at the pope's funeral. He has to know that he can't trust Trump as far as he can throw him, but Zelenskyy is still trying to be a diplomat and talk sense to the moron.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
@ZelenskyyUa
Good meeting. We discussed a lot one on one. Hoping for results on everything we covered. Protecting lives of our people. Full and unconditional ceasefire. Reliable and lasting peace that will prevent another war from breaking out. Very symbolic meeting that has potential to become historic, if we achieve joint results. Thank you
@POTUS

(10,943 posts)... Facebook post. Sounds like he outlined his needs for Ukraine very well. I wonder if Crooked Donald understands they are not okay with Putin?

(34,384 posts)They defy logic. They are wired very differently than anyone with a soul.
And they definitely can't be trusted.
The best thing that President Zelenskyy can do and probably all, is to feed this psychopath's ego and use trickery.

(27,315 posts)Even if Zelenskyy was able to play back Donny's words later, his followers NEVER hold anything against him. He lies and contradicts himself all the time. His MAGA disciples are all-forgiving.
He changes his mind like the wind anyway.

(9,205 posts)You have to wade through a wordy mire of griping to get to it, but it's there in the last few sentences.

1. This conflicts with Witkoff's reports that his cosy chats with Putin are going swimmingly.
2. What the fuck has Trump been watching while Putin's been bombarding countless civilian areas, cities and towns in Ukraine since the beginning of the war - Gorilla Channel?
3. What would the "right" number of people dying be?
4. If he's so worried about Ukraine's civilian areas, cities and towns, how about doing a deal with Zelensky to let Ukraine buy those Patriot systems?
5. Supplying Ukraine with the backlog of aid lined up by Biden would send a clearer message to Putin.
Justice matters.
(10,091 posts)how does he think President Obama (a real POTUS) could have stopped him from invading Crimea??
Once again, absolute nonsense from the unpunished felon.
