  1. That’s great to hear. We (GB) should stand up more to Trump and call out his bullshit. I’m hoping this brings us and other European countries closer together. USA has made it clear that they need to stay out of this

  2. It should ring alarm bells even in an idiot’s mind that Trump has so much vitriol for the person whose country is being invaded and none for the person who’s invading the country.

  3. As well he should. Odd that he is the first one to do it. Other leaders should be immediately saying this.

  4. I am so embarrassed that Trump is our president. Starmer is standing up for what’s right here.

  5. Holy shit this is the worst timeline.

    I feel so fucking weird saying this but maybe it’s time to restart those nuclear tests and get rid of those US military bases all over Europe. We shan’t be following the orange buffoon with a russian dick in his mouth into oblivion.

  6. It’s crazy to think that this man has completely unraveled international allegiances and alliances in a matter of hours today. Amazing!

  7. >Sir Keir spoke to Zelensky on the phone on Wednesday evening and said it was “perfectly reasonable” for Ukraine to “suspend elections during war time as the UK did during World War II”, Downing Street said.

    You just gave Trump the precedent to start a war, have him circle back and say something along the lines of, “every country employs this tradition….beautiful tradition wonderful tradition…”

    Except he’ll never give up the presidency until he succumbs to golfing.

  8. imagine a cunt with bonespurs calling anybody a coward.

  9. Trump loves dictators

    Zelenskyy is “a dictator”

    Trump doesn’t love Zelenskyy

    If only there was some simple logical conclusion to this apparent paradox

  10. Supporting Ukraine is a very widely supported thing across all Europe. I am sure it is also supported in the US it is just that Trump is very easily influenced by “strongman” mentality. If he perceives someone as strong he takes in their view as they are fed without questioning any of it. He doesn’t listen to reason or logic or needs, he listens to people based on who the information is coming from and that person must come across as strong in Trump’s eyes. Putin apparently is one of those people, so Trump takes in all the Russian narrative without any questions. This is a very dangerous quality for a president….

  11. Zelensky was democratically voted in and its against the Ukrainian constitution to have an election during wartime.

    Rightfully so he called bullshit. I’d be more upset if our leader hadn’t. Good for Kier

    Edit: There’s also an almost perfect irony to Trump on the same day declaring “LONG LIVE THE KING” about himself on a completely unrelated issue

  12. There is no peace deal without Ukraine at the table. Putin and his bitch have no authority to negotiate a deal on behalf of Ukraine.

  13. Trump and his cult are setting the stage for ‘if your country does not do what we want, invasion is totally justified’.
    Thanks so much christian’s who voted for an evil, disgusting traitor. Jesus would be so proud!

  14. imagine if farage were pm. ‘yes Mr Putin, no Mr Putin’. We’d be sending UK troops to replace the NKs

  15. – Step One: Call Zelensky a dictator.
    – Step Two: Call for elections
    – Step Three: Putin and Trump install a Russian loyalist as Ukraines leader
    – Step Four: New leader, Trump and Putin negotiate surrendering terratories to Russia, Trump gets the earth minerals hes been wanting and can pay Putin back for the election interference..

    Starmer supporting Zelensky is great but little does he know, they plan to try this narrative against the UK too.. They wont stop untill they have favourable far right puppets in these positions..

    If these guys were any more transparent they’d be ghosts..

  16. Starmer again positively suprises. Let us hope he is the man we need.

  17. Vlad gets his wish. The EU and the US drift apart.

    Well played.

  18. Say what you want about Starmer, he was a human rights lawyer, he knows where his values are.

  19. Trump was bought by putin. I think it happened before trump’s first term. this is everything Putin could have ever hoped for. Trump is a traitor.

  20. Trump does not seem to understand that every single serious nation, even small ones can develop nukes in just a few months, it’s old tech. That will be the result with a US which abandons its role as the global leader – 50+ nations with nukes…

    He also does not understand that as the world leader, the US has been able to negotiate extremely favorable trade deals with most nations as they control the seas.

    The US is throwing away the enormous advantage they have enjoyed over the past 70+ years because of this idiot.

    The funny thing is though – This is not really even only Trump’s fault, this is a result of ridiculous policies pursued by the democrats, a result of a self perpetrating spiral of virtue. Policies like open immigration and weird gender laws gave a candidate like Trump an open goal to score cheap political wins, which should never have been an option in the first place.

    We have seen similar candidates be successful around the world because of similar policies and if not Trump it would have been someone else. Even though I have a hard time seeing someone quite as unhinged as Trump.

    The man is a textbook narcissist with a self confidence so comically high its ridiculous. Even now he can’t admit that he lost 2020, and I don’t think he has ever admitted to ever making a mistake ever, he talks about himself in 3rd person and lies, cheats and brags pathologically.

    In 99.99% of worlds Trump is a joke, someone you laugh at. But we live in the one reality where he is the most powerful man in the world.

    Hopefully the world can weather this whirlwind and somehow the US regains its sanity in 2028, but honestly I’m not so sure that will be the case…

  21. Russian propaganda is not the only thing of Putin’s that Trump loves swallowing

  22. Uk and the EU are finally waking up, we don’t need y’all-queda nor have we ever. We are the originators of western civilization and will continue to be here long into the future.
