Donald Trump has said Vladimir Putin was “doing what anybody would do” after Russia launched a massive missile and drone strike on Ukraine days after the US cut off vital intelligence and military aid to Kyiv.
Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Friday Trump said he finds it “easier” to work with Russia than Ukraine and that Putin “wants to end the war”.
“I’m finding it more difficult, frankly, to deal with Ukraine. And they don’t have the cards,” Trump said. “In terms of getting a final settlement, it may be easier dealing with Russia.”
Asked whether the Russian leader was taking advantage of the pause in US intelligence sharing and military aid to Ukraine, Trump replied: “I actually think he is doing what anybody else would do.”
Traitors one and all and history will remember them as such. I’m Canadian and as angry as I am about the huge mess happening between my country and the USA, I’m even angrier about Ukraine. At least Canadians aren’t being killed or having tens of thousands of our children stolen away. I cannot understand the eagerness with which MAGA has embraced Putin. Looking at history until now, I never thought siding with a dictatorial warmongering Russia would be a core Republican value.
Guy would have sided with Hitler. Why won’t Britain surrender, Hitler just wants to end the war!
I mean, if Putin just wants to stop fighting, he could completely just you know: stop fucking fighting.
He’s the invader. He’s the fucking aggressor. Ukraine would happily stop fighting as they don’t want to fight.
Donald Trump is top tier fucking stupid and top tier Russian asset.
Russia almost cannot “stop” if it means getting nothing. If they do Putin will lose support and money from his oligarchs/bitches.

That’s Putin’s problem. Let him join the defenstration-fest, the bloodthirsty greedhead, and Trump with him.
I actually thought we should’ve had Putin assassinated years ago, but nobody cares what I think. I’m just an asshole who got kicked off of Reddit 
you forget that people like that have literal legions that their sole job is to protect a persons life. not just bodyguards, but intelligence agents who’s sole job it is , is to prepare for any kind of credible threat.
and remember russia is a country that has an entire militarized police force that its only real job, is to keep the boot on the neck of not the people, but the russian military, so that they dont get any funny ideas about revolting.
Would he, though?
Everyone who believes this shit is a victim of severe brainwashing. Nobody, not even an actual mental retard, would believe what Trump and putin are saying. It’s because Trump followers are victims of brainwashing. They are mentally ill.
I mean, if Putin just wants to stop fighting, he could completely just you know: stop fucking fighting.
I cannot imagine a world in which Russia withdraws from the front lines and Ukrainian militants just call it a day. Way too much blood on the ground for people to just turn themselves off and call it done.
If Putin extended an offer that didn’t involve him eating the barrel of his own gun, Zelenskyy’s own guys would lynch him for taking it.
Well, obviously Ukraine would chase the invaders back to the pre-2014 borders and then stop.
The guy calling for peace thinks it is okay for anyone to want to continue the violence. Fucking brilliant.
Just what a Russian stooge would say.
So 9/11 was what now? What a fucktard.
Transaction: it is what he would do if he thought I could get away with it. Because Trump is the biggest, and most massive piece of shit ever to exist since Hitler.
So, if you would do that too, you are also that big of a piece of shit.
It has been my observation in life that those who blame others for their own actions simply hope others would do that thing in order to make their own transgressions seem more palatable.
Of course, this is an entire series of logical fallacies on top of the fact that most people aren’t pieces of shit.
In short, it’s an obvious lie, and anyone who is pulled in by this obvious lie is a piece of shit just like Trump.
I wouldn’t do it. But then again I’m not a fascist imperialist dictator with delusions of grandeur.
If you’re evil, maybe.
From an American:
Hey Europe, fucking pay attention. We are switching sides. Pax Americana is done. This isn’t the country you thought you knew. We’re going to walk noisy as fuck and carry a stick we’ve whittled away because we wanted to sell parts off of it.
Please don’t assume that everything is going to be alright. It’s not. I don’t want to see you guys go down with us.
There will be some struggles but nobody is going down, there is a big difference between trying to overthrow a government and actually doing it
Nice 2 day account you got there
I hope you’re right, but it’s not looking promising.
Why does Trump think he has any say in a peace deal now that he ended support to Ukraine? It’s not up to him anymore. He chose to step down
“I’m finding it more difficult, frankly, to deal with Ukraine. And they don’t have the cards,” Trump said. “In terms of getting a final settlement, it may be easier dealing with Russia.”
It’s infuriating how stupid he is. Just “my feelings tell me to do X” nonstop, every day, like cultured cells responding to a stimulus shock.
Could he be more of a bitch to Putin? For all his egomaniacal fragile masculinity, he sure excels at being a submissive to Musk and Putin.
2 days. That account you in the comments are arguing with is 2 days old.
Yeah, sometimes I’m just standing in the shower in the morning planning out my day and I think to myself, “I should attack Ukraine.” /s
I play Risk with my friends alot. Trust me. Eurasia cannot be held…
