Trump, who for years has balked at American support for Ukraine and expressed admiration for Putin, had pledged confidently to bring about an end to the war on his first day back in the White House. Seven months later, after berating Zelenskyy in the Oval Office and stanching the flow of some U.S. military assistance to Kyiv, Trump could not bring Putin even to pause the fighting, as his forces make gains on the battlefield.

Morphine Prince 109,709 Posted August 16, 2025 Author Share Posted August 16, 2025 Trump and Putin rode in the same car and spoke for a while. Trump: "Vladimir Putin said something -- one of the most interesting things. He said 'your election was rigged because you have mail in voting.' He said, 'mail in voting, every election -- no country has mail in voting. It's impossible to have mail in voting and have honest elections.' And he said that to me because we talked about 2020. He said, 'you won that election by so much.'" 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Mayhem 3,449 Posted August 16, 2025 Share Posted August 16, 2025 Trump literally rolled out the red carpet for a war criminal guilty of killing thousands of innocent civilians, kidnapping children, and invading a sovereign nation. Yet, Zelenskyy, America's Ukrainian ally and leader, was scolded in the Oval Office on live television like a 5 year old for...being a victim of a Putins invasion, and not being GRATEFUL and kissing Trump's ass... This is what the world witnessed today... No wonder Putin doesnt respect him...he walked all over Trump today...took some photos...and had ZERO consequences for his actions. Trump failed miserably and the war will continue on... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

27monster27 15,916 Posted August 16, 2025 Share Posted August 16, 2025 He not only rolled out the red carpet, he also flexed US military power by flying a B-2 stealth bomber guarded by four fifth generation fighter jets. There were also jets on the ground by the carpet. Dictators being dictators. he/him/his 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
