The American Government has broken their treaty with Ukraine 🇺🇦. They have betrayed their promises that were made when they agreed to give up all their nuclear weapons in exchange that if Russia would ever attack them we would protect them without hesitation and be there till Russia stopped.
WHAT HAPPENED OUR WORD IS OUR BOND AND APPARENTLY A TREATY AND OUR WORD MEANS NOTHING!!!
SHAME ON THIS REGIME SUPPORTING RUSSIA AND NOT UKRAINE. THIS STAIN WILL NEVER BE REMOVED IT'S FOREVER!!!!!!
There was never any such agreement, and it can be argued that USA nullified the Budapest Memorandum by staging the Maidan coup of 2014. Incidentally, Ukraine never had the ability to use the nukes, as the launch codes remained in Moscow..they were an expensive liability.
The senate didnt ratify it. Russia and Uk signed. In any case it was far more official than Putin's excuse about the West agreeing not to push NATO further East on which he justifies his invasion. That was never more than an informal discussion.
Dave, or whatever, I guess USA should have admitted Russia to NATO in 2000, when Putin asked...but that could never have happened because it would have made US lies about European security painfully evident and bankrupted the US MIC. Guess Zelensky should also have stuck to the peace agreement hammered out in Turkey under Naftali Bennett...the agreement that Boris Johnson scuppered in order to "press Russia".
Well, you've now pressed so hard that you've lost the war, as well as any chance of turning Russia against China.
Typical US bungling at the expense of Ukrainian lives and US tax payers.
Thanks. In fact that document was not a formal agreement just a discussion of options. The US President was not part of it. But in any case the excuse about wanting a security perimeter against NATO is ridiculous. NATO has not invaded an inch of Russian territory in 75 years while Russia under Putin has now invaded or interfered with several former satellite nations in order to try to re-create its 19th Century imperial system. Russia has put pressure on the West not the other way round.
So, USA can have a Monroe Doctrine, Russia or China can not? Gtfoh 🤣 NATO in Ukraine holds the same existential threat for Russia as did Russian missiles in Cuba in 1962, don't be a hypocrite.
Totally agree. Our word hasn’t been trusted in quite some time. Why would they? We invaded Iraq because Shrub (Thank you Molly Ivins—-I’ll miss you until the day I die!) wanted to show daddy he was not a wuss. Now, dickhead Trump is betraying everybody except his buddy Putin.
Connie, heck, as far as I can tell, MAGAs care nothing for anyone but themselves, what makes them FEEL comfortable, what can do harm to anyone who scares them and everyone scares them, and their Baby Donnie. That's it!
There is hope, because other countries in Europe (who used to be our allies until Trump screwed them over) are willing to help them as much as they can.
How could you possibly think that the "support" we gave Ukraine so far helped them? Do you realize that unmarked vans pull Ukrainians off the street and force them into training and on to the front lines?
The Russians had reasonable requests - don't put NATO at our doorstep as was agreed upon when the Soviet Union dismantled itself. (Just like Russia is not in Mexico or Canada). Don't stop the Russian communities in Ukraine from speaking Russian and practicing their religion.(Ukraine had banned those).
Instread, we caused the death of millions of Ukrainians and Russians.
That is just one of the many self-centered things that bipartisan American negotiators cons have done. Great for the military industrial complex.
Ad great for the Europeans to hide their failing economies behind a pointless war that could have been avoided by keeping our word.
As much as I love Europe, we do need to remember that they caused 2 world wars.
First, Europe has 44 countries, and all of them did not cause the two World Wars; 43 of them suffered from German aggression.
Second, the threat of NATO intervention has prevented any and all aggression against NATO countries for 75 years. What purpose would Russia have in preventing Ukraine from being in NATO? That would be, Russia could invade again-and I dare say will.
Third. Here's a hypothetical. Russia, which is just 55 miles across the Bering Strait, attacks Alaska. We fought in Alaska for three years, and fearing escalation, we did not use all our military power or ask our NATO allies to intervene. We want peace. Would you accept the same conditions that Russia is demanding of Ukraine? Would we, or rather would you, give up the territory of Alaska to the Russians for the sake of peace?
