“Time to let Vlad send the Ukraine back to the stone ages.”

Yes. And after Putin destroys All of Ukraines’ cities, towns, and villages and farmland and buries many of its people in mass graves, he can put the Ukrainian people that survive in slave labor camps.

Then he can hold a big celebration and invite all his Nork, Chechen, and Putinista allies from the USA to join him to goose step across Red Square.

And a good time will be had by all!

And the killing of Russians in Syria and the immoral overthrow of Assad resulted in the implementation of brutal Sharia Law and the massacre of thousands of Christians in Syria.

But that’s just fine, correct? After all, the “HOLY” Ukraine comes first.

I think you can thank Biden for that.

"After the ungrateful Zelensky pulled his little stunt in the White House Trump should have pulled the plug right there and then."

**************************************************************************

No. He should have pulled the plug on January 20, 2025.

I hope Trump realizes that his most successful Russia policies were when he was implementing policies that killed Russian soldiers in combat.

The last thing Trump needs to do is double down on Biden's failed policies and move us closer to a hot war with Russia and WW III in war that has nothing to do with our national security.

“The pissing contest between Zelensky and Putin is never going to end. Spend your time and energy on America’s problems, President Trump. We need you.”

I agree. It’s time to withdraw from this mess and leave Russia and Ukraine to their own devices.

The Obama Biden team pushed soft Ukraine policy. Trump switched to lethal aid such as javelins. He should do his successful policy again. Putin will cave if he does.

Q: “Zelensky is saying today that he is hoping for you to impose new sanctions on Russia. Are you considering that?”

TRUMP: “That’s going to be my determination. That’s going to be nobody else’s determination. We’ll see how Russia behaves.”

Yes!

One of the main reason he’s trying to end it is that he wants the killing and dying to stop.

But some of these Slavs on here seem to lust after it. There’s one on this thread who keeps going on about killing and death. I picture these ghoulish people with blood dripping from their fangs.

“Europe wants no part of this. I don’t think they have the stones to stand up to Putin. Not in any real sense, anyway.”

That’s right. They want to hide behind us. Let good old Uncle Sucker do the dirty work and pay the price. Eurofags are too smart and sophisticated for that. Send those dumb Kansas farm boys while they sit at home and sneer behind their backs.

I agree. I understand that Trump has confidence in his ability as a deal maker, but neither Z nor Putin want to make a deal, so there’s that. Even Trump can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.

Russia already controls the vast majority of land in the oblasts Putin is demanding. Reports are Russia is pouring shitloads more troops into these area now. The war can continue until they physically drive the Ukrainians out and hundreds of thousands more die or Zelensky can concede they have lost now and move on. We know how the grifters roll though. The point is Zelensky is making demands he is not in any position to make…. And Putin like it or not is in the drivers seat. Saying Putin is making impossible non-starter demands is pure hypocrisy….

“Percentage of the four regions Russia controls As of April 30th

And Russia is gaining more everyday

Luhansk Oblast: 99.292%
Zaporizhzhia Oblast: 73.016%
Donetsk Oblast: 70.709%
Kherson Oblast: 69.137%”

Russia victorious ! What are the latest figures ?

Russia does not yet control the major cities of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson, nor are they across the Dnipro River. They have been trying to advance for over two years now with only marginal success and at high cost. It would be a mistake to think that a Russian victory is inevitable.

Additionally, evacuation from the four oblasts is only for a temporary ceasefire. Putin is demanding much more for a peace agreement, demands that would be the end of Ukraine as an independent country. Russia’s extreme demands will mean that Ukraine will continue to fight with or without US support.

Allegedly, they have the 3rd chromosome.

Yes, Trump has found out first hand how difficult it is to end a blood feud. This is Hatfields and McCoys stuff. Sometimes you just have to let them duke it out. They literally hate each other.

If it is a feud, it is one sided. Ukraine was not bothering Russia and just wants to be left alone. It is Russia that is insisting on intervening in Ukraine.
