https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/20/europe/zelensky-trump-end-russia-ukraine-war-intl-hnk/index.htmlZelensky is worried that Trump would arrange a wholesale surrender to Putin. That's a very reasonable concern. Trump has a history of rhetorically fellating Putin. Trump appears totally in the tank for Putin. The worst possibility is that Trump will freeze all help for Ukraine and tell Zelensky he better surrender. Personally, I see this as quite likely.

in Syria lock, stock, and barrel to Putin. People seem to forget that.

election the lying POS trump will say he has negotiated a deal. I think there are a lot of Americans who would consider that negotiated end to the war a positive.
If he doesnt pull that stunt, I agree hell try for same during his term if he slips in. Believe Biden will win, but Im going to be anxious until major news outlets call it.