"VR" is an "alt world" provocateur (at best). Vaccine/COVID and other conspiratorial shit, nasty magoid, frequent russofellator. A chaos agent, most likely freelancing (= too amateur to be getting paid).
It's been pretty heavily infested for awhile. The putin-loving accounts often push batshit crazy conspiratorial shit - vaccines are bioweapons, World Economic Forum cabal depopulation agenda, George Soros, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey's directed energy weapons caused fires on Maui, immigrants are raping everyone +/- hardcore jooooo hate.
You make some reasonable points about how the situation in Ukraine before its invasion of Crimea unfolded. Europe/Nato HAS been expansionist, and this DID rattle Russia. BUT.. Russia is a sham democracy, an oligarchic petrostate that silences debate and opposition, and has co-opted its courts and the press to kowtow to Putin. Russia’s real reason for wanting Ukraine not to self-determine as a European democracy is how that would make Russia’s crony-based system look to its citizens. Ukraine leaning west is not existential to Russia, it’s existential to those *in power* in Russia. So this is a war of ideologies - between liberal democracy and autocracy. (No wonder Putin worked so hard to get Trump elected.) And the west should not allow Russia to win by appeasement. That was tried in 1938. It didn’t end well.
No. Russian security concerns should have been addressed before the war started. Since that didn't happen, 2 months in, the peace agreement should have been signed. Since we stopped that from happening, And now that Europe and the U.S. have run our proxy war, Ukraine should agree to the terms and stop the killing on both sides.
We have used Ukraine and Ukrainian lives. We would never allow 1 million Americans to be killed. Blood on our hands. It's despicable.
It is a horrible situation and it really is desperate-I don’t begin to know the better way it should have been nor
How to resolve -but I do not
Have any faith in anything trump does because he is a convicted felon and a con and a liar that is about all one needs to know-he doesn’t give a fuck about Ukraine nor Americans …he is everything for how it could benefit him so I seriously doubt he can resolve anything that would pass scrutiny…..
@vr12207771 you sound like a Russian bot or troll.
The best case scenario is that you've allowed yourself to fall for Russian propaganda and are merely mindlessly spreading it.
Your post is full of lies.
"The claim was false. Fact-checkers at the StopFake project debunked it swiftly. No such ruling exists in Ukraine’s official court registry. The Supreme Court does not have the authority to legalize violence against military personnel.
"The claim was not just a lie about the law — it was a story, crafted to present Ukraine not as a country defending itself, but as a regime turning against its people, where the main enemy is the government, not Russia."
"Most Russian disinformation is mixed of historical distortions, conspiracy theories, and outright lies to justify Russian aggressions. The facts show that Ukraine is a sovereign nation, Russia’s invasion is illegal; and the war was not provoked by the West but by Putin’s expansionist ambitions."
"Moreover, the whole “NATO expansion” narrative was a lie made in Moscow to cover up their imperial expansionism* (although what Trump is doing now, in 2025, is an imperial expansionism). Free nations applying to join and joining is not expansionism, it’s admission for a reason: those Eastern and Central European nations were rightfully wanted protection from any Russian aggressions. And we see that Moscow’s forces have attacked only non-NATO members, such as Moldova 1993, Syria 2015-2024, Georgia, Ukraine."
Trump has been owned by Putin for a long time. Trump’s Russian relationships have been out there in plain sight. No matter what Trump, Lutnick, Vance and the rest of them say, Ukrainians deserve our full support.
Ukrainians have done a great job of doing NATO's job - protecting Europe from Russia. The "second greatest army" is grinding itself to bits against a country Putin pretends isn't real.
Time for my country (UK) and the European Union to step up. Show the orange menace how things are really done. My fear is that if that ABSOLUTE TOAD, Nigel Farage gets into power, Ukraine really will be in trouble, (and so will my beloved country). Which doesn't bear thinking about. If a 28 point 'peace' plan involves the total capitulation of a country, it's not a peace plan. It's called fucking over said country. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
Yes, I need to check how my country, Australia, is reacting to this. While we obviously are not part of NATO, we are allies and if we believe in the absolute sovereignty of democratic nation states, then we too, need to step up more in solidarity with Ukraine.
