'Panic' in Ukraine as leaked confidential Trump peace plan astounds: report
-
I honestly despise the fact that this man (as well as Musk) has made me into a bitter person who hates. I don't want to hate anyone. I can feel it destroying my soul (or whatever you want to fucking call it).
-
mine nothing
So just kill their own economy?
-
Except that one time he had that meeting with Putin without translators, and he ate the notes.
No, this is not a joke. I may be conflating two events.
-
Should bring up the whole administration on RICO charges.
-
Yep. The other option is to be ignorant of all the fucked up shit they do which isn't any better
-
I don't care to comment stalk anyone. If there's a bit or some style choice going on that's fine. It'd be slightly curious to learn about the process, but it's fine if not.
-
I am so fucking embarrassed to be an American. Fuck this country and its “leaders”
-
I wonder if Taiwan is mulling over a peaceful reunification with China as a result of this mess. Their independence depends in large part on US support, but with Trump at the helm they're likely to face extortion when they need it most.
-
It doesn't matter if the USA promises liberation from Russia, protection for eternity and the cure for cancer... the word of the USA means less than nothing now...
Ukraine has the same chance of benefiting if they just help that poor Nigerian Prince and use the resulting reward to buy weapons

The Telegraph noted, “Trump’s demands would amount to a higher share of Ukrainian GDP than reparations imposed on Germany at the Versailles Treaty, later whittled down at the London Conference in 1921, and by the Dawes Plan in 1924.”
This is an extraordinarily bad move.
I'm glad to see steps taken toward the war ending, but this is the sort of Big Mac diplomacy that's just patently moronic. Trump seems to think he can just order up what he wants and it's going to magically happen without any negative consequences.

I know exactly what you mean!
-
Unfortunately, they are not 100% the problem. Certain groups of loyal citizens put them there.
So while I agree, fuck every politician in office, let's not forget to give credit where credit is due to the "american" people.
And don't tell me those same people are just brainwashed. No, those same people would have put a fascist in power regardless of how educated they are. Evangelicals are just clueless and even the smart ones suck cheeto dick.

Sounds like my parents' pastor
-
Trump has already directed the removal of language saying Taiwan is NOT independent (pissing off the Chinese) and is trying to scale back the CHIPS Act (making us more dependent on Taiwan). Putting those two things together with this "deal" for Ukraine, it feels to me like he is setting us up for a Chinese invasion of Taiwan where he can make a similar "deal" with Taiwan where we protect them in exchange for 50% of their chip making profits.
-
Like I simply could not believe he thinks he could add that. Even the most tyrannical warlords of the past didn't demand that much tribute from people they conquered. The Mongols and Romans would blush at this shit.
-
I'm not sure you read what that person wrote correctly.
-
So openly declaring war on all of Europe?
-
As an American I'm not embarrassed. The whole world should have seen this coming. This country elected Trump in 2020. Americans showed you what type of time they're on. When he lost re-election Americans tried to force his presidency. The Democrats were too weak while they had power, always trying to take the high road. If any country is still dumb enough to really on the US for anything then they get what they get.
-
Does that seem out of the realm of possibility now?
-
Don't be embarrassed for the actions of poloticians. We only have the illusion of choice in the US. You can be embarrassed for the human race if you like. Cause "leaders" like this exist in the first place.
