    Putin just showed Trump how little he needs him

    How Trump backed away from promising to end the Russia-Ukraine war in
    24 hours

    April 24, 2025

    During his campaign, Donald Trump said repeatedly that he would be
    able to end the war between Russia and Ukraine "in 24 hours" upon
    taking office. He has changed his tone since becoming president again. https://apnews.com/article/trump-russia-ukraine-war-633a216d0506c82353fc7745b69c0fe0

    Well, pretty much every promise he made turned out to be an outright fabrication, and was debunked immediately.

    Putin is playing Trump like a maestro. Trump is nothing more than the
    sock puppet with Vlad's hand up his bunghole.

    Glad to see the press catching up though, idiots.

    I don't believe POTUS had a sincere interest, and offending Put seems
    to be off the table, from the beginning.

    It would appear a good portion of POTUS's show is being tapped danced
    by others, and his tariff/tax reasoning is without merit.

    What does "juvenile kid" mean?

    A "juvenile" is a person who has not attained his eighteenth birthday,
    and "juvenile delinquency" is the violation of a law of the United
    States committed by a person prior to his eighteenth birthday which
    would have been a crime if committed by an adult.

    Trump is nothing more...

    ".. The official, who asked for anonymity to discuss the president's
    private calls, said additional sanctions against Russia would hinder
    business opportunities and the president wants to maximize economic opportunities for Americans."
