I cannot imagine the stress of the position that he is in. On top of the invasion, he knows full well that Trump is not on his side, but he still has to try.
As much as I wish that were possible, I think it’s honestly an unrealistic expectation. Trump fuckin HATES him.
It has nothing to do with hate. Trump is a pathetic parasite without a trace of backbone. He would work with a person who shat in his McDonald’s if he had something to gain from it (e.g JD Vance). Its just that he happens to be a russian asset.
No no - I mean that specifically and pointedly: orangeboi HATES Zelenskyy particularly, and personally, because he pushed back HARD last time he was in office and called him on his bullshit, which lead to one of (I’m laughing! I’m not crying! What are you talking about?) his impeachment attempts. He took it as a personal attack. Anytime someone doesn’t do what orangeboi says or wants, it’s a personal attack to him. That’s how his brain works.
It will be a steep learning curve to realize that owning and citing from a book (let’s say the art of the deal) doesn’t mean that the enormous effort that previous world leaders put into brokering peace agreements was because they were stupid or lazy. Unfortunately, predictably, “bullying everyone and everything” will not work, but putting the ball so clearly in Russia’s court is actually good progress.
Or he can reduce the number times he sucks Putin dick from three times times per week days and 8 times on weekends to just 20 times per week. That’ll teach him.