Your country has an army smaller than many US police departments, and your own MOD admits that you would struggle to field a division, and be combat ineffective within two weeks. Settle down and stop wishing for more Ukrainians to die in a futile conflict that NATO has LOST.
It was just proven that many of the MAGA/Pro Russia pages on Twitter/X are nothing more than adversarial Bots based in Russia, India, China, and Israel. Are you one of them?
Since when does USA negotiate a peace with the *loser* of a conflict? The US doesn't negotiate with losers, it occupies them.
I don't see any US occupation of any Russian territory, but I see that Russia has about 25% of Ukraine, and taking more every day...so, great Napoleon, tell us, who is winning the war?
MAGA isn't "pro Russia", as evidenced by Russia being the most heavily sanctioned nation on earth, and the fact that USA spends Billions every year to kill Russians in Ukraine.
Bots don't quote facts, Cathy. The facts on the ground don't suit your narrative, but attacking the messenger won't stop Russia from taking another village today. Take a step back from The View and get a grip on cold, hard, military reality.
Ha, ha. We managed to fuck over Hitler once, albeit with allies. (Which is why I included the European Union in my comment, if you read it in full 😉). Yeah, the USA got involved. AFTER Pearl Harbour. Just saying 😌 Bluff and bravado is all well and good, and will grt you so far. But, when the real stuff comes, you need to be prepared to show up 😉
And finally Hitler killed himself or was chased down in his tunnels…it took a long time with many deaths …because no one could take that fucker out in a timely manner…Remind everyone of something going on here?? That should END sooner
The Polish and Norwegian nations are building tanks to position against Russia and are buying new planes to add to their forces. They know Russia and that only superior force will stop the Russian advancement.
Vikki, Russia defeated Germany. America came late to both your silly, unnecessary wars, and now you're trying to start a third one. Your navy is a joke, you cannot afford a full compliment of aircraft for your two, broken carriers, you have no stand-off air to ground munitions, zero SPGs, and, again, an army smaller than many US police forces. You cannot even launch "your" nukes without US approval and technology. Your empire is long dead, and the successive governments of Thatcher, Blair, et al have hollowed out your nation as a haven for immigrants who will certainly not put on a uniform to defend your Russophobic interests.
What's a "communist technique", Carol? We're dying to know...is it anything like proscribing Palestine Action and imprisoning pensioners for opposing genocide?
At least not doing *that*, but happily providing weapons and intelligence via RAF overflights of Gaza to enable and promote genocide.
Your entire government and BBC staff should be hung by the neck at The Hague.
And how about Ukraine..interesting that the three greatest debacles of the SMO were the failed "summer offensive" of 2023, the amphibious operation at Krynkyy, and the inane Kursk "invasion", all British plans, and all utter disasters for Ukraine.
Again, Britian is no longer an empirez and just barely a functional state, and needs to stop advocating for war around the globe as an exit for it's domestic woes.
Now there's something we can agree on. Britain is not innocent, not by a long way. The population, however, sees the injustice, and we're shouting out loud about it. British governments have a lot to answer for. At the least, think Tony fking Blair and Bush. I didn't assume you were American. You're probably a Bangladeshi bot or some such. Colonialism is a really bad idea, and my country has been one of the worst. We need Israel out of politics.
Yes. At peace Australia looks to be tiny in armed forces size. At war or in defence, the Japanese did not run over Australia because they were aided by the King of England and their allies opposing Hitler and Japan.
I wish we could see the Epstein files before they cave. I read that Epstein was sending dirt on Trump to Putin and that makes perfect sense. Putin probably has the pictures Epstein collected to blackmail him. There are people who have seen all the files--please, please step up!
