..not other president would have withheld military assistance while Russia advantaged that pause to brutally attack civilians.

No other president would hang Ukraine out on a limb, after Russia invaded, like Trump has.

No other president would need Europe to come to the U.S., flanking the victim of Russian attacks to protect him from their dishonest bullying of our ally.

No other president would blame Ukraine for Russia's brutal, deadly bombings of civilians.

No other president would insist Ukraine should have given up their land to Russia before they were attacked, channeling Neville Chamberlain's appeasement of Hitler which just emboldened the German dictator to take more territory.

Speaking after talks between US and Russia on ending the war, the US President told Ukraine: “You should have never started it, you could have made a deal … I could have made a deal that would have given them almost all of the land.”

After his meeting with Mr. Putin, Mr. Trump has dropped his demand for an immediate cease-fire and believes a rapid peace treaty can be negotiated, so long as Mr. Zelensky agrees to cede the rest of the Donbas region to Russia, even those areas not occupied by Russian troops.
