Following that post, Trump provided historical context of the United States standing up to Moscow with a Truth Social post composed of a black-and-white photo of him sticking his finger into the chest of Putin and one of President Richard Nixon sticking his finger into the chest of Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev.
Elliott Erwitt's 1959 "Kitchen Debate" photograph, showing Nixon jabbing a finger at Khrushchev, became an enduring Cold War symbol of America standing firm against Moscow. Taken at the American National Exhibition in Moscow, the impromptu exchange over communism and capitalism played out in a model kitchen — giving the confrontation its name.

The title is misleading with squirrelly punctuation. Show me where Trump clearly stated ‘Let Ukraine fight back’?
Trump’s wrong on this part......
if the grifter zelensky doesn’t negotiate a peace deal this time, the U.S. should stop all aid and walk away, because zelensky will never end the war
“To the Last Ukrainian!” - The Zeeping Room
FAKE NEWS.
Trump did not say, "Let Ukraine fight back."
Trump commented that Biden permitted defensive weapons only, and noted that this was unusual if the point was to help Ukraine win.I checked AI, and it at first affirmed Trump said it, then the AI explained that Trump actually criticized Biden. Then the AI said Trump never explicitly said that.
The sources the AI used for it's 'proof' were almost all lefty pro-Ukrainian war sources.
seems like that’s what he is doing.
I side with President Trump. Not the 2 idiot babies.
Trump:
“It is very hard, if not impossible, to win a war without attacking an invader’s country,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “It’s like a great team in sports that has a fantastic defense, but is not allowed to play offense.”
It’s Putin who isn’t cooperating.
Obviously.
One could certainly infer that by criticizing Biden’s policy (restraining Ukraine), he is threatening to do the opposite. I think the vagueness is intentional. It’s a warning.
The grifter zelensky already does attack russian lands...
You know, the surprise drone attack launched inside russia against airbases and other assets
the drone attacks launched just before Trump was to discuss peace deals with Putin...
Assassinations carried out against russian military leadership, inside russia....
Strangely enough, zelensky never says anything about stopping offensive attacks unconditionally as a display of working towards peace.
if the grifter zelensky doesn’t negotiate a peace deal this time, the U.S. should stop all aid and walk away, because zelensky will never end the war.
——————-
Exactly, the war will be over by Christmas. ( western Christmas Dec 25, not Russian Orthodox Christmas, Jan 7 which Zelensky abolished). I believe it is becoming clear this war will be decided by the reality on the ground….Vlad will keep his ethnic Russian provinces.
I’m not as easily fooled as you are by the ‘marcus’ manipulations.
Trump has the opportunity to be the Reagan of our time and give them a second crushing defeat. End the KGB era once and for all.
Let a newer generation of Russians take over.
“I believe it is becoming clear this war will be decided by the reality on the ground”
Agreed.
Russia will continue to pursue its’ political goals.
They can fight back for as long and hard as they want, as long as American taxdollars no longer fund a proxy war with Russia, and no free American-made weapons are provided. Europe can pay the U.S. for all that crap. We’ve been funding that war from the beginning, which is the only reason it has gone on as long as it has. It will be interesting to see how much money the Euroweenies are willing to cough up to allow Ukraine to continue fighting this useless war.
And Zelensky’s been cooperating after getting millions of unaccounted-for tax payer dollars? This war wouldn’t have gone on as long as it has without that money, and sending him untold numbers of military equipment, depleting our own weapons inventories.
Zelensky agreed to an unconditional 30 day ceasefire. Putin refused.
I think you mean “Newsmax” manipulations. Marcus didn’t write the headline, and my comment was strictly limited to my opinion of Trump’s words. And I’m certainly not “fooled”. As far as misleading headlines go, this one is not that bad. Relax.
