“We’re investing hundreds of billions of dollars. They have great rare earths, and I want security of the rare earths,” he said in Washington, adding that Ukraine is “willing to do it.”
President Trump said. “Never in a million years. But even now, if I were president, I’d be able to negotiate an end to this horrible and rapidly escalating war in 24 hours.” - February 01, 2023.
He’s always speaking about how great he is at deals. This rare earth gives him justification for supporting Ukraine, even though he said he’d end the war.
Whether this deal will be any good or will actually be fulfilled is a very different matter.
So, now we know for sure what Russia wants from Ukraine. We also know what trump is up to in Greenland and Ukraine.
If Trump is anything up to in Ukraine, he needs to fucking send equipment and ammo to make Joe Biden to look like limo dick imbecile that he is.
Stack Ukraine up to win the fuxking war.
limo dick
Biden packing enough for an entire hen party to ride apparently
Leaving it up, it is still true although better fitting for Clinton
Trump’s response to this will prove once and for all whether or not Putin has serious kompromat on him.
If in the next day or two, Trump quietly backs off his deal with Zelensky for the rights to the Rare Earths…Putin definitely has something on him.
If Trump doubles down with his usual ego and bravado;
a) I would actually be surprised that his presidency could accomplish one…good…thing by going all in with Ukraine to win the war. and…
b) He’ll be heading out a window soon because his greed overtook his loyalty to daddy Poots, losing in the coveted useful idiot status.
Really, what could Putin possibly have on Trump that’s worse than what is already well publicized?
His mother was a hamster and his father smelt of elder berries.
Can anyone think of one thing that would sink trump now? I cant.
Great insight, I said something similar about how Trump responds to Musk as to whether or not Musk is operating under Putin’s orders or not - if Trump’s ego doesn’t get the best of him with everyone referring to “President Musk,” then you know god damn well that’s not right.
But there’s also another dynamic: I think there is a not-insignificant chance that both of these guys will grow so powerful that Putin may start getting nervous about being the one thrown out a window, and rightly so if he’s constantly threatening them.
I’ve been asking all along why the hell Putin is so confident all this shit isn’t going to blow up in his fucking face and the only answer I got (and it was from Russians) was “it’s a Russian thing” lol.
Inb4 President Musk of Russia
I’ll bet you a dozen eggs that T has no clue what “rare earth” [sic] is and why it is important. He just heard “rare”, and someone told him it was valuable and that someone else had some.
Gotta have it all!
Lose against Russia, your people are fucked for decades to come. Win against Russia with US help, kiss your rare earths goodbye and one major source of income is gone, but at least your people live.
Trump is quite egoistic.
