It's mostly a ploy for Trump to manufacture a good reason to get the US out of supporting Ukraine. He's looking for a way to reduce the backlash to a minimal level. Same plan as the last time when Zelensky was at the white house.

Other countries taking it seriously doesn't matter too much to Trump here.

You may be right, but I don't think he's even as organized as that. I think he's just wandering around playing big boy and pooping on himself, as he usually does.

IMO his potential successor is even worse, basically a plant of turds like Thiel, with Yarvin and Land as philosophical inspirations, and goals to create a corporate fascist state, that will most certainly ally with Russia simply due to striking ideological similarities.
