US President Donald Trump says Russia has made a "pretty big concession" to end the war in Ukraine by stopping short of taking the "whole country."

Things a rapist is saying

It was very kindhearted of Putin to not meet his military objectives in the planned two weeks, instead extending the war for three years, in order to make it a more fair contest for Ukraine.

There, am I doing stooge-speak right?

Its been so painfully obvious this man's been Putin's bitch since 2016, there's a reason people were suspecting Russia interfered with that election, his supporters denied it, and now that he's openly supporting all of his asslickers showing support as well and following their herd like the good obedient sheep they are.

He's been Russia's bitch since at least 1987.

Its not a concession. They tried. they came very close to accomplishing their goal. But because of the outcomes of the battles of Irpin, Bucha, Hostomel Airport, and one of the most critical battles of the entire war, Moschun, Russia was defeated and lost their opportunity to quickly topple the government.

In short. They didnt concede. They got their asses handed to them. And played it off as an act of mercy when they ran away with their tails between their legs.

Concession? They tried to do exactly that and are still trying.

Trump really is a Russian

[-] itisileclerk@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Then Islamic terrorists made big conncession by not hijacking every airplane and crush it into building.

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Funny way of saying they tried and failed.

[-] _fool_@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Exactly what Putin's bitch would say. Not surprising.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 months ago

Does he know what concession means?

[-] Noodle07@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

He knows the con part

Look at the stupid America has unleashed on the world.

Put your dicks away, you’re stinking up the place.

When he dies it’s going to be the party of the century

[-] tal@lemmy.today 0 points 3 months ago

After he leaves office, I don't really want to think about him again.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

I’m hoping the good lord takes him home soon

[-] Renohren@lemmy.today 0 points 3 months ago

And leave us with Vance? It's the same incompetence.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Vance doesn’t have the cult following and won’t be able to garner the loyalty. Cults always fail apart when they lose their leader

[-] BenjiRenji@feddit.org 0 points 3 months ago

True. Maga hates the man. As soon as he's no longer "under Trump's guidance" he won't be able to afford much.

[-] futatorius@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

They'll fall in line behind him but it won't be the same. With the eyeliner and the fictitious origin story, I'd fully expect President Vance to go full Gaddafi and get dragged up with increasingly flamboyant uniforms that'd make Elton John look like an accountant.

The world is held hostage by three sociopaths, Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu. Two of them are war criminals, and the third is waiting to happen at any moment.

[-] jjpamsterdam@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

I don't want to excuse Netanyahu here. He certainly belongs behind bars in my opinion. However, he only holds a part of the world hostage rather than all of it. I see him on par with folks like Kim Jon Un or Mohamed bin Salman rather than Trump or Putin.

Israel is like a city in US. They have 10 million population. They are local, not global players.

I fully expected you to say Xi

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I agree, the third big single powerful person is certainly Xi. I suppose one can say the "sociopath" is more evident with Netanyahu than Xi, because for now China is able to sit back and let Russia and USA self sabotage to a weaker position while mucking with the rest of the world, while China gets to play comparative good guy in foreign policy. This is of course grading on a curve, they aren't saints either.

Their reach through American proxies is larger than their population.
