There is genuinely a world where “Why do you keep going to war? Fear of a lack of resources? Let’s make a deal to prioritize some paid contracts to you so that we can create an economic dependence and have a bigger lever the next time you are a dumb shit” is the outcome and… that would be a genuinely beautiful outcome and a long term solution to putin. Yes, it is rewarding “bad behavior”. But anything short of a full military occupation AND continued occupation (rather than leaving a puppet regime to get taken out by insurrection five minutes after we leave) is just kicking the can down the road.
But this is trump and he has never found a business he couldn’t bankrupt. So just give strong daddy putin the state that sort of limits his actions and all the resources in exchange for… turning Ukraine into Gaza.
so putin fighting against ukraine for territory means america is surrendering. wut?
The art of the deal!
Shut up! This is what WINNING looks like! /s
Lol, he’s offering Russia part of Ukraine AND America now, while buying right into Russia’s propaganda that Alaska should belong to Russia too?

What a weak little bitch.
Everything makes sense if you begin all conversations assuming he’s a russian asset.
Krasnov hopes to please Putin at his performance review.
