You sir, are one of the great frauds in the group that claims to back Ukraine--but actually serves Trump (and Putin) and helps damage Ukraine. For ages you have been telling lies that Trump would be great for Ukraine, that Trump loves Zelensky, that Trump would be tough on Putin.
Here you are before the election, assuring people that Trump loved Zelensky--indeed that Zelensky was a Ukrainian Trump! Trump of course loved Zelensky so much he humiliated him as soon as he became president. aei.org/op-eds/why-doe…
In February you pretended Trump's meaningless minerals deal was going to make Trump really help Ukraine--and was a big blow to Putin. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…Image
In early March, after Trump had humiliated Zelensky, you toadied up to Trump big time and said Zelensky should now resign. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…Image
In March, Trump according to you was really angry at Putin and was going to drop the hammer on Russia! How did rhar work out? washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…Image
And you continually kiss Trump's ass--even when he mocks you. How's that $50 billion arms sale to ukraine going? Image
In July, you were assuring people that Trump was going to turn on Putin and back Ukraine--and six weeks later Trump rolled out the red carpet for Putin in Anchorage washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…Image
And then a few hours before Trump and Putin had there love-making call and agreed the Budapest summit--and then Trump went on and humiliated Zelensky for a second time--you assured the world that Trump would never be bluffed by Putin. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…Image
Of course you are not just dishonest about Trump and Ukraine--remember when you claimed that Trump had disavowed Project 2025 (which he is busily implementing now). washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/…Image
Look--maybe stop pretending you support Ukraine. You support Trump. You have backed him continually as he has screwed Ukraine and made love to Putin. I cant wait for your column about the Budapest summit being really good for Ukraine. I'm sure its coming.

I know there is a new surge of optimism that Trump will really help Ukraine and hammer Russia. And the White House is making lots of "noise". However, keep in mind the following:
The first threat to really hammer Putin with sanctions was 9 months ago. cnbc.com/2025/01/22/tru…
The first mention of Trump sending Tomahawks to Ukraine was more than 3 months ago. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…
The first mention that Trump might agree a $90 billion arms package with ukraine was two months ago. theguardian.com/world/2025/aug…

Trump is admitting two things here. The first is that he has been serving Russian interests by protecting Putin on numerous occasions. The second is that Trump is feeling pressure to be harder on Russia, which he really doesn’t want to do.
Response: keep up the pressure! Image
We now live in an era in which the President of the USA is publicly admitting to acting exactly as an agent of influence of Russia would be expected to act.
Republicans, do you feel proud to be supporting a President who openly admits to strongly and regularly defending the actions of a dictatorial war criminal who has invaded a democracy. Is this what you want the party to be?

Hi all, just sent out my free weekend update. This was the week where it was said many things changed, but actually relatively little did. Trump basically gave up pretending he was trying to negotiate in good faith and said if Putin doesn’t want a deal, that’s fine by him. Image
And at the same time, Trump is encouraging Putin not to have a deal as he continues to restrict new aid to Ukraine. Can we stop pretending that Trump cares about Ukrainian dead? He’s a narcissistic sociopath. This is just a continuation of his older policy in a new way.
I wrote about this in the update. The USA through Trump is now actively helping Russia kill Ukrainians by starving Ukraine of anti air facilities. The US is working with Russia. washingtonpost.com/world/2025/05/…

OK, sent out this free piece on the details of the Trump "final" plan for Ukraine that has been seen by Axios. The 5 points have basically been dictated by Putin. They set up a process which would allow Russia to expand into all of its neighbors. Image
No one should be shocked by this. Its what Trump has been saying for years. The shocking thing is that people fooled themselves that we would not reach this point. The future of freedom and democracy in Europe is entirely in Europe's hands. I hope Europe does not blow it.
Btw, Putin saying right after this that he is now willing to freeze the war along the present front line and negotiate is almost certainly coordinated action with Trump to try and force this terrible deal down Ukraine’s and Europe’s throats

Trump is out of his depth in this trade war. He clearly didnt expect this Chinese reaction--and is accusing them of panicking. Ahhh--Projection.... Image
The tragedy for the USA (self-inflicted) is that Trump seems to be going out of his way to strengthen China's international position. President Xi must be stunned as his good luck to be faced by such a fool--as I wrote in this piece today.
More Trump panic (a real-time meltdown is happening). Having put in place all the conditions for a major recession--he's now begging the Fed to cut interest rates and throw him a lifeline. Maybe he should ask the Chinese to stop panicking and help. Image

Pretty sure what we have seen today is Trump and Putin acting as allies to betray Ukraine and isolate Europe. What seems to have happened is this.
1) The US got Ukraine to agree a Black Sea ceasefire on the idea that if Rus broke it, the US would put more sanctions on Rus.
2) Trump then turn around and agreed sanctions relief with Russia as part of the Black Sea Ceasefire--which Ukraine would not have known (I imagine)

3) Ukraine is now in a box. If it rejects the US deal with Russia, the US can say Ukraine is the bad guy and end all sanctions.
4) If Ukraine keeps to the deal--Russia gets important relief and a significant advantage it did not have.

5) Only European states can help Ukraine now--but they need to be active and fast.
