By a remarkable coincidence, Donald Trump’s view of the Russian invasion of Ukraine is now exactly the same as Vladimir Putin’s
I wouldn’t be surprised if this had been translated directly from the Russian:
@realDonaldTrump
Think of it, a modestly successful comedian, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, talked the United States of America into spending $350 Billion Dollars, to go into a War that couldn’t be won, that never had to start, but a War that he, without the U.S. and “TRUMP,” will never be able to settle. The United States has spent $200 Billion Dollars more than Europe, and Europe’s money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back. Why didn’t Sleepy Joe Biden demand Equalization, in that this War is far more important to Europe than it is to us — We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation. On top of this, Zelenskyy admits that half of the money we sent him is “MISSING.” He refuses to have Elections, is very low in Ukrainian Polls, and the only thing he was good at was playing Biden “like a fiddle.” A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left. In the meantime, we are successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia, something all admit only “TRUMP,” and the Trump Administration, can do. Biden never tried, Europe has failed to bring Peace, and Zelenskyy probably wants to keep the “gravy train” going. I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered, and MILLIONS have unnecessarily died – And so it continues…..

Remember “the Russia hoax?”
I would say that the fact that Trump’s unconditional acceptance of Putin’s aggression just took place in Munich is a bit too on the nose, but as Voltaire pointed out, “witticisms do not go well with massacres.”
Brother Damilaville has doubtless sent you, my dear philosopher, the “Narrative” of Abbeville. I cannot conceive how thinking beings can live in a land of apes who so often turn into tigers. For my part, I am ashamed to be even on the frontier. Truly, this is the moment to break all one’s ties, and hide the shame and horror of one’s soul in some far off land. I have not been able to get the report of the barristers’ consultation: you doubtless have seen it–and shuddered. The moment for jesting has gone by: witticisms do not accord with massacres. What! these Busirises in wig and gown condemn to death in the most horrible tortures children of sixteen! and that against the judgment of ten humane and upright judges! And the nation allows it! People discuss it for five minutes, and then go on to the Opéra-Comique: and inhumanity, growing more and more insolent on the strength of our silence, tomorrow will cut the throats for which her fingers are itching–yours, first of all, for you have raised your voice against her.
