President Donald Trump suggested Tuesday that Ukraine was responsible for Russia’s invasion of the country three years ago, arguing Kyiv could have made a deal to avoid the conflict.
“You should have never started it,” Trump said of Ukraine while criticizing President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who had expressed concern that his country was not included in talks between the U.S. and Russia in Saudi Arabia.
“I think I have the power to end this war, and I think it’s going very well. But today I heard, ‘Oh, well, we weren’t invited.’ Well, you’ve been there for three years,” Trump told reporters at his Mar-a-Lago resort. “You should have never started it. You could have made a deal.”
Trump went on to say: “I could have made a deal for Ukraine that would have given them almost all of the land, everything, almost all of the land, and no people would have been killed, and no city would have been demolished, and not one dome would have been knocked down. But they chose not to do it that way.”
yOu CoUlD hAvE mAdE a DeAl
god damn this guy is a smoothbrain.
And america voted for him to run their country.
I didn’t vote for that garbage
More likely Elon hacked the election. Before election day Trump said multiple tines, “Stay home. We don’t need votes, we have all the votes we need…”
Watch the clip of Muskrat and his evil munchkin spilling the beans.
He’s not smart enough to hack anything with a computer, certainly hacked it with money though.
I fully agree
They had no choice! The Dems should have put up a better candidate! Genocide! Gaza! Liberals! Woke! DEI! Anything but make me address the consequences of my action and/or inaction!

russia funds all of those groups, its not a coincidence they suddenly all appear around the time the us had thier elections.
Ruin*
I didn’t… i would NEVER vote for that prick. We were bad before, but now I don’t blame anyone for hating the US
I hate the US. That does not mean I hate all Americans, but jesus fuck, you guys fucked so many millions of people around the world voting for a literally human piece of shit. In not sure who’s worse, Hitler or Trump, but it looks like Trump might finally win something: being worse than Hitler.
Boris Johnson told Zelensky not to accept a peace agreement in 2022 when Russia was willing to let Zelensky sit at the table. Now the Ukrainians don’t even get to attend the peace talks, no doubt because the Russians know that it’s the British and the Americans who give Zelensky his orders. Blame whoever you want, the Ukrainians really did it to themselves.
Yes, that URL doesn’t seem a biased outlet
You really shouldn’t waste eggs by putting them on your face like that. They’re expensive.
Zelensky is clearly a weak leader as he can’t even control his former staff. The negotiator goes out, gives an interview saying Johnson gave Zelensky his marching orders, and all you can do is pretend I should be embarrassed? Zelensky was a fool to trust the British, a people known to have cheated and humiliated people across the entire world.
This idea that the NATO powers that gave Ukraine weapons have no influence is very silly. As we’re seeing right in front of our eyes, Trump expects to collect payment for those weapons by taking Ukrainian resources. Of course they wanted Ukraine to prolong the war, accept more weapons, and rack up more debt. Johnson showed up, told them to keep fighting and likely whatever else Zelensky wanted to hear and now we’re at this outcome. Zelensky is at home seething, egg on his face as Trump and Putin decide the fate of his country. Reality is right in front of you and yet you deny it. If Zelensky had any sort of political or military leverage he’d be at the peace talks too.
That’s a very strange reaction to being shown that the link you provided was a lie.
he sounds like a shill for vlad to me, similar thing that tulsi said on asian right wingers youtube channel.
It wasn’t a lie. I believe what the negotiator said in his interview. He’s telling the truth and Zelensky is lying.
Zelensky says it isn’t true, Johnson says it isn’t true, but some other random guy says it and you believe it. That’s pretty sad.
The head negotiator is not some random guy. Lmao 😂😂😂 This is such obvious cope.
If Ukraine didn’t want to be invaded, it shouldn’t have dressed that way! Stupid sexy Ukraine.
Right? It’s such a ridiculous statement. You’d think the president were a serial rapist, or something.
Wait… he is, isn’t he?
Stupid sexy Flanders
It’s like wearing nothing at all! ….nothing at all! ……nothing at all!
“if you didn’t want to get raped, then why did you dress so provocatively?”
This is only kind of hyperbole, since Trump was actually convicted of raping a woman…
the same script russia uses, trump gets his orders from putin. its also " you’re making me rape you"
“Grab’em by the resources. When you’re a superpower, they let you do it.”
He’s a rapist… of women, children, and now countries (allegedly, since he hasn’t been convicted of all three)
Don’t forget the Constitution
It was all their fault.they existed. They were breathing and worst of all they didn’t want their land stolen. How dare they?
Leave it to the convicted rapist to blame the victim.

I can’t believe they told russia to invade them.
Trump having a .ml Lemmy account was not on my bingo card
He got his tech guys to federate Truth Social with Lemmy
He is perfectly and unquestioningly following his owners commands, like any good dog. He just amplifies Putins position on this rape of another country 100%.
Look what you made me do
The abuser mantra
I’m sorry, baby. I still love your extractable minerals.
Putin’s puppet since Helsinki Summit.
Pretty sure he was already a puppet, that was just the rimming of the ring.
EDIT: Speaking of which, does anyone know if Marina Gross is still actually alive? I get not wanting media attention etc, but she seems like a ghost for someone that translates for world leaders.
Is it illegal to say ‘the president of the united states of america deserves to die’?

Sic semper tyrannis.
RIP Trevor Moore
He’s sucking up to his benefactor and handler Putin.
