Trump’s self-imposed deadline for a Putin-Zelenskyy meeting has come and gone without progress. “It doesn’t feel like this meeting is going to happen,” Jack Blanchard says on #playbookpod, and that “really doesn’t look good for the president.” Listen: ow.ly/YPpl50WPp6h

How is it a "self-imposed deadline" if it's a meeting that doesn't include you? The phrase "self-imposed deadline" has always referred to deadlines for ones own actions.

Today he said “he’s very disappointed in Vladimir”. WTAF? Trump doesn’t care what the citizens of this country think b/c he believes deeply only his thoughts are smart ones. And he’s the president of the United States

Trump is Russian. There will be no meetings. He’s withholding the funding Congress approved to spite Ukraine. Half went out under Biden. ZERO since 47.

Trump is not going to do anything to stop the criminal Putin. And Putin is not going to stop murdering innocent people in Ukraine until someone stops him. I guess it's going to have to be the Europeans.

During his first term, he invited the Taliban to Camp David and negotiated with a "TERRORIST organization," label given by the US government since before 2001. He, most likely, provided with intelligence and told the Taliban when the US will be pulling out, thus the mess we saw on the exit.

He is a working RUSSIAN asset. He negotiated the prices of oil going up with Russia & Saudi to jack up prices in the Denver airport for 3 days. Told the US he would be able to bring prices down, but he didn't. He creates a crisis, it gets out of hand and can't fix it. TRUMP CAN NOT BE TRUSTED.

All it is is lip service. Trump has no intention of working to stop the war in Ukraine. Putin has something on Trump and continues to be the puppet master, pulling on Trumps strings. I still believe Trump wants Ukraine to fail in order to help his daddy Putin.

It is kind of sad that so many people were optimistic about Trump's "summit" with Putin and a proposed Putin-zelenskyy meeting. It was all about nothing. Trump went into the "summit" for a little chit-chat with Putin and Putin slathered on ridiculous flattery. Now, Trump is getting the middle finger

It was never going to happen and designed to fail from the start. It bought Putin time to get strategic but temporary advantage. Putin is going broke from the war. Zelenskyy is stronger with European allies with a huge stake in protecting Ukraine. And facts are, that Trump is failing here at home.
