Russia is ‘losing’ its war on Ukraine, Joint Staff chairman, envoy tell Trump: ‘We’d kick their a**’

Special Presidential Envoy Keith Kellogg on Monday said he and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff recently advised President Trump that Russia is losing its war on Ukraine — as Moscow has seen more than 1 million casualties while taking less than 1% of Ukrainian territory since November 2022.

Speaking at the Yalta European Security Conference in Kyiv, Kellogg revealed he and the chairman, Air Force Gen. Dan Caine, each reassured the president of Moscow’s wilting position roughly six weeks ago — shortly before Trump’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.

“I responded quite forcefully, and I finally said, ‘Mr. President, don’t just listen to me. Your chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Dan Caine, is outside. He’s out in the hall, bring him in and ask him that question. He’s your senior, he’s your principal military adviser,'” Kellogg said.

“And he did, and Dan said the same thing. He went, ‘Nope, not winning.'”

ROFL.

There's a lot of overlap between the movement that killed Charlie Kirk and the movement to crush Russia. Dissidents to the leftist globalist elites cannot be tolerated.

Kellogg knows Putin’s goal was to subjugate Ukraine, with 80% free and Russians only able to advance at a glacial pace with huge losses, Putin has lost the war.

New Bloomberg data showing Russia's total territorial gains since January 2024 amount to 1.05% of Ukraine.

In this time, Russia lost over 700,000 troops.

At this pace, it would take russia 80 more years and the lives of 56 million troops to occupy all of Ukraine.

That’s why a military conflict between the US and Russia would immediately go thermal. Yeah, Putin is that crazy. The same with China.

There are no dissidents in Russia. They are either dead or in jail.

With Russian attacks reduced to motorcycle Mad Max style attacks in Ukraine, yes we would definitely kick Russian a**

Trump must position MAGA/MAHA to win the next several elections. The next elections are key to America’s survival. If we enter the war it will be most assuredly be used by the democrats and republicans(Uni-party) against Trump. They will hammer him on it and it will give them an issue to win on.

Overall, experienced Ukrainian soldiers are probably the best soldiers in the world.

They are all too stupid to see whose side they are on. The people that want to fight Russia are quite free to go over to Ukraine and enlist at any time to lose their lives for some shathole full of corruption.
