Given that Trump’s tariff and trade policies have been subject to so much delay, dithering and shilly-shallying almost no one would be concerned with such threats from this White House. Especially so with such a long lead time before the actual effects kick in.

Trump has given Putin the green light to bomb the shit out of Ukraine 🇺🇦 for the next 50 days . We live in such a scary and stupid timeline.

When Russia invaded Ukraine, who did they attack first? Holocaust survivors, retired military veterans, old women and men, professors, doctors, municipal government officials, and journalists. That's who he targeted and murdered first. Who is Trump attacking? Immigrants, doctors, professors..

Trump is terrified by Putin. Why give him 50 days to comply? So Vlad can do whatever he wants for 49 days, then spend 10 minutes on the phone flattering Trump, thus avoiding any tariffs?

Call me paranoid but you wonder why stuff with Trump and Russia always generates lots of headlines he is finally finally this time for real no seriously getting tough on Russia and then when you look under the hood a few days later it’s vaporware and that gets a fraction of the original coverage.

The Trump-Putin reality show should be cancelled once & for all. Trump NEVER belonged in US Gov!!! KGB Putin’s plan has always included rebuilding Russian Empire; destroying democracy; energy dominance; doing everything he could to get his “useful idiot” elected & re-elected.

Of course they are relieved. Unlike the fools in the American news media who actually believe the charade that Trump & Putin are putting on for the world, (Trump now supports Ukraine! He’s realized Putin was playing him & he’s mad!) the Russians know that Trump is still in Putin’s pocket.
