Putin has been hard to bargain with, but many familiar with peace negotiations say Trump fixer Steve Witkoff has made talks even more difficult.

Putin is being Putin he is putting on a show for the world and especially Trump he has no desire for peace or he wouldn't have invaded in the first place he wants Ukraine period and nobody will change his mind except the Russian people who may get tired of the deaths not likely though

Unfair to #Witkoff, who has actually done a remarkable job. Has anyone else done a better job with #Putin? I don't think so. • GWB: peered into Putin's soul 🤭 • Obama/Clinton: Russia reset 🙄 • Biden: no talking 👎 At least we're now talking, which is always better than not. 👏

There was NEVER any effort to be made towards peace. Putin is the aggressor, likely because he’s insecure AF and short. Putin wants Ukraine. He actually wants the world. He also has Parkinson’s. Trump works for Putin. Trump has Alzheimer’s. Let RFK Jr treat them both. 😏

The sad fact is, Trump will never hire anyone smarter than he is, nor someone who would outshine him. That has doomed this country in two administrations—one only in months. DEMS hire specialists that know how to do things that they do not. They’re not afraid. Fact is, that’s what GOOD managers do.
