he’s called all of his predecessors fucking morons for not doing things like he does.
Already did that part. Hell he called himself an idiot for the nafta modifications of his first term. Senile narcissist is stupid af more for the next 3y(at least).
I wouldn’t get my hopes up. I expect a “Mission Accomplished” press conference that will put Dubya to shame.
He promised something that wasn’t his to give. Then did the absurdly naive and ill-informed decision to attempt to negotiate with Putin by assuming against overwhelming evidence that Putin respects him and that he’d act out of good faith if he approached him in a position of submission and weakness. Now the Russians are taking advantage of it.
I bet Putin “promised” Trump he’d give him that win and now he’s just using it as a carrot on a stick to lead him along.
He treated Ukraine like Russia treats him…
And has zero idea why it didn’t work.
He’s also angry, that it’s making Putin mad at him