Basically DTrump is going to die soon. Putin and Netanyahu are also old and ailing men with an unbridled lust for power. As I see it US Republicans and independents have to join Democrats and 50 other nations to help defend Ukraine and stop Putin’s megalomania, which is not coherent strategy any longer but a desperate attempt to stay in power, much like Netanyahu’s. (Trump’s belief he can just take over Venezuelan resources is quite akin to Putin’s belief he could just take Ukrainian resources. )All three tyrants need to go before they completely destroy their own countries as well as those they are catastrophically and illegally invading.
Sure but the USA isn’t a signatory to the International Criminal Court, which is why DTrump could invite Putin to Alaska and Netanyahu to Washington with impunity. The USA has itself to deal with invoking the 25th to remove DTrump on grounds of mental deterioration, impeaching Hegseth and other corrupt officials including Supreme Court justices, bringing ICE employees to justice where violence and unlawful detention have occurred and insisting on the court martial of the Admiral and Navy Seals involved in murder on the high seas.
Problem is the Epstein files will be covered with so much indelible black ink that any mention of the orange ogre will be redacted and he’ll come out as “clean” a scum infected whistle.
Problem is the Epstein files will be covered with so much indelible black ink that any mention of the orange ogre will be redacted and he’ll come out as “clean” a scum infected whistle.
This is what the US gets out of voting for a known criminal into office. We have the Mafia running this regime with a wanna be dictator who will do anything to gain power and wealth at the expense of everyone else. He has no concern for the needs of the majority of Americans. He says whatever is convenient to delude the masses into thinking they are being handed riches when they are actually being given the shaft. Our brothers and sisters in Ukraine have been given more support by Europe. This would have had a chance of appropriate resolution if Trump actually cared about diplomacy and showed any leadership. The facts are obvious. He has no skills to lead, govern, or negotiate. He is a classless bully and makes himself feel better by degrading everyone around him.
My heart bleeds for Ukraine!! So long as Trump is in office and in Putins pocket I remain very afraid for Ukraine! My heartfelt thanks to many European countries who have helped in supporting the people of Ukraine!! I pray everyday for them!
Prayers are no longer a viable option for a god damn anything so stop saying it Please…many of us are not far right god damn Christian nationalists extremists and believe in Facts & Actions…
I can’t emphasize enough how I can’t stand governing by Twitter or social media. Is there any other government that knows what they’re doing throws up this nonsense to see if it flies? I cannot wait till we get back to serious governance by people who know what they are doing.
Horrible. Horrible for Ukraine and horrible for decent people her in the US that must live under the short-fingered vulgarian as president (undeserving of capitalization). I'd say, "Shame," to the Republicans, but they have none.
Well, Liz Cheney stood up to Trump in a noble manner. Also, there is a huge change going on in America. The people are rising and protesting in over 2,000 towns and cities. The news media is not covering this movement. MTN is doing pod casts to almost 1 million folks about the events that corporate news sources ( Fox, abc, NBC, CBS ....) cover up or ignore. Protest, vote.
Understand;?trump is a Russian asset, they own him. Not only did they gey him elected over Clinton,,they, the Russians saved trumps empire. You see when Trump was going bankrupt again, no one would Trump money. His creditors at the gate his lifeline came from Russia operatives. They came up with the funds to save the bankrupt organization. In addition to this Trump also threw his attorney and lifelong friend under the bus as MC went to jail because he was too stupid to trust Trump and take the fall. So Trump partially paid Russia with Top Secret documents among other American assets. Trump is not done. He wants to be president for life and avoid awaiting legal consequences his presidency cant save him from. So he is working again to attempt to undermine our democracy and be president, king, dictator for life. He is too stupid to understand we the people will remove this clown. He has already declared war on certain states send You are Troops into American Cities in the name of Crime Prevention. Its a prelude for his plan to destroy state rights and hijack states independence. Wake up America trumps destruction and undermining of our democracy has already begun. Let’s stop this deranged clown before its too late. Understand were America is heading and Take action Now 🔥🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️
The American Government has broken their treaty with Ukraine 🇺🇦. They have betrayed their promises that were made when they agreed to give up all their nuclear weapons in exchange that if Russia would ever attack them we would protect them without hesitation and be there till Russia stopped.

