US President Donald Trump says Russia has made a “pretty big concession” to end the war in Ukraine by stopping short of taking the “whole country.”

Look at the stupid America has unleashed on the world.
Put your dicks away, you’re stinking up the place.
I hate that so many in my country are oblivious to the repercussions of electing this monster.
Maybe half of you shouldn’t of stayed home to ‘punish Kamala’?
People who didn’t vote are just as guilty as those who voted for Trump.
Girl you’re preaching to the goddamn choir here. I’m so fucking sick of saying “I fucking told you so, dipshit” to so many people. I’m so, so tired.
Hey now, it was slightly more than a third, not half!
Especially the ones who refused to vote for her on the basis of the genocide in Palestine as if Trump wasn’t just as bad or worse in supporting Israel and as if the American establishment hadn’t always supported Israel. That idea that somehow not voting for her in that election would improve a single thing about that genocide was so stupid.
I was saying as if everyone before Biden was also supporting Israel, somehow Israel became such big news around election year
It doesn’t really matter if Israel became news, the only thing relevant to the election should have been if voting Harris, Trump or not voting was likely to have different outcomes for the topic of the genocide and there was no reason to believe that there was a chance of that.
Okay I’ll take the bait. Thought we’re done with this bullshit discussion.
Maybe Kamala should have given a fuck about Palestinians. Why do you leave out the part where she showed the middle finger to her own voters whenever she could, same as Biden? People have been telling the dems for a year to support Palestine or lose their vote, but the dems were willing to lose the election over Palestine and they did. The democrats betrayed their voters, not the other way around.
I guess those voters gave no fucks about either Palestinians or Ukrainians, considering both of those genocides have gotten worse under Trump.
Nice deflection. Classic “blame the voter” propaganda. You’re using a false dilemma to avoid addressing the actual issue: Dems actively funded and supported the genocide despite massive protests from their base.
Trump being bad doesn’t absolve Harris/Dems of responsibility for their own actions. Democratic leadership chose genocide over winning. They gambled that voters had no choice but to vote for them anyway. They lost that bet.
And with this I’m out, no time for blue MAGA.
The Democrats do not, and have never supported genocide.
Funny, because the Republican party enthusiastically endorses genocide at home and abroad and apparently that is not worth any outcry or opposition according to you.
MAGA cosplaying as a ‘concerned’ Democrat.
There are three voting conditions. Red, blue, no vote (generally, discounting third parties). That means non vote is half as impactful as an opposite vote. So they are about half as guilty.
I’m sorry for us.
Oh if they could, they would
I was about to say, they tried. They have been trying for three years. They’ve committed a TON more forces than Ukraine, and still haven’t made significant progress. The invasion is a military failure on pretty much every level, and it’s only the most delusional that think Russia still has any chance of actually pulling off a successful annexation or occupation for any significant length of time.
I hate this timeline. I hate that my manager, a WOMAN, voted for this POS. Every post I make on Facebook about what he did today is an indirect laser beamed thought to her “this is YOUR fault!”
I can’t believe a woman would vote freely, this is insane
I can’t believe a woman would vote against her own self interest, and also for an adjudicated rapist
F’ing crazy world we live in where someone can be duped into voting for things that directly hurt themselves/others like them.
Over the many years I’ve been on this planet, I’ve learned that humans are unfortunately easy to fool - especially in large groups.
I think you’re talking to one.
They won’t be able to soon if that voting bill happens.
Things a rapist would say.
He could have killed her too, but he ONLY raped her. What a beneficent act. /s
Exactly where my mind went as well.
Bet he’s thought about it.
It’s even dumber than that. Because, using the same parallel, he didn’t do it only because she kicked him in the balls and pulled out a knife (meaning: Ukraine defended itself, it was not Moscow’s decision to stop).
She should thank him, actally…
Things a rapist is saying
Trump the coward. The definition of ‘getting peace’ is to just make the smaller side capitulate to the bigger one. And then act surprised when said peace doesn’t hold long.
No surprises that Russia is volunteering to mediate the Iran-US conflict either. Friends always watch each other’s backs.
A mediator doesn’t take sides. It’s the most basic principle. If you’re gonna do that - taking the easiest and cowardly way - just step aside and let more competent people handle it before you make an even bigger mess. Some ‘help’ simply isn’t worth the hassle.
And Russia did not take more land for a simple reason - not because of concessions or kindness, but because the small David held their ground against the Goliath invading them. It’s that simple, nepo crybaby.
This man is just so unbelievably stupid. smh.
Much kindness, such wow
When he dies it’s going to be the party of the century
After he leaves office, I don’t really want to think about him again.
I’m hoping the good lord takes him home soon
And leave us with Vance? It’s the same incompetence.
Vance doesn’t have the cult following and won’t be able to garner the loyalty. Cults always fail apart when they lose their leader
True. Maga hates the man. As soon as he’s no longer “under Trump’s guidance” he won’t be able to afford much.
