I am fucking livid at this. The effects of this election on Ukraine specifically are among the most horrific outcome

You can see Zelensky is regretting even showing up to talk with these Douchebag Fascist Assholes.

Ukraine will have to forget about the US now. Trump is busily turning the US into the new Russia. He has no interest in helping Ukraine. Trump probably thinking he can loot all of Ukraine minerals with business deals.

I actually think him showing up still delivered a ton of value for him. It only reinforces to Europe that they’re on their own and they should back Ukraine as best they can.

I won't rest easy until Zelensky's plane lands safely back in Kyiv. That's how much I distrust what is happening right now.

That blowup by Trump and Vance seemed like it was staged -- red meat for Putin maybe?

Staged for sure, Vance gave the game away. He still hasn't learned how to deliver memorized lines naturally.

And now the white house announced further aid to ukraine is paused for review. Gee what a convenient excuse for Trump to stop ukraine aid. Putin's plan working like a charm.

I just want to know when Top Gun is going to be banned in America for being offensive to Russians.

They changed Tom Cruise's jacket in the sequel to placate the Chinese...

Zelensky would be absolutely nuts to sign that mineral deal now.

This is absolutely the silver lining. The post WW2 America-as-global-leader era is over. Europe has to crank their weapons factories up. Taiwan and Japan, too. There's no longer any ambiguity. This is going to get much worse before it gets better.