Trump has destroyed the standing of the USA to the world and and our enemies.
That’s for god damn sure -World
Leaders just
Laugh at Trumper
Previous Presidents lacked the necessary IMAGINATION…should have given him all he needed THEN…to take care of it
There was never any such agreement, and it can be argued that USA nullified the Budapest Memorandum by staging the Maidan coup of 2014. Incidentally, Ukraine never had the ability to use the nukes, as the launch codes remained in Moscow..they were an expensive liability.
Shove your lies in your vatnik cunt.
🤡
Velociraver or
whatever. The Budapest agreement was real.
The senate didnt ratify it. Russia and Uk signed. In any case it was far more official than Putin's excuse about the West agreeing not to push NATO further East on which he justifies his invasion. That was never more than an informal discussion.
Dave, or whatever, I guess USA should have admitted Russia to NATO in 2000, when Putin asked...but that could never have happened because it would have made US lies about European security painfully evident and bankrupted the US MIC. Guess Zelensky should also have stuck to the peace agreement hammered out in Turkey under Naftali Bennett...the agreement that Boris Johnson scuppered in order to "press Russia".
Well, you've now pressed so hard that you've lost the war, as well as any chance of turning Russia against China.
Typical US bungling at the expense of Ukrainian lives and US tax payers.
See the US National Security Archive, document 16116 for the minutes of that February 9th, 1990 meeting between Baker, Shevardnadze and Gorbachev.
Sorry to burst your bubble..
Thanks. In fact that document was not a formal agreement just a discussion of options. The US President was not part of it. But in any case the excuse about wanting a security perimeter against NATO is ridiculous. NATO has not invaded an inch of Russian territory in 75 years while Russia under Putin has now invaded or interfered with several former satellite nations in order to try to re-create its 19th Century imperial system. Russia has put pressure on the West not the other way round.
So now you agree the document exists..marvelous progress.
So, USA can have a Monroe Doctrine, Russia or China can not? Gtfoh 🤣 NATO in Ukraine holds the same existential threat for Russia as did Russian missiles in Cuba in 1962, don't be a hypocrite.
Hi
Actually I think we're on the same side on this mess.
Velocrapter is full putinoid - and the accompanying conspiracy-addled vaccine lunacy they push.
Get a grip on reality, you're daft.
Because it would never happen, Yankee cuck?
This is 2025, though. This is today, not 2014.
Totally agree. Our word hasn’t been trusted in quite some time. Why would they? We invaded Iraq because Shrub (Thank you Molly Ivins—-I’ll miss you until the day I die!) wanted to show daddy he was not a wuss. Now, dickhead Trump is betraying everybody except his buddy Putin.
It’s so sickening. It makes me feel desperate for Ukraine.
If America doesn't support Ukraine..
then WE... AMERICA... ARE NEXT!!
VOTE ALL maga OUT!!
They OBVIOUSLY CARE NOTHING about AMERICA or AMERICAN CHILDREN!!
Connie, heck, as far as I can tell, MAGAs care nothing for anyone but themselves, what makes them FEEL comfortable, what can do harm to anyone who scares them and everyone scares them, and their Baby Donnie. That's it!
But will Ukraine survive long enough to get rid of maga.
No not really we won’t give them what they need to defend themselves because trumper wants to build his shit bldgs in Russia …..
There is hope, because other countries in Europe (who used to be our allies until Trump screwed them over) are willing to help them as much as they can.

Just saying 😌 Bluff and bravado is all well and good, and will grt you so far. But, when the real stuff comes, you need to be prepared to show up 😉
And finally Hitler killed himself or was chased down in his tunnels…it took a long time with many deaths …because no one could take that fucker out in a timely manner…Remind everyone of something going on here?? That should END sooner
Than later…
Yes
The Polish and Norwegian nations are building tanks to position against Russia and are buying new planes to add to their forces. They know Russia and that only superior force will stop the Russian advancement.
