Now would be a good time to find out details of Trump's indebtedness to Putin. Was it money or snaps, for example, that led to the slavish devotion to Putin's cause?Quote:

Countries that once considered the US to be a steadfast ally must now surely realise that a Trump led USA can no longer be depended upon and the UK and EU need to pull together like never before.
The fallout from this disastrous meeting will be playing out for some time to come and in the meantime Putin is laughing his bits off.
Trump’s fascist administration can go to hell.
It's the "you should be more grateful".Quote:

You’ve been banging on for months about the imminent collapse of the Russian economy. Yet here we are and nothing has really changed. The Russians will keep going as long as they can still man the machine. A long way to go before that well dries up.Quote:

I never said their economy wasn’t in a dire state - there’s no doubt about that. But its been deteriorating for a while - and still they fight. I don’t see it being a factor in the war ending any time soon due to it though.Quote:

Just watched a fuller version of the meeting …….. incredulously, it started off with one of the assembled Mafia thugs berating Zelensky for not wearing a suit, saying he was being disrespectful. I’ve never felt so much anger and hatred for Trump’s circus and am saddened that a convicted criminal, proud and unashamed misogynist and sexual predator can turn world peace on it’s head. Jeremy Bowen on the BBC news even suggested that the whole thing, from start to finish, might have been stage managed to undermine Zelensky and send a message of support to Putin.
There’s a phrase along the lines of “slowly, slowly… then all at once”.Quote:

The only hope for the Russian economy is Trump.
And re war finance… as the American door closes, keep a wee eye out for an incredibly significant Norwegian one opening.
Europe need to keep stepping up, which of late they have been doing.
Thats interesting re your Norwegian comment. Lets see what comes 👍Quote:

It would likely not be the case when they got behind closed doors, but first impressions are vital to Trump and his thugs and he wants pay back big time.

Parroting bull**** about Ukraine being the most corrupt country in the world, that Zelenskyy is an authoritarian, and that the US won’t fund “another yacht for him”.
These times call for serious debate, not this ****ing juvenile reality TV bull****.
I watched his interview on C4 News. Tremendous. Certainly didn’t hold back.Quote:
