  1. Trump is incompetent. Five bankruptcies. Scammer, as vulnerable to flattery as a tipsy high school girl. Putin plays him like a piccolo. Might well have photos of his instrument from Moscow Hilton romp.

  2. I didnt see that if US give those long range weapons can confirm zalensky to win. Before this zalensky gets a lot of weapons from US and Nato but still nothing much he can do.

  3. He has zero understanding of everything except crime and clogging the courts. He has surrounded himself with yesmen to the point of delusional psychosis.

  4. this channel have a very interesting documental and same time have a partial democrats tendency in them editorial line . remind during trump presidential time have a interesting advance in international relationships

  5. Russia is near military and economic collapse, which is why Russia's "pawns" at the UN are now urging a cease fire "in place". Putin is depending on his "asset" Trump (does Putin have "kompromat" and Trump admires his murdering terrorist pal, and wants to have Putin's dictatorial powers in the US) to "survive" and just keep his increasingly shaky rule. Putin is losing and it is becoming clear that many Russians clearly question this senseless war, from the kleptocratic oligarchs losing billions to sanctions to the troops being sent to their own deaths as cannon fodder. So, I tend agree that even his "asset" Trump will not save him at this point. Trump shows his devotion to Putin, as well. Mayve alos hoping that some kind of surprise by Putin may help put Trump himself back into power. Putin and Trump are a rather sick and cynical relationship between two co-dependent narcissists both craving to have and keep themselves in power.

  6. I guess I’ll take a president with “no understanding of war” if that means there are no wars. These liberal hacks are the same warmongers they decried in the early 2000’s

  7. hmmm…interesting. so a nuclear power nation will go down as a loss? would you? so if Putin is so radical as we see some parts of Europeans keep preaching with our Americans than shouldn't you worry even more since Putin is a irresponsible killer? I'm just trying to understand the logic.

  8. Donald Trump has zero understanding of war. Maybe Trump has more understanding and authority of achieving peace. This would have never happened on Trumps watch. He would have had the authority to avoid the war. Biden lacked that.