Vikki, Russia defeated Germany. America came late to both your silly, unnecessary wars, and now you're trying to start a third one. Your navy is a joke, you cannot afford a full compliment of aircraft for your two, broken carriers, you have no stand-off air to ground munitions, zero SPGs, and, again, an army smaller than many US police forces. You cannot even launch "your" nukes without US approval and technology. Your empire is long dead, and the successive governments of Thatcher, Blair, et al have hollowed out your nation as a haven for immigrants who will certainly not put on a uniform to defend your Russophobic interests.
This comment by Velociraver is a perfect example of how communist techniques attack and undermine the faith of a democratic people.
What's a "communist technique", Carol? We're dying to know...is it anything like proscribing Palestine Action and imprisoning pensioners for opposing genocide?
Yes. What dictator says is absolute truth. Putin is a great example.
*Complement. And our navy is more capable than you give them credit for. At least we're not committing war crimes with extra judicial murders.
At least not doing *that*, but happily providing weapons and intelligence via RAF overflights of Gaza to enable and promote genocide.
Your entire government and BBC staff should be hung by the neck at The Hague.
And how about Ukraine..interesting that the three greatest debacles of the SMO were the failed "summer offensive" of 2023, the amphibious operation at Krynkyy, and the inane Kursk "invasion", all British plans, and all utter disasters for Ukraine.
Again, Britian is no longer an empirez and just barely a functional state, and needs to stop advocating for war around the globe as an exit for it's domestic woes.
Don't mistake me for an American.
Now there's something we can agree on. Britain is not innocent, not by a long way. The population, however, sees the injustice, and we're shouting out loud about it. British governments have a lot to answer for. At the least, think Tony fking Blair and Bush. I didn't assume you were American. You're probably a Bangladeshi bot or some such. Colonialism is a really bad idea, and my country has been one of the worst. We need Israel out of politics.
I don't speak gibberish. English only.
Yes. At peace Australia looks to be tiny in armed forces size. At war or in defence, the Japanese did not run over Australia because they were aided by the King of England and their allies opposing Hitler and Japan.
The Japanese didn't have indefensible hypersonic missiles and nuclear weapons. Just saying.
I wish we could see the Epstein files before they cave. I read that Epstein was sending dirt on Trump to Putin and that makes perfect sense. Putin probably has the pictures Epstein collected to blackmail him. There are people who have seen all the files--please, please step up!
Not only that, but Epstein and Bannon were political allies who frequently exchanged emails.
Bannon, Who looks like A piece of sh*t
Whith the bodily odour of a piece of sh*t
lauriemillerjade.com
He looks to be unfamiliar with soap, water, and a razor.
Yeah, Bannon’s another scum infected “whistle”.
I wonder how much Bannon and Epstein did together to promote Trump’s cause.
Basically DTrump is going to die soon. Putin and Netanyahu are also old and ailing men with an unbridled lust for power. As I see it US Republicans and independents have to join Democrats and 50 other nations to help defend Ukraine and stop Putin’s megalomania, which is not coherent strategy any longer but a desperate attempt to stay in power, much like Netanyahu’s. (Trump’s belief he can just take over Venezuelan resources is quite akin to Putin’s belief he could just take Ukrainian resources. )All three tyrants need to go before they completely destroy their own countries as well as those they are catastrophically and illegally invading.
The Hague is a place where they belong on trial in the International Court.
Sure but the USA isn’t a signatory to the International Criminal Court, which is why DTrump could invite Putin to Alaska and Netanyahu to Washington with impunity. The USA has itself to deal with invoking the 25th to remove DTrump on grounds of mental deterioration, impeaching Hegseth and other corrupt officials including Supreme Court justices, bringing ICE employees to justice where violence and unlawful detention have occurred and insisting on the court martial of the Admiral and Navy Seals involved in murder on the high seas.
Problem is the Epstein files will be covered with so much indelible black ink that any mention of the orange ogre will be redacted and he’ll come out as “clean” a scum infected whistle.

