This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

It sounds to me like he got a talking to from Hyundai and/or the South Korean government.
Trump: "I think we may have learned something, because when [immigrants] come here and there's nobody who can do what they're supposed to be doing and they bring people, those people could teach our people...Something very interesting could come out of that."

I am looking for congressional leaders to come out quickly and forcefully against this. We need unequivocal opposition. We need theatric demonstrations of defiance. We need to see leadership. Trump will steamroll us all if we display weakness. Where are our leaders?
