WASHINGTON — President Trump no longer plans to hold a second in-person summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin “in the immediate future” after Russia rejected Trump’s demand to stop the war in Ukraine along the current battle lines.

“I don’t want to have a wasted meeting,” Trump told reporters Tuesday afternoon when asked why he axed the sitdown. “I don’t want to have a waste of time

Trump has no reason to continue with the little POS. Putin is a mad dog killer.

I don’t think Putin is crazy. I think he is misreading reality.

Probably getting bad intelligence. It is a real problem for dictators. People become afraid of giving them bad news.

Heh. Putin doesn’t realize Trump isn’t going to cut him any slack. Look for Tomahawks to be shipped to Ukraine. Look for a tight embargo.

Good will is gone.

Perhaps, but the real reason to rejoice will be the elimination of thousands more Russian soldiers and their equipment.

So, that makes it okay that Ukrainians are being slaughtered in a war they can't win?

You don't think that attitude is least bit sociopathic?

No, I know who YOU stand with and certainly not those of us that believe in an American First foreign policy.

There is no national interest in Ukraine except from the elite (like Soros and the Bidens) that have made money there.

I certainly believe most of those posting pro-Ukrainian propaganda here are being paid to do so.

Just so you know, rrrod, I am 82 years old, and I have had grandfathers, fathers, and sons in harm’s way - and enough of this shit that we have to go fight all these wars “over there”.

Russia was an ally in WW2, and we could be again. We actually have more in common with the people of Russia at this point in history than we do with the leaders of Ukraine (many of whom are Nazi sympathizers, as I read in some histories)

There is no point in us getting involved at this point, and if we just stop, then maybe they will be forced to compromise - to start building instead of destroying.

Our forefathers were correct - no entangleing alliances! I don’t think we should be sending our weapons.. Why waste weapons by supporting dumbassses who think they can win by making us fight their war using our weapons and money.

Stop arguing for the slaughter and waste of so many lives. It doesn’t become you.