The orange menace is a puppet traitor. Happy Thanksgiving, Mary. I wrote a poem for you, inspired by your bravery: https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/mary-trump-poem
FAILED LEADERSHIP. TRUMP IS POTINS PUPPET AND THAT MAKES HIM A TRAITOR, WHICH IS A REASON TO IMPEACH HIM. WHATS THE HOLD UP?
trump OBVIOUSLY IS A RUSSIAN OPERATIVE!!!
Comrade Krasnov at work
Well, let me think...Republicans (AKA Traitors).
Impeachment will probably require a D majority.
ASAP
Slava Ukraini!
Well stated!Russia Putin needs to go down,as well as Trump + his entire admin.
Here's a peace plan:
1. Putin leaves Ukraine.
2. Trump leave the U.S.
3. Ukraine joins NATO.
4. Everyone has a party.🎉
Here is a peace plan. Mexico joins Russia in exchange for Ukraine being in NATO. I of course am being facetious.
Does anyone on this thread understand fairness? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you?
Can few of you put yourselves in Russia's shoes for a hot second and think about whether you would want your foe on your doorstep?
And a completely corrupt doorstep at that. Listen to Jeffrey Sacks.
The largest country on Earth by far shouldn't be eating the neighbors. Fuck off, vatnik trash.
Jeffrey Sachs lies for the Kremlin. As do you.

This is what the US gets out of voting for a known criminal into office. We have the Mafia running this regime with a wanna be dictator who will do anything to gain power and wealth at the expense of everyone else. He has no concern for the needs of the majority of Americans. He says whatever is convenient to delude the masses into thinking they are being handed riches when they are actually being given the shaft. Our brothers and sisters in Ukraine have been given more support by Europe. This would have had a chance of appropriate resolution if Trump actually cared about diplomacy and showed any leadership. The facts are obvious. He has no skills to lead, govern, or negotiate. He is a classless bully and makes himself feel better by degrading everyone around him.
My heart bleeds for Ukraine!! So long as Trump is in office and in Putins pocket I remain very afraid for Ukraine! My heartfelt thanks to many European countries who have helped in supporting the people of Ukraine!! I pray everyday for them!
Prayers are no longer a viable option for a god damn anything so stop saying it Please…many of us are not far right god damn Christian nationalists extremists and believe in Facts & Actions…
Not all Christians are Christian Nationalists. Not all prayers are the same.
Thank you Mary for the words of wisdom!
I can’t emphasize enough how I can’t stand governing by Twitter or social media. Is there any other government that knows what they’re doing throws up this nonsense to see if it flies? I cannot wait till we get back to serious governance by people who know what they are doing.
Horrible. Horrible for Ukraine and horrible for decent people her in the US that must live under the short-fingered vulgarian as president (undeserving of capitalization). I'd say, "Shame," to the Republicans, but they have none.
Well, Liz Cheney stood up to Trump in a noble manner. Also, there is a huge change going on in America. The people are rising and protesting in over 2,000 towns and cities. The news media is not covering this movement. MTN is doing pod casts to almost 1 million folks about the events that corporate news sources ( Fox, abc, NBC, CBS ....) cover up or ignore. Protest, vote.
Understand;?trump is a Russian asset, they own him. Not only did they gey him elected over Clinton,,they, the Russians saved trumps empire. You see when Trump was going bankrupt again, no one would Trump money. His creditors at the gate his lifeline came from Russia operatives. They came up with the funds to save the bankrupt organization. In addition to this Trump also threw his attorney and lifelong friend under the bus as MC went to jail because he was too stupid to trust Trump and take the fall. So Trump partially paid Russia with Top Secret documents among other American assets. Trump is not done. He wants to be president for life and avoid awaiting legal consequences his presidency cant save him from. So he is working again to attempt to undermine our democracy and be president, king, dictator for life. He is too stupid to understand we the people will remove this clown. He has already declared war on certain states send You are Troops into American Cities in the name of Crime Prevention. Its a prelude for his plan to destroy state rights and hijack states independence. Wake up America trumps destruction and undermining of our democracy has already begun. Let’s stop this deranged clown before its too late. Understand were America is heading and Take action Now 🔥🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️
