Is the man delusional? Can someone please provide a logical explanation for this, other than the man has lost his mind?

He is 78 ….

 

[Tbitty]

Age limits and term limits ... should be more obvious than ever.

Not if the Trump team has determined to give Russia a negotiated victory they can't win on the battlefield.

If it weren't for billions of American dollars and arms this would have been over three years ago.

Time for Europe to stand up for themselves and quit leaching off America and running to Big Brother USA to protect them.

The Americans that will have to pay the interest for the this Ukraine debt haven't been born yet.

So now Zelensky should never have started the war?!?!?!? Putin and Lavrov must be beside themselves in hilarious disbelief.

Trump must be senile...

 

[Granygudness]

Me too, why Ukraine is not invited to the party is perplexing, especially with Russia being the bully invader. I voted for trump and proud of it ,however his international politics, foreign policy is way above my highwater mark. Having said that, what could the thug , murdering ,commie , spy, have on Trump that the dems. haven't already tried. It would be like me saying I saw you out with another woman last saturday. By the way hows the weather down there still raining?

These negotiations taking time and i believe it is really shakie at this point. The U.S should be concerned about Zelensky's ego, instead they should be concerned about resolving the war and i believe that's what is going on now. The time will come when the funny actor president will step in but for now its best for the negotiation to go this way as its on thin ice. Just me thought though.

I don`t think he is senile. I think its a personality issue....
In regards to Ukraine things are uncertain right now. However its gonna be more interesting(concerning) to see what America look like after 4 years from now.

I think he is.
Nothing he says makes any sense to me about Ukraine anymore.

That whole set of statements could have been taken verbatim from a Russian propaganda segment on one of their state run television programs at any point in the last three years. It was an outrageous lie when the Russians said it, and it is a lie when he says it. A shameful lie.

I think it’s going to look a lot better.
A much smaller government with the states picking up the tab for things that are their responsibility instead of the federal government.
As for Europe, The Sandbox, and every other non American country let them defend themselves.

I wonder if the alleged “pee tape” is real.
Or we have another senile, bitter old man in the White House.

Gentlemen you have to take a step back and realize who your dealing with here; you have a Manhattan real estate developer who then went into entertainment and then Politics, negotiating between a former KGB officer turned ruler of Russia that has been on a political “red pride parade” for years and it’s his legacy at stake.

I feel like Trumps rhetoric as deplorable as it may be to us is little more than trying to appeal to Putin ego of legacy; while at the same time trying to deal with negotiating for territory with the head of state of what was one of the most corrupt countries on earth before the invasion……

Yes, all three heads of state are narcissists, so make ready for more irritating comments from all sides; these negotiations are just getting warmed up.

I admit I possess far less confidence about Trump's foreign policy acumen than many of you. It is exactly this sort of thing that tends to solidify my view as I "take a step back" and assess him as the steward of our national interests on the international stage. I can not conclude anything other than he was spewing either absolute nonsense or a deliberate falsification of the facts. Neither inspires a lot of confidence.

I frankly think this sort of unscripted tirade more than anything reflects his continuing personal animosity toward Zelensky - an animosity which seems clearly more important to him than the national interests of this country.

Borris Johnson trying to put a happy face on Trump's remarks by using it as a call to European action with respect to frozen Russian assets.

[rigbymauser]

Trumps new low is to call Ukrians president for a dictator.

Just 16 hours earlier Trump blamed Zelensky for the war.

Trumps claimed only 4% of Ukrains people support Zelensky which isn’t true.

Trump doesn’t understand why Ukraine don’t have an election in the middle of the war.

Its gonna end very very bad for somebody or all of us.

 

[Hunt anything]

I see a lot about elections during war. Didn’t we have elections in 1944 WW2, 1952 Korea, 64,68 and 72 Vietnam, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 Iraq and Afghanistan? Is it that these were not on our homeland or what?

That’s one difference.

The Brits for instance had an election in 1910 and not again until 1918 and in 1945 and not again until 1945.

 

[LivingTheDream]

Here is my question with regards to Ukraine. Z knew the Russians were building up on his boarder, the US knew the Russians were building up on his boarder, but yet there were very little defenses set up, very little defensive materials were given? Why?

Also US Policy regarding when we would given Ukraine weapons and how they could use them also really handcuffed them. Was there really a huge fear of escalation? Why didn't we give them the ability to really push back?

I dont agree with what Trump said, I am guessing this his a personal issue with Z, but also don't think the US policy has ever cared about Ukrainians or Ukraine. But more about seeing how Russia would perform in battle as well as having them destroy their equipment, and weaken their overall army. Getting Intel on North Koreans fighting abilities is an added bonus.

I do think that Ukraine has become an issue of extreme taking points, which I dont think really point to the actual solution. I dont necessarily agree with Trumps approach but I am guessing we won't have a forever war.

It is truly beyond belief. He’s just making stuff up. My biggest concern about him was
In foreign policy. However, I never imagined it could be this bad.
