According to U.S. President Donald Trump, Russia “has been fine on Ukraine” and “hasn’t been doing much” to the country it has been attempting to violently conquer for over a decade.
“Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven’t been doing much,” Trump told reporters on Oct. 19.
The president’s remarks came the same day that a Russian daytime drone strike in a public park killed six people, including two children. The night before, Russia attacked Kyiv with over a dozen ballistic missiles and targeted nearly 30 critical energy facilities across the country.

The old, fat, orange bitch of Putin’s is big butt-hurt because Ukraine disrupted Putin’s bot army for him by bombing a data center - sad, sick, pervert.
So the US agreed to protect Ukraine from Russia of they gave up their nukes, and now the US says it’s fine for Russia to invade Ukraine.
So the US agreed to protect Ukraine from Russia of they gave up their nukes
No, the USA never agreed to protect Ukraine - it was an atrocious deal for the latter.
This not being in a nuclear umbrella is the reason why Russia was willing to risk invading them.
It was clear at the start of his 2nd term that it was only a matter of time before the US just turned on Ukraine. If Russia can do whatever it wants on their borders then maybe the US can too… how convenient. Watch this space, Canada.
He’s doing everything in his might to lose the midterms even harder. That’s the last Putin is gonna get out of him and he knows it.
I wish I were his confident.
Actually, it could prove fatal to assume that the Republicans are going to lose the house(s). We should assume that they won’t and do everything so that they actually do.
But I do think that Putin is seeing Trump’s usefulness for him fading, even if we’re just looking at a potential defeat of his party.
Absolutely. Mobilising dem voters is critically important.
However, I don’t think that’s how Putin would see Trump. The whole strategy since forever has just been chaos.
Whatever bullshit they can stir up in the US is good for Putin, it doesn’t really matter what. They’ve been very successful, but it’s by no means over. It’s plausible that the US could have civil unrest, civil war, or a constitutional crisis in the coming months.
days since dumb man said dumb thing: 0
I guess it was also “fine” when you diddled those kids. 🤮
He probably forgot Russia actually started a war with Ukrain.
And he forgot Russia sells Iran munitions, and that he started a war with Iran for no reason.
Americans: How does it feel to be part of the USSR (The United States of Soviet Russia)? P.S. Send some more popcorn - we’ve run out. Best regards, Europe.
Why is this crusty pedophile still alive?
mcdonald preservatives, hes more nitrate than human.
There is absolutely no limit to Trump’s depravity. He is utterly without a soul; purely and completely evil.
What does that say about a population that allows him to stay in power for 6 fucking years and counting?
“Why don’t the pillars of frozen suffering faces simply rise up against the cenobites? It must be because they’re also evil, actually. I am very smart.”
Show me where I called anyone evil. Or where I claimed to be smart.
Maybe just say what you think it says about the population, so we don’t have to guess what your real point is.
I’ll take a crack at it for him, as a born and raised American who has since left.
Nobody is saying everyone in America is evil. In fact, fantastic and incredible and amazing people live there.
But as an aggregate population, they put Trump in charge. There is no getting around that. We can hem and haw all we want about “only X percentage of the population voted” and whatever nonsense we want to to make us feel better about the US population in the aggregate, but at the end of the day enough people either wanted this, or didn’t care enough to stop it, to make this happen. That is not a condemnation of every American - in the same way that calling Russia an evil country is not a condemnation of every Russian, but if anything, the population of the US is MORE culpable for this mess because their elections, at least in 2024, meant something.
I’m sure you and most of the people you know are damn fine, respectable, incredible people. But that’s not the whole anymore. The country as a whole has lost the plot, and I’m not convinced they can ever get it back.
**republicans have lost the plot. the voters are mindless cattle. the politicians//influencers are unironically evil
Well maybe, in point of fact I’m also a recovering American. I see American democracy as fundamentally broken at this point, so I tend to find fault with anyone describing Americans based on election results. Democracy has been under attack ever since the business plot, and it was never in great shape to begin with. Blame Reagan and every (including Democrats) president and congressperson since him for letting it happen in slow-motion plain daylight.
At this point? I think one of the first political discussions I had with my father was that the US legal and democratic system are broken beyond repair and have been for decades now. It took Trump’s ideocracy to make it painfully obvious.
Arguably I think many countries have arrived or will be arriving at the threshhold of functionality. So far the only two remedies that history provides are revolution or utter capitulation after losing a war. Let’s hope we find another less violent yet systematically equally disruptive solution. I for one cling to the believe that there’s still hope.
They certainly accelerated things, but the fact is, people had every single opportunity at the ballot box to choose better and failed to do so. There were no tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue. This was not a coup. Getting to this point happened because enough of the populace were complicit. I’m glad you’re also a recovering American, but the people who are left have to really consider when they say “This isn’t us.” No, it isn’t you, but as a whole country? This might be “us”, and it’s time to seriously consider the company they’re keeping.
More cryptic and obtuse bullshit.
Six years?
4+2?
Ah, damn it, I thought it ment three mandate periods…
I blame an overworked brain that just woke up.
Dear Grim Reaper…
Dear cheeseburdler…
vance is busy trying to reap the current popes soul.
From “end the war on day 1” to “it’s fine”.
By the end of the year he’ll declare the war “over”, regardless of what’s actually going on.
Then sign an executive order trying to ban all US media from ever mentioning it again.
He can try, but it would have no legal effect. Executive orders only work on federal agencies.
You’re missing the part where the corporate media would want to kiss his ass.
He can order the federal agents to deport anyone who does.
Under article 2 of the constitution he cannot. (Separation of powers)
Ohhhh my god, are we seriously doing this? You have seen how ICE is arresting and deporting US citizens, right? Laws mean nothing when they aren’t enforced.
Noone is brave enough to try and stop him
It’s ok. Cuckservatives have no standards so he doesn’t need to make good on any of his promises to them. Maybe shit directly into their mouths a bit to placate them. Or insult them directly to their faces. You know, things cucks like.
Putin got exactly what he wanted in the US. Europe, I hope y’all have got your shit together.
In an interview with U.S. broadcaster ABC that aired over the weekend, Trump was asked about Putin’s presence in Ukraine.
He replied: “He’s not going to go into Ukraine, alright? You can mark it down. You can put it down. You can take it anywhere you want.” To which the puzzled interviewer asked: “Well, he’s already there, isn’t he?” referring to Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014 and support for separatists in Ukraine’s east.
“OK, well, he’s there in a certain way. But I’m not there. You have Obama there. And frankly, that whole part of the world is a mess under Obama with all the strength that you’re talking about and all of the power of NATO and all of this. In the meantime, he’s going away. He take, takes Crimea.”

He just wants Russian oil to drive down gas prices for the midterms. He never cared about Ukraine it was just words to get votes.
Isn’t it way too late for that?
hes mad because datacenters were also holding some of his crypto accounts that been hit/
It’s enough for 1/2 day of US diesel consumption. That will not move prices, except maybe up.
