  1. Title is misleading, should read “The U.S. has switched sides”

  3. The US has always been on its own side. That never changed.

  5. More fool them. Anyone that calculates that Russia is a more powerful ally than Europe is not very good at calculation. 

  6. Russia has a smaller economy than Italy, but Trump is more attracted to dictator types than leaders who cares about freedom and democracy.

  7. No, the US is simply bowing out. There is a difference. To be honest: I hate Trump, but his attitude in this instance appears to be that the best solution at this point is the one resulting in the fewest dead people. Just this once, I agree with him. Until every single Ukrainian on that front line is a volunteer, I will continue to agree with him. The right of the state to survive does not outweigh the right of the individual to exist.

  8. Can the Trump supporters who were jerking themselves off in this sub last week chime in to talk about how MAGAts are not controlled by Russia again?

  9. As soon as trump was elected there was no more alliance, the guy that blackmailed Ukraine in his first term, he’s a complete conman with Dark Triad traits.

  13. Nothing new here Trump is Putin bitch the weakest president US ever had

  14. You should check out the hot mike, Fox video. He’s caught praising N. Korea’s communist leader, he wants his people to act more like communists. Dude is a closet communist.

  16. Canada and EU standing with Ukraine. We remember our histories.

    Canada now facing its big neighbour trying to force Canada to do what the neighbour (USA) wants. Smaller countries must stand together, united, against the bullies of this world.

  18. CALL Your Senator and POS GOP Congresspersons and Call them OUT for their Cowardice. Stand For Democracy not a Sadistic MadMan

  19. Didn’t Zelenskyy just put out a statement about having a good talk with Trump?

  21. Damn I thought you meant they switched to Ukraines side… Krashnov has been licking Putin’s balls since day one…

  22. If Ukraine is to be saved, Europe must do it. It was a mistake to have relied on the US as the savior for all the years since WW2. The era of Trumpism shall pass, but if Europe does not make an even greater commitment to Ukraine now, Ukraine will be lost. If Russia gains Ukraine’s industry, agriculture and technology Europe may be at the mercy of Putin.

  23. No, the US switched sides last year when they elected this idiot. It only took about half a year for ordinary people and reporters to figure that out.

    I was telling you already last year exactly this will happen and was being downvoted for spreading nonsense and told that Trump is going to be great to Ukraine, because he’s not so weak like Biden and that Putin actually respects him.
