1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

Donald Trump’s peace plan would be bad for Ukraine, Europe and America

Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

Evil Russia committing war crimes against a free nation. Sad that the west cannot fully sanction putin and help the Ukrainians with the weaponry that the nation needs to beat moscow.

Late October pro-tip from a Comm professor:

It's getting monstrous out there. Have a real, face-to-face conversation before the month ends. Find something you have in common

You won't change a view if you don't have a relationship.
