America's FAVORITE RAPIN' GRAMPY admits he can't end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. SAD! RIGGED! UNFAIR!

Trump is handing off responsibility for one of his signature campaign promises.

The U.S. president will leave Russian and Ukrainian officials to organize a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy to discuss an end to hostilities without taking a direct role himself, reported The Guardian, citing officials familiar with the situation.

"Trump’s reluctance to push Putin and Zelenskyy to a meeting comes as he has acknowledged in recent days that ending the war in Ukraine has been more difficult than he had anticipated," the publication reported, "after saying on the campaign trail last year he could achieve it in 24 hours."

The president has reportedly told advisers in recent days that he plans to host a trilateral meeting involving the two leaders, but only after they've met first, but plans for that meeting are not set and Trump does not intend to get involved in planning those talks.

Don’t do the hard work of leading the negotiations but if they come to agreement he’ll show up at tri lateral anc claim he brokered the peace-what a lazy, ignorant bum.

“I HEREBY DECLARE THE WAR IN UKRAINE IS OVER!”???

Surely that would work.
