No matter what deal I make with respect to Russia/Ukraine, no matter how good it is, even if it’s the greatest deal ever made, The Failing New York Times will speak BADLY of it. Liddle’ Peter Baker, the very biased and untalented writer for The Times, followed his Editor’s demands and wrote that Ukraine should get back territory, including, I suppose, Crimea, and other ridiculous requests, in order to stop the killing that is worse than anything since World War II. Why doesn’t this lightweight reporter say that it was Obama who made it possible for Russia to steal Crimea from Ukraine without even a shot being fired. It was also Liddle’ Peter who wrote an absolutely fawning, yet terribly written Biography, on Obama. It was a JOKE! Did Baker ever criticize the Obama Crimea Giveaway? NO, not once, only TRUMP, and I’ve had nothing to do with this stupid war, other than early on, when I gave Ukraine Javelins, and Obama gave them sheets. This is Sleepy Joe Biden’s War, not mine. It was a loser from day one, and should have never happened, and wouldn’t have happened if I were President at the time. I’m just trying to clean up the mess that was left to me by Obama and Biden, and what a mess it is. With all of that being said, there was no reason for Putin to be shooting missiles into civilian areas, cities and towns, over the last few days. It makes me think that maybe he doesn’t want to stop the war, he’s just tapping me along, and has to be dealt with differently, through “Banking” or “Secondary Sanctions?” Too many people are dying!!!

-The president of the United States of America, ladies and gentlemen.

It kinda reminds me of the Fireside Chats, except it's an endless stream of rambling, idiotic banalities from a total lunatic. It's like if Mussolini had a Twitter account

He unilaterally tariffed the rest of world and allies without any meeting with allies, tariffed first before talking.

But for Putin, he is talk first before sanction, not even sanctions just a warning..

Trumpism:

Ukraine should concede Crimea and anything else Russia wants - but Obama should never have let Russia take Crimea!

If you elect me, I'll have a deal made on day one - but whatever deal I make they won't take it, it's all Biden's fault!

I'm going to put tariffs on every country in the world except Russia because things are already so tough for them - but they won't listen to me, somebody needs to sanction Russia!

I think Ukraine needs to apologize to Russia for instigating such an aggressive war - but why won't anyone acknowledge how smart I am on foreign policy?

As a Russian asset, Trump is required to regurgitate what Putin wants and claim it as his own thought
