Jeez. Did Trump really just say President Zelensky started the war with Russia?
Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous dictator called Vladimir Putin

Not only is beneficial alignment the right thing to do, for growth. It is also the most popular option with voters.

“How will an ambulance get through?”
A question only asked of those trying to save our planet, not millionaire landowners trying to hoard wealth.
