    That’s just an insult to Jimmy Carter.

    Completely his fault. He signed a peace deal that gave them everything, then forced his way out of it. He should have held out for better conditions or stuck with the deal he’d signed. What a disgrace.

        How was he supposed to distract from all the other awful shit about him in the news cycle if he didn’t!?

            That would stick it to the libs. Otherwise he will very likely spend a lot of time on trial in courtrooms eventually.

            I mean the global celebration would certainly be disruptive but I’m more than happy to make that sacrifice

  • @return2ozma The bigger picture:

    The Trump gang is holding world stock markets hostage, announcing military aggression one day, and “negotiations” & “peace” closing in the other, none of which is true declared by the deranged puppet of dominant U.S. economic & ideological interest factions.

    I don’t want to see this drag on for two more years, but I wouldn’t e surprised if his successor could reach an agreement quickly once assuming office. Trump will bad mouth such a deal. “We had them on the ropes, folks, then ___ came in and gave it all away. What are you gonna do?”

      That would completely match his pattern. Of course it’s all lies, he is the self-proclaimed President of Peace and said he would end the Ukraine war before he even got into office.

    I hoped the article would explain the context, but it didn’t (or I didn’t find it). Why is Trump about to become Jimmy Carter? What did Jimmy Carter do that is analogous to the situation that Trump may find himself in?
