Summary

During a White House meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, Donald Trump declined to call Russian President Vladimir Putin a “dictator” after previously labeling Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy one.

Trump claimed the war could end “within weeks” and pushed for a deal giving the U.S. access to Ukraine’s mineral profits.

While criticizing Zelenskyy, Trump said he’s had “good talks” with Putin and has made no demands of Russia.

He ruled out NATO membership for Ukraine and a return to its 2014 borders, signaling a major U.S. policy shift.

    Would you call out your boss in public?

      Yes? I’m paid to be there too and supposedly they want my opinion. Bosses are allowed to be wrong, and you’re allowed to correct them. Not doing so is shooting yourself and everyone else who works with you in the foot.

        But I forgot this is about Trump and Putin. Putin’s not Trump’s boss though. He’s his owner. Different dynamic.

      President Kraznov

      Bet that’s his everyday name in the Kremlin. We should adopt it as well.

    Look, folks, let me tell you something. You know, I’ve been saying this for a long time—long before anyone else. Russia, great people, great leaders, they’ve been fantastic. And Ukraine, you know, they were just not listening to the right advice, right? They should’ve just… given up like I said! But now we’re in a little… situation here, and let me be clear, folks, I know situations.

    Now, I see this whole thing with Poland, and it’s a bit of a mess. Poland—great country, by the way, I love Poland—so much history, such incredible pierogi, folks. But now they’re, uh, allegedly showing signs of aggression? Big mistake, Poland. You never mess with Russia when you’ve got people like me out there… you know, knowing how to do deals.

    So listen, here’s what I think: Russia’s been very strong, okay? Tremendous, really. They’ve won, they’ve taken everything they wanted, and now they’re saying Poland’s a little… too aggressive. They don’t need this right now. And I agree with Russia! The Polish need to calm down, take a step back.

    You know, they’ve been trying to act tough like they’re some kind of… superpower—but, let’s be honest, it’s not happening. No one talks about Poland like we do. Sad!

    So, if I were in charge, we’d be doing so much better. I’d tell Poland to relax, take a breath, maybe work on some very strong business deals with Russia. It’s all about the deals, folks, it’s all about the deals. And if they don’t? Well, then, uh… I’m sure Russia would handle it, believe me.

    And let me say this: Putin—great guy, fantastic, we’ve had a lot of talks, you wouldn’t believe it, so much great stuff—we don’t need to mess with him. Poland? They’re not tough enough to deal with this. Just, everybody calm down, okay? Don’t make a huge mistake, Poland. Trust me, I know mistakes when I see ‘em.

    Big applause.

      I can’t tell if this is satire or real anymore.

        Easy, the real Donny wouldn’t know what Pierogi are, unless McDonalds has them on their menu now…

        I honestly can’t believe we are in a situation where the US conservatives are cozying up to Russia and Nazi Ideology of all things. And they expect help for Ukraine to be nothing more than a business deal type loan with immediate financial return instead of political goodwill from what it sounds like

    It’d be nice if they’d provide a clip of these exchanges or timestamps. Video is just better to share with the people that need to see this.

    I’m steelmanning this fuck more than he deserves, but didn’t “he say” those things in Truth Social? I don’t think it’s Trump who writes those things. I’m not even sure it’s a person.
