Trump claims he could solve Ukraine war in ‘24 hours’ and would build ‘impenetrable dome’ over US
The Independent ^ | January 27, 2023 | Graeme Massie

Posted on 01/28/2023 9:17:03 AM PST by Golden Eagle

Donald Trump says he would build an “impenetrable dome” to protect the US from nuclear missile attacks as he also claimed he could end the Russian invasion of Ukraine “within 24 hours.”

The one-term president released a video saying that foreign powers were now openly “using the nuclear word all the time” because “they have no respect for our leadership.”

Mr Trump added that “it is a word you are never allowed to use” and insisted it had never been said when he was in the White House.

...

The video came a day after Mr Trump took to Truth Social to suggest that he had the ability to stop Vladimir Putin’s almost yearlong unprovoked attack on Ukraine.

"I would be able to negotiate an end to this horrible and rapidly escalating war within 24 hours."

He could? That would be great, but those are pretty incredible claims, each on their own. If only the election were today, instead of 2 years away.

Maybe he plans to assassinate Zelensky and Putin and let sane people resolve things.

No such thing as a 100% perfect defense system.

IF he could end the war he should go ahead and do it now. That'd give him a position of strength in the campaign.

Just stop laundering money through Ukraine, give Crimea to Russia and hang the olive drab wearing tranny midget grifter and call it a day.

I can just hear the squealing idiots who take things like that literally mocking the idea of an “Iron Dome” like system in the U.S. right, claiming that Trump is suggesting building a physical dome right now.

I’d like to hear his plan for deporting fifty million foreign nationals.

Truly the elephant in the room.

“He could?”

If anyone could it would be Trump.

I have no doubt he could do those things.

What he can't do is manage personnel. He needs to hire Steve Banon back, and listen to him. His administration was poisoned by ass clowns and chameleons and leakers. Yet against those odds he managed to accomplish a lot.

He could solve it. But I don’t want the dome, thanks.

Trumps efforts sound good, but unless it is built on a solid platform of Peace ( negotiations, diplomacy, counsel from many) it will be doomed.

Question: Does he need anyone’s permission to negotiate between the 2 belligerents? He ain’t gonna get it from Biden.

Stolen elections have consequences..

Some could argue the world would look different if Trump was there in the White House, and those that really play footsie with the likes of China, Russia and Ukraine, would be swinging from a tree somewhere in DC instead, of ruling it..

Undermine the war madness, right now. If Trump calls for peaceful public protests against it, I am there.

Vlad takes his army home.

No more new members in NATO.

Let the Krauts and the Limeys et al do a Marshall Plan in Ukraine. It’s their turn.

Forget Superman.

We’ve got...

SuperTrump!!!

But, I believe he can do it.

We have the technology and the smarts to do it. It just takes a good leader to make it happen.

BTW, the Ukraine matter was solved before Biden screwed everything up.

Well, if he had the executive powers of the POTUS now, instead of that imbecile now schlepping around the Rose Garden, I’m confident he would be doing all in his power to end it! And that’s the point.

Biden and Zelensky would get the credit.

Yes... The same kind of literalism that went nuts when Trump said illegal alien kids were being amuggled into the country by coyotes.
