Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy dismissed U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s proposal for a rapid peace deal with Russia, arguing it would lead to a “loss” for Ukraine.
Trump, who has repeatedly claimed he could resolve the war in 24 hours, aims for a quick end, but Zelenskyy insists that a rushed settlement would compromise Ukraine’s independence.
Speaking in Budapest, Zelenskyy also rejected Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s call for a cease-fire, citing failed attempts in 2014.
Additionally, he warned of North Korean troop involvement in Ukraine if Western allies don’t increase political pressure on Pyongyang.
I often see the argument “Which part of your country would you be willing to cede in the name of peace?”
Normally this would be a valid argument, but in trumps case, I’m sure he’d gladly cede California or some other blue state if it meant he gained something from it. He has no scruples or integrity, and thinks other heads of state are the same.
Florida
I can’t wait for Texas to leave. They say the want to, fuckin’ do it pussies.
Edit: yes, I know there are many innocent people there, but it’s not like the federal government is protecting them now anyway.
Blue state anyways … \s
I would gladly be willing to cede Alabama, Mississippi and Texas for peace.
With a slightly growling Chihuahua I saw across the street.
Or like, a baby kitten that wanted my ball of string.
You know what? This conversation is concerning me, here, take my Texas, please!
I’m pretty sure most of the blue states, California especially, would be happy to leave the union at this point. What’s in it for us?
Imagine all the blue states (2 of which are top 3 in GDP) left the states?! I’ll gladly accept Cali and NY into Canada!
As a Canadian I accept California as our next province.
I’m sure a lot of California (except from the meth counties) would like that too these days.
Wait take Illinois too we’re good with it I promise

Saxony. Although it’s basically controlled by Russia already.
Add Thüringen too.
Dumb question, how would the electoral college be reallocated if a large state like California left?
It needs to be realocated even now and it isn’t. No reason to think a secession would change things.
Florida
honestly any that wants to leave (by a democratic referendum) and doesn’t cause any exclaves or enclaves to exist
