Donald Trump plainly has access to real information like this.He understands that Ukraine is losing this conflict and losing it badly.

So, according to certain actors on the FR since DJT isn’t in the bag for the Ukraine then he must be a Putinista. Who knew DJT was really Putin’s guy after all?

This Russian at the link has some views on Putin and I think he’s right. If so, then the West is totally misreading what’s going on. Putin sees himself AS RUSSIA. An insult to Putin is an insult to Russia. Louie the Fourteenth said, “”L’État, c’est moi” - The State? I am the State (Carlyle’s rendering into English)”

People with talk radio shows don’t understand it either. They think politicans who want to secure our border are the problem and think going to gun shows and mailing a bunch of guns to Ukraine is going to fix everything.

Trump's statement does not make sense.

This war is about the long term, not the short term. Whoever wins will have control over these disputed areas for decades. For Ukrainian particular, the combination of surrendering a bunch of its territory and not being permitted to join a defensive military alliance means it is likely just a matter of time until Russia rearms, retools, and moves to gobble up the rest of the country. As Putin himself has stated publicly, he does not believe Ukraine is even a legitimate country or has a right to exist. So the Ukrainians uses as ultimately a war for national survival.

In other words, Ukraine rightly does not believe that Putin would abide by any agreements that were reached. Any security guarantees made by Russia would not be worth the paper on which they were printed. Given that, they have no real incentive to agree to Russian terms.

There have been discussions between Russia and the Ukraine and they went nowhere. What sort of deal would Trump propose?

Trump is right in line with Noam Chomsky: Ukrainians need to submit to genocide.

I get that this is Trump’s statement but linking it back to the La Rouche PAC is not a good look.

This is how responsible, moral leader would be handling this situation.

Those that agree with the Biden regime and want to continue to have Ukraine fight until tens of thousands die and the country is the equivalent of a parking lot just to stick to Russia are evil.

The Biden regime and globalists WANTED this war. They hoped to destroy with it. They failed. And, it's time to the humane thing, save lives, preserve what is left of the western part of the country and stop using Ukraine to poke the Russian bear.

Trump ran on America first meaning less foreign entanglements, so I would have been surprised if he thought we should be getting involved in the Ukraine conflict.

I got no problem with The Presidents statement.
I didn't like the genocide comment yesterday. What I have learned about Trump is to give him 48 hours to "clarify" his statements. Smart Guy, and will always be my President, and always have my Vote. Let ‘em fight it out until someone cries Uncle.
NO U.S. involvement, and I'm good with it.

Russia is destroying the country they would have to rebuild. It makes no sense.

Russia/Putin want to seize parts of Ukraine (if not all of it) and they want to kill/enslave/oppress the ethnic Ukrainians whom they’ve demonized as Nazis.

Not sure where the room for compromise is here.

Ukraine will not win this war.
I do believe diplomacy or at least a major stalemate will be met by the end of this year.

Trump’s idiotic support of Mehmet Oz was the final nail for me to dump him.
