    Lol, he's offering Russia part of Ukraine AND America now, while buying right into Russia's propaganda that Alaska should belong to Russia too?

    Even though we could literally kick Russia out whenever we wanted with adequate military aid.

    What a weak little bitch.

    There is genuinely a world where "Why do you keep going to war? Fear of a lack of resources? Let's make a deal to prioritize some paid contracts to you so that we can create an economic dependence and have a bigger lever the next time you are a dumb shit" is the outcome and... that would be a genuinely beautiful outcome and a long term solution to putin. Yes, it is rewarding "bad behavior". But anything short of a full military occupation AND continued occupation (rather than leaving a puppet regime to get taken out by insurrection five minutes after we leave) is just kicking the can down the road.

    But this is trump and he has never found a business he couldn't bankrupt. So just give strong daddy putin the state that sort of limits his actions and all the resources in exchange for... turning Ukraine into Gaza.

    Wait, he was willing to take Greenland by force for their resources, and now he's giving up America's?? Was he just planning on turning Greenland over to Putin in the first place?

    Fuck no.

    In a less broken society, Trump would be on trial right now for treason.

    Maybe he wants Russia's help taking over Canada. You know, get them to play bad cop so Trump can play good cop offering protection, for a price.

    It's a nice country you've got there; it'd be a shame if it were invaded by those Russians at the border...

    Okay. I've seen links to this a few times now...

    Didn't we buy Alaska from Russia? (Yes we did)

    This is either the weirdest case of buyer's remorse, or yet another ginned up controversy.

    OK so... Not that its stopped him before, but can he legally do this? Is this within the powers of the presidency?

    So, that means Putin has copies of the Epstein Papers and recordings to blackmail Trump with? It's ALL about the Epstein Papers.

    They keep saying these things are a distraction. From what? Not like the american public is doing anything notably effective otherwise.

    What is with this article? I've read previous pravda UA articles that were good, but this one just seems like something an LLM spat out after being asked to summarize the cited Telegraph article. There is no additional context offered, everything is in this list-like/chopped up format, and the last subheading ("conclusion" I presume) seems to have been left in Ukrainian or Russian (I can't read either). At least one quote wasn't even properly attributed to anyone. My guess then is that it's just a direct copy-paste of an LLM response. I hope this is just a single "journalist" not doing their job rather than a trend at the outlet.

    If Trump could chortle Putins shrivelled ball sack any harder, he’d probably be sent back in time to the 1980’s when he was recruited as a Russian spy.

    Jesus Fucking Christ Americans are weak.

    It's sort of an odd position that exists right now in the anti Trump world.

    I think the cavorting with Putin is definitely problematic but if I spoke about my reasons why it wouldn't likely resonate with anyone pro-trump.

    However, if you point out his "beta" moves it seems to cut a bit deeper or resonate with the folks near the fence and might be more effective at moving the needle.

    BUT then you have used "man-o-sphere" language to convince folks and that in and of itself is a dangerous space to occupy or push folks towards.

    So then need to consider if the bully language is more of a backpedal or is it worth it to get the result folks are looking for.

    It's just a whole lot of unpleasant and hasn't even hit upon the host of other troubling problems that are happening or looming.

    It's bad in a way that makes me feel like we won't see any reform untill there is massive upheaval.

    So not sure if trying to call out/downvoting the fellow raging against the machine is the real solution but if it works for you I'm glad.

    Not ment to be a criticism of your post, just wanted to type out the thought, I don't usually post but find writing stuff out helps me cope/think through the ick.
