In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump claimed that Moscow and Kyiv have both lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers in a war that “should never have started.”

Couldn't be more in putins pocket if he tried.

Nah, putin started the war while biden is the bully at the head of usa. If it's like what you said it would have been really a couple weeks war in 2019, when trump was still botus.

Why would putin invade Ukraine when trump would have given it to him? Also will give it to him now that trumps been reelected. How is biden a "bully" when russia is the aggressor?

That's what I'm saying. If Trump is in the pocket of putin, why putin would attack Ukraine? Trump would have handed it to him, no?

United staters are bullies by definition.


It's important for me to clarify this, for all the people of Ukraine going through this hell, through the horrible cruelty of this mindless war; for Sergey, that is still among the living, but lost.

I'm not siding with putin, I'm not siding with anyone that thought that even a single life was expendable to satisfy some mischievous calculation.

I still have in the eyes the scene of that pregnant woman, forced to run for their life down the stairs out of her house, hurt, with blood on her face. This madness must end as soon as possible at the expense of putin and of anyone else that fed the war, that worsened the pain. Ukrainian people must be free again to live their lives, in health, in peace.

The consequences of this war will be harsh and painful, for many. All these years of horror cannot be simply wiped away, as chalk on a blackboard. I hope that Ukraine will be able to heal quickly and to quickly regain hope for its people and their future.

Because Biden won the election? The f are you on about?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Because biden was elected? russia is also a bully and is the bully in this istance. There is a lot of bad that the US does, but this is about russian aggression.

Proving once again that Trump was the Harm Reduction candidate all along

Enabling genocide is the opposite of harm reduction

I'm glad we're agreed on Harris's policies in Palestine
