"Millions have died unnecessarily" BECAUSE RUSSIA INVADED THE GODDAMN COUNTRY. What in the actual $@!? is he even talking about? Pathetic excuse for a human, much less president.

The Fight in Ukraine and its Heroes
- Thread starter Gallipoli
- Start date
In Trump world, the US started WWII after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Pure insanity.
I suppose he thinks that if Ukraine had agreed to be a Russian province immediately then there would have been less deaths. Maybe that is his idea of a business negotiation?
You realize Ukraine started the conflict when they moved their country east of Berlin…

A decent globial view of Russian invasion of Ukraine:
From the National Review... this explains Trump's hostility to Ukraine. Trump is mercurial and petty.
"I instead am going to draw a much straighter, cleaner line to explain Donald Trump’s ferocious hostility toward Ukraine and Zelensky. Donald Trump was once impeached over Ukraine and Zelensky. ....
It’s really that simple. His tone can be explained by personal history more than anything else. Back in 2019, Donald Trump’s presidency — already under siege after a brutal midterm election in the House — was derailed by what he considers to be a spurious impeachment attempt by the Democrats. Trump was arraigned for improperly “interfering with the 2020 election” by pressuring Zelensky to probe the details of Hunter and Joe Biden’s financial entanglements with their government...
From a separate article...
So forgive me if I doubt that Trump is just negotiating like a “great dealmaker” or playing the geopolitical game of a chessmaster by keeping Americans and Europeans alike shockingly off-guard with his intemperate public rhetoric....
Trump is incapable of seeing straight when it comes to America’s long-term national interests in Ukraine, as compared to his private resentments there. ... I have always doubted him on this score, which is why I have always doubted his ability to serve the national interest when it conflicted with his own.

Republican Senators are getting death threats if they don't do what Trump wants. Not shocking, but they knew what they were getting when they didn't put another candidate forward. Or were they getting death threats then, too? Regardless, our country is being run by a mob leader.
DJT is all about what is good for him, he does not care about anything, or anyone else.
This is a very Reaganesque view of the war in Ukraine.
"My fellow Americans,I speak to you today not as a Republican, not as a Democrat, but as an American who believes in freedom, in democracy, and in the sacred duty we have to stand against tyranny wherever it may rise.
For decades, the United States has been a shining city on a hill—a beacon of hope for those oppressed, a defender of liberty, and a friend to those who fight for their own freedom. That is who we are. That is who we have always been. And that is who we must remain.
Today, we see a tyrant in Moscow—Vladimir Putin, a man who mourns the fall of the Soviet Union, not because he seeks peace, but because he longs for empire. A man who crushes dissent, silences opponents, and wages war against a free and sovereign Ukraine.
And yet, we hear voices here at home—some even within our own party—who would rather appease this dictator than oppose him. Who would rather shake his hand than stand firm against his aggression. Who mock and belittle a man like President Zelensky, not because he has failed, but because he has dared to succeed. Because he has dared to resist. Because he has dared to stand on his feet and say, not today, not ever!Let me be clear: America does not cower before tyrants. America does not abandon its allies. America does not betray those who fight for the very ideals upon which this nation was founded.
Some would have us turn inward, retreat from the world stage, and cozy up to those who despise our way of life. But we have seen this story before, and we know how it ends. Weakness invites aggression. Silence encourages oppression. And appeasement? Appeasement is but a prelude to disaster.
So I ask you, my fellow Americans: Shall we stand with the man who jails his critics, poisons his opponents, and invades his neighbors? Or shall we stand with the man who fights—not for conquest, but for the right of his people to live in peace and liberty?If America is to remain the last, best hope of Earth, we must choose wisely. Because the free world still looks to us, as it always has. And I say, as I have always said: Mr. Putin, we will not yield. And Mr. Zelensky, we stand with you.
God bless you, and God bless the United States of America"

I'm sure most of these Republican Senators know just how bad Hegseth, Gabbart, Kennedy and Patel are for their respective positions. They are the worst appointees in history for each position, the Republican Senators have to be afraid for their and/or their family's safety to vote these people in. Most politicians are power hungry, its very discouraging that the Senators and House members are willing to do whatever Trump wants, they no longer have any power and are willing to just give it up. I guess death threats against them and their family explain it.
