A day after officially accepting the Republican nomination for president, Donald Trump is expected to speak by phone Friday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a source familiar with the plan told NBC News.

-snip-

Trump has vowed that if he wins the election, he'd have the war "settled" while he's still president-elect. He has not said how he'd do so. At his debate against President Joe Biden in June, Trump criticized the large amount of military aid going to Ukraine, but also said Russian President Vladimir Putin's terms to end the war are "not acceptable."

I will support Trump no matter how he handles this once in office.

I wish he would not talk to Zelensky now, but that’s his decision.

He shouldn’t talk to Zelensky. And he shouldn’t say anything besides listening, if he does.
They absolutely will use this against him.

We don't know if/how Zelensky was involved in the previous Democrat impeachment scheme with the fake-whistleblower and CIA John Brennan lackey Eric Ciaramaella - who conspired with Ukraine-US spy Alexander Vindman to create the grounds of Trump's first fake impeachment.

But Trump should indeed treat every discussion with Zelensky as a trap. I would only speak to Ukraine through the media.

Trump should clearly say: he feels ZERO responsibility for the sh**-show that Bush-Obama-Biden and the US deep-state have created in Ukraine.

Didn’t past Trump admin officials get in legal trouble for contacting foreign officials before being in office? Is that what they got Flynn for? Is this another trap?

The allegation was that Flynn lied to the FBI about the content of the call. It was a set up. Flynn, as the incoming president's national security advisor, called the Russian ambassador to introduce himself and discuss mutual concerns, which was entirely proper. The FBI called Flynn and said they would like to come over and discuss personnel security matters, and Flynn agreed. When they arrived, they actually discussed the call to the Russian ambassador. The conversation had been recorded by the FBI, a fact that must have been known to both the Russian ambassador and Flynn. The agents who interviewed Flynn, in their original "203"'s thought he had been honest and forthcoming. That was unsatisfactory to the Obama administration FBI heads. Apparently Flynn had misstated certain facts, or may have, the FBI agents did not record the interview with Flynn and were going off of their memories.

The upshot was the Flynn was charged with lying to the FBI. They threatened to charge his son with felonies in an entirely separate matter. They eventually got Flynn, whose lifesavings were depleted in his legal struggle with the government to accept a plea deal, that essentially ruined his life. The Trump Justice Department under Bill Barr, told the court that they wished to withdraw the charges, but the judge, Emmet G. Sullivan, refused to drop the charges. Eventually, Trump pardoned Flynn, even though the entire case was the product of the corrupt and politicized Obama Justice Department.

And throw in an impeachment on January 20 as soon as the oath is finished.

I’m certain the Global Homo will record the call.
Trump should tell the Global Homo the Gravy Train will be over when he takes office.
