The U.S. president, who most recently met Zelensky in Paris in December, criticized his Ukrainian counterpart for resisting Russia at the start of the invasion instead of cutting a deal.

"Zelensky... shouldn’t have allowed this to happen either. He’s no angel," Trump said.

Imagine wanting to defend your home...

Some of us won't have to imagine once the Redshirts get organized.

Trump has never had to think about defending anything, he's always been coddled and protected by first his parents, then his wealth (given to him by his parents).

So this means nothing to him. He's actually an ignorant, stupid, old man that genuinely cannot understand this concept.

Does Trump mean like when Ukraine cut Russia a deal to give back the Soviet Nukes, and Russia promised it would respect Ukraine's sovereignty? That kind of deal that Russia makes lying through its teeth?

Traitorapist Trump doesn't care about that.

Says the rapist, felon, insurrectionist leader, fraudster. No angels in him whatsoever! What a stain all over the US. Talking this nonsense too.

perhaps we should have cut a deal with the japanese back in 1941.

Ok, so Trump has officially called an end to castle doctrine?

That will go over well with his voters...

this is the drumbeat trump is laying down, if you listen they'll get closer together and louder, until he says he wouldn't blame russia if it raised kyiv to the ground and take it all. i give it a month.

Someone should take Mar-A-Lago and refuse to give it back to Trump.
