The most incompetent American president ever

The funny thing about Trump is that no matter how much he threatens to walk away from negotiations to end the war in Ukraine, he never does because he wants to be the one who ends it.
You can say no and he’ll threaten you, but he won’t actually do anything

The US is no longer a reliable ally to Europe.
Trump’s traitorous policy will also, sadly, cost the US European support on other issues, including China

Trump backstabbing Ukraine and betraying the US to push Russian interests will hurt global US influence, its defence industry, its reputation, its economy, its safety, and Americans as a result

People need to realize that Russia and Trump are pushing this now not just because of the front and the corruption scandal in Ukraine, but because Ukraine’s deep strikes are hurting Russia’s economy.
Russia can’t afford for it to get worse and sees an opportunity

Trump’s 28-point plan doesn’t align with points 2 and 3, while also undermining Ukrainian sovereignty described in point 1, even if it technically preserves it.
Vance should be a bit more humble in his posts, because he is clearly out of his depth regarding the war in Ukraine

Right now, Europe is allowing Putin, who sees Europe as an enemy, and Trump, who is compromised by Russia as proven by Epstein emails, to decide Europe’s fate.
We could take our destiny back into our own hands by seizing Russian frozen assets now. Will we do it?

It’s not just Zelensky under pressure.
Russia is bleeding economically, and Ukraine’s deep strikes are working.
Moscow knows it will get worse, so it uses Trump to pressure Kyiv into accepting Russia’s maximalist demands

Why does Europe, in November 2025, still allow these two men who hate Europe to decide its fate?
We need to take our future back into our own hands, and we can do that by providing Ukraine with the frozen Russian assets

Trump is a traitor, but we wouldn’t be in this situation had Europe provided Ukraine with the frozen Russian assets.
Ukraine would have far more leverage.
It’s not too late to do it now!
Belgium’s legal fears cannot outweigh Ukraine’s survival

Trump's peace deal is bad but it's still much better than what was discussed in Istanbul in 2022.
A deal in Istanbul would have allowed Russia to reach its initial strategic goals of the war, while the current deal wouldn't, which is a massive difference

As Trump openly sides with Russia while trying to force Russia’s maximalist demands on Ukraine, remember this:
We have proof he is being blackmailed by Russia thanks to Epstein’s help. It’s in the Epstein emails.
Trump should not even be involved in the negotiations

5/11 Why now?
Zelensky is under pressure. Trump acts like a mafia boss, exploiting Ukraine’s vulnerabilities to push a deal for Moscow.
The US will pressure Ukraine to accept and blame it if it refuses
