It seems like an incredible investment to me. Thanks Joe!

Of course, if you are actually ON Putin's side it is a horrible deal....

Notice that when Z didn't tell Trump about his plans, Russia gets blown to smithereens. I'm sure Trump's been telling Putin Z's plans ahead of time so the Russian troops would be ready.

sounds like an admission that they have been defeated by Ukraine.

Trump would have (1) told Zelenskyy not to do it, and (2) told his BFF what was planned.

The response seems canned, as though it is not coming from Trump. Here is what is attributed.

"President Donald Trump wants the war between Ukraine and Russia to end at the negotiating table, stated White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, Sky News reports.

Responding to a question about Donald Trump's reaction to the attack by Ukrainian drones on Russia on Sunday, she said: "The reaction is this war needs to come to an end. This war has been brutal from both sides, and too many people have died."

The statement "this war has been brutal from both sides, and too many people have died" doesn't reflect reality. I have not heard that any Russians were killed in this specific drone attack. Perhaps she confuses strategic nuclear bombers with day care centers, hospital maternity wards, and shopping centers. That is the pairing that reflects reality.
