1. Lmao what happened to 24 hours?

   At what point do you admit you were duped if you voted for this idiot?

2. He doesnt ‘understand’ it, he is aligned with it.

3. Well, that will probably be received well in Russia. I do not think it is generally a smart negotiating technique to already put this out there. Even if this is your position, it could have been used to get significant concessions from Putin. Now it is already clear Trump does not care about Ukraine, and Putin will probably revert to his maximalist pre-war demands that NATO withdraw from Eastern European countries. This coincides with Trump’s talking point that the US pays too much for NATO. It would not surprise me if the two of them negotiate some kind of settlement in Ukraine that sacrifices both Ukraine and the very loyal NATO allies in Poland and the Baltics.

4. 3 days to take Kyiv. 24 hours to stop the war. They are all insane.

5. Yeah ofc he does, and if you think he didn’t from the beginning you’re even dumber than he is

6. Huh. Surely this won’t have negative repercussions for those living in Ukraine or Russia. Right?

7. President shit pants doesn’t understand a fucking thing

8. “Although Trump has never filed for personal bankruptcy, hotels and casino businesses of his have declared bankruptcy[56] six times between 1991 and 2009 due to its inability to meet required payments and to re-negotiate debt with banks, owners of stock and bonds and various small businesses (unsecured creditors).[”

   I hope he doesn’t treat America the same way

9. 6months… thought he was gonna end both wars in 24hrs?

10. That’s a fair bit of slippage on the timetable, Don!

11. Time for Putin to get what he paid for

12. We’re CLEARLY screwed

13. He only understands it in so far as Putin has told him what to do.

14. President Donald Diaper at his finest. If Europe doesn’t get its shit together, I foresee dire times ahead and firstly Ukraine will pay the price for it.

15. I thought he was gonna end the war day 1? Old fart already breaking his promises to his cult.

16. Went from over in 24 hours to ill meet with putin in 6 months

17. We’ve gone from “I will end the war within 24 hours of being elected” to “I will meet with Putin within six months of taking office”.

18. Cozy up with Russia while antagonizing our longtime allies, unironically the West is truly falling.

19. I cannot believe most of you American asshats voted for this pro-russian tool.

20. Best perspective I’ve heard is by Douglas Rushkoff. Trump’s position is that of a crime boss. The mob divides the regions amongst the families. In trump’s view, Europe belongs to Putin. Trump has the Americas. Xi has Asia (and he’s free to take Taiwan because..it’s his to do with what he wants.

21. That’s what you get when half a country votes for an extreme narcissist.

22. 100% of headlines that start with any variation of “Trump says…” can be safely ignored.

23. He understands Putin, while also threatening his own allies.
    He is a traitor and he couldn’t be more blunt if he wanted to.
    How on earth republicans can’t see that he is a Russian asset, and his only job is to divide us all, is beyond me.

24. Trump’s knees are going to be red after he’s done asking daddy Putin to stop.

25. “I say words, and people dance for me”

26. The kinship of tyrants. How heart warming

27. Traitor Trump, sells out his allies and cozies up to his enemies, once again.

    Our country is fucked.

28. Within six months after he stops the war on the first day in office?

29. He promised he’d end the war in 24 hours. Is it possible he lied? Does this mean he’s not going to bring grocery prices down?! Oh no! How could we have seen this coming?! WHAT WILL WE DO?!?

30. He wont just stop support for Ukraine, he’ll start sending weapons to Russia.

31. Oh he understands. He has the script.

32. Trump giving Ukraine to Putin..
    Trump invading greenland, Canada and Panama..( and all that lies in beteeen)
    Trump giving Taiwan to China..
    Rest of world will be divided between the other dictators…
    Better start to learn either Russian and or Chinese in Europe..

33. 6 months? He was supposed to have this war ended already!

34. Wasn’t it supposed to be 24 hours?

35. When you have been saying “don’t pet the wild animal” for 9 years and people still vote for him…

36. You said day one bitch.

37. Considering Trump’s recent remarks about Greenland, Canada, Mexico and Panama, I believe he really *does* understand Putin…

38. I think we all understand Russia’s stance..

39. basically this is the end of his probationary period . . . ‘how’m I doin’ boss?’

40. He has a concept of an understanding.

41. Why 6 months? Can’t Vlad just email his orders tomorrow?

42. Surprised orange man hasn’t flown to Russia this week yet to continue his planning for Merika per his agreement with Pooter.

43. What is to understand? They invaded a sovereign country, stole their land, and are killing it’s people. There is no nuance here.

44. He fucking works for Putin. Of course he’ll meet with him.

45. He considers invading Canada.. so yeah, he understands Putin. He considers doing the same shit

46. This is what millions wanted? No wonder the usa is looked at with disgust

47. “Rapist will meet the mass murderer within 6 months.”
