Trump's Ukraine envoy Kellogg: "[..] hitting a mule with a 2x4 across the nose, you got their attention."
-
Kellogg was asked to explain why US support "paused" and offered this metaphor, referring with "mule" to Ukraine (but also very much all of Europe).
imo this statement is so malicious on multiple levels... really left me stunned (probably as intended). Has Kellogg previously used such a wording/picture?

This is fucking abject. Trump's mouthpieces trying real hard to pretend like the war in Ukraine is entirely the fault of the Ukrainian people and treating with contempt, for what ? Getting invaded and bravely resisting the enemy coming to kill them on the frontline and their homes ? Getting betrayed by their strongest military ally ? While Russia, the country sending wave after wave of soldiers, missiles and drones to kill Ukrainians in their own country, by some twist of their mind, bears no responsibility for the continuing of this war.
"They got themselves to blame" ? For not wanting to capitulate without conditions after 3 years of war and deadly sacrifices, and giving away their natural resources to the US for nothing in return ?
I will never forget how perfidiously the US is currently acting no matter how many years pass, and I think many others in Europe won't either. -