The Republicans will be all too busy backstabbing each other for the foreseeable future in such a scenario. Trump is in the position he is in now because a majority of GOP voters have a stupid fucking cultish worship of him and nobody else. They tried pushing for other less erratic GOP candidates, but they had managed to brainwash their moronic voters so effectively that they are no longer capable of worshipping anyone else but Trump.
As soon as he is gone, it is going to be a free-for-all among the Republicans, an absolute clusterfuck of a fight to become the next Trump and Vance is not going to be even remotely close to being a candidate for that. He is Trumps pick because he is a spineless vapid non-entity with even less brains than Trump himself. He will not be in a position to do much except getting betrayed by his own party for the rest of the term.
All this is true, bit Vance is the vice president, if Trump goes, we’re stuck with him for the remainder of Trumps term.
Do not forget that he is thinking about a third term!
Doesn’t he sell Trump 2028 and rewrite the rules? That’s more than just thinking about it.
Fuck the US. It’s on the same level as Russia and China for me at this point.
China’s honestly gone up a rank, and that isn’t because it has changed
Concession? They tried to do exactly that and are still trying.
Trump really is a Russian
I guess by that standard, I made a “pretty big concession” by not doing that 3rd push-up. I totally could have, promise.
The world is held hostage by three sociopaths, Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu. Two of them are war criminals, and the third is waiting to happen at any moment.
I don’t want to excuse Netanyahu here. He certainly belongs behind bars in my opinion. However, he only holds a part of the world hostage rather than all of it. I see him on par with folks like Kim Jon Un or Mohamed bin Salman rather than Trump or Putin.
And yet, Israel has practically dictated US Foreign Policy in the Middle East, which is a theater of conflict in which everyone is playing, including China.
Israel is like a city in US. They have 10 million population. They are local, not global players.
I fully expected you to say Xi
Their reach through American proxies is larger than their population.
I agree, the third big single powerful person is certainly Xi. I suppose one can say the “sociopath” is more evident with Netanyahu than Xi, because for now China is able to sit back and let Russia and USA self sabotage to a weaker position while mucking with the rest of the world, while China gets to play comparative good guy in foreign policy. This is of course grading on a curve, they aren’t saints either.
What is this?! Nuanced thoughts that recognise that everyone is an arsehole? On my internet?!
💛
Exactly my thoughts
And china made a yuge concession by not simply cutting off all US trade and instead just levying tariffs.
How kind of Putin. USA is truly a Russia’s oblast.
Not the USA, just the idiots temporarily in control.
And who put them there?
Not for the lack of trying
China already buying parts of Russia, only need to wait til they seize most of it, just call it northern manchuria
China is going to come out of as the big winner in this story, compounded by the US going full rtard on the world trade level.
In the US there is this new slur “Trump hater”, which is apparently a negative trait to have…I think it is supposed to mean you’re clinically insane…Because who in their right mind doesn’t love Trump??
The audacity of this motherfucker.
Who stopped them, motherfucker?
Just what a treasonous Russian stooge would say.
Exactly what Putin’s bitch would say. Not surprising.
For someone who claims to be an old school masculine individual he is an incredibly insecure whore.
If the Chinese leader acted like this they would be lighting police stations on fire. Why are Americans limp dicked?
In regards to that Ukraine has already made an extremely huge concession by not assassinating putin and all his officers.
What concession is Russia making in regards to occupying crimea and Donbas though?
if Russia could have seized all of Ukraine they would have already what a load of shit
Anybody but Trump would have died of shame long ago.
That’s a world I’d like to live in. Where asshole grifters could just die of shame. No more grifters.
Problem is, if they could feel shame they wouldn’t be asshole grifters.
What you describe is a feature, not a bug.
Its not a concession. They tried. they came very close to accomplishing their goal. But because of the outcomes of the battles of Irpin, Bucha, Hostomel Airport, and one of the most critical battles of the entire war, Moschun, Russia was defeated and lost their opportunity to quickly topple the government.
In short. They didnt concede. They got their asses handed to them. And played it off as an act of mercy when they ran away with their tails between their legs.
Funny way of saying they tried and failed.
Something something 2 week special operation.
By the same logic democrats have made a big concession and a favour to you by not winning the elections
Does he know what concession means?
He knows the con part
And cess since he came from a pool of one
That’s where you buy the hamberders right
Its been so painfully obvious this man’s been Putin’s bitch since 2016, there’s a reason people were suspecting Russia interfered with that election, his supporters denied it, and now that he’s openly supporting all of his asslickers showing support as well and following their herd like the good obedient sheep they are.
He’s been Russia’s bitch since at least 1987.
Let’s give thanks to daddy Vlad.
Then Islamic terrorists made big conncession by not hijacking every airplane and crush it into building.
