I cannot fathom why any rational American would be defending Zelensky's antics right now. Not when we have so many problems on the homefront that are priority...and we've done MORE than our fair share to dig them out of that conflict.

Then it occurred to me. Trump has come out of the gate so hard for 30 days, there's a big part of this country that just can't stand it. Oh you found $50B in waste and fraud? We don't like it b/c we can't stand Trump. Some are progs, some are CMs, and some just can't stand the man, regardless of the issue.

So Z shows up acting like an ass, and Trump/Vance put him in his place. And a big number of idiots show up on this thread like there's something to dunk on Trump with. Just pathetic.

Here's how to fix it though: flip your FB profiles to Blue/Yellow again, start writing personal checks to a GoFundMe for Z, and sign your kids up for service overseas. Since you're all so passionate about Ukraine's 'freedom'.

How would you help end this conflict if you were president?

---

Well for starters I wouldn't lay my cards down in the media at all. And if I did I'd let both sides know that they will have to give up something. And I sure as **** wouldn't play the innocent mediator that doesn't blame either side.

Russia doesn't have a lot of cards either. And yet we keep handling them with kid gloves. Trump once said that he'd get a deal and said that if Russia didn't play along he'd arm Ukraine to the teeth. And now he literally can't say a single negative thing about them.

---

Russia has plenty of cards. More than Ukraine. They have nukes. They'll keep throwing endless bodies at the fight and they already mobilized their industrial complex. They also now have China and North Korea as friends.

---

Russia doesn't have endless bodies. That's a myth. And it's always why they are now having to use North Korean conscripts

---

Ok, they still have nukes, are friends with China and NK, they have more bodies and more weapons. So yeah, they have more cards.

---

Nukes aren't much of a card unless you're willing to burn your own country down. And they are even less of a card in a simple land grab. Irradiating the country you want to take over doesn't make a lot is sense. And what will being friends with NK get them? More useless conscripts? More artillery rounds with an exceptionally high dud rate?

Russia is a shell of who they were.

---

If Russia was smart they would let US aid expire and maintain the stalemate while systematically exhausting Ukraines supply of manpads. Then focus on achieving air superiority and bomb the Ukrainian population into oblivion ala US/British bombing of WWII Germany. No more ground fighting until Ukraine is literally on fire.

Anything short of that would ensure an occupation with endless guerrilla warfare like in Afghanistan that I do not think the Russians can ultimately win.

The only real question is would NATO stand by and watch that happen to civilians.

Agreed. If Zelenskyy showed up in a monocle and top hat Trump would have still bent over backwards to not say a single thing mean about Russia and insulted Ukraine to their president's face.

And we'd be right here anyway.

We all can hope that Trump reverses his stance on this and avoid global war!

When you see a bully picking on a small kid with a lot of fight, but he stands no chance you break it up.

Ya but you generally don't end it by telling the small kid to lay there until the bully is done beating the **** out of him. Then blame the kid for it.

---

Grow up. We're not going to hold productive peace negotiations with Russia if our representatives go excoriate Russia in the press every time they get up from the negotiating table.

Here's reality: Whether you think it's bull**** or not (and I tend to think it's bull****), Russia/Putin felt like they had to invade Ukraine to maintain their national security. Therefore, any fruitful negotiation must acknowledge and accommodate that belief. You have to say "yes I can see where you're coming from" and at minimum convincingly act like you mean it. The peace negotiations MUST address those security concerns in some way and you initially do that by acting like you're taking him seriously.

That's why Z sounded like such a dumbass today. He knows that's what we have to do but instead of sitting there like an adult, he threw a tantrum over it like a toddler.

---

Imagine Reagan telling his staff to be nice to Russia and not upset them. Jeez weve fallen far.

We can insult Russia all we want, but if we want to negotiate a peace treaty that avoids future wars, then we can't mock their concerns. We have to take them seriously.

MaroonBloodedTexan said:

The Trump-Vance-Zelensky meeting wasn't strength or strategyit was a reckless display that weakened America and handed Putin a win. A real conservative foreign policy is about deterrence, alliances, and maintaining global influence, not performative grandstanding. Today, Trump didn't project powerhe projected unreliability.

Calling Ukraine aid a "grift" ignores history. Reagan armed anti-Soviet fighters, Nixon backed Israel, and Eisenhower kept Europe secureall to prevent hostile powers from expanding. If Ukraine were a corrupt puppet, Putin wouldn't have needed to invade. The real "grift" is pretending that letting Russia seize land will somehow lead to peace. Every broken agreementBudapest, Minskproves otherwise. Appeasement has never stopped a dictator, and it won't stop Putin.

This wasn't realism; it was isolationism dressed up as toughness. Nixon didn't strengthen U.S. ties by humiliating allies. Reagan didn't defeat the Soviets by calling them "whiny." Serious leadership means shaping the world to our advantage, not insulting partners on TV. Trump and Vance didn't advance American interests todaythey embarrassed them.

And for all the outrage over aid, here's the reality: U.S. support for Ukraine has been one of the best strategic investments in modern history. A fraction of our defense budgetmost of it spent on American-made weaponshas devastated one of our biggest adversaries without a single U.S. soldier in harm's way. Russia's military has been gutted, their global influence diminished, and their economy crippled. For a cost that's less than what we spent in a single year in Afghanistan, we've neutralized a major threat. That's not charity. That's a bargain.

Good takes here.

Russia is in trouble long term. The decline in birth rates there signals tough times ahead and this war killing so many of their young men is only going to exacerbate it.
