Kamala Harris warned that "Putin would eat Trump for lunch" - and indeed, Trump's brinkmanship has only led to more bombs and dead Ukrainians. "24 hours" has so far turned into 74 days. And nothing.
So sorry! It seems more and more that DT owes Putin mightily. DT is the worst President—incapable of the job and his South African sidekick has been given free reign to dissemble the govt. We citizens who care are suffering from shock and awe and don’t know how to stop this descent into madness! Putin is clearly a war criminal—two mentally deficient old men who should be retired and sent to a country compound ( some might think I mean jail and they would be right—sharing adjoining cells)!
At the “Hands Off” protest today in Montpelier, Vermont (one of over a thousand venues for anti-trump expression), along with the signs that said “Hands Off Social Security” or “Hands Off our First Amendment”, there were plenty of “Stand With Ukraine” signs and Ukraine flags.
We couldn’t make the Biden administration adequately support Ukraine, and now we can’t make the trump regime stop supporting Russia, which makes MANY of us cringe in rage, but we’re working on it.
Apologies from the majority of Americans, who are horrified by the evil perpetrated by Putin, who now has the American President as a lackey. Zelensky, fortunately, like so many other world leaders, knows that you have to play to trump's deeply pathological narcissism and self-loathing. Make him feel like a great guy and trump will throw an agenda out the window and be nicer to someone making him feel good. Pathetic.
Trump is golfing 3-4 days per week. No one tells him what is going on. There are more horrible people behind Trump who are complicit in the deaths of Ukrainians. He will not know or care about what is happening in Ukraine (or anywhere except the golfing green).
American citizens are with you. Except for the hardcore MAGA nuts, Americans support Ukraine. We know Putin is evil. We are also nauseated by our government. We are shocked by the Russian missiles hitting playgrounds. We are still here, sending you support.
American citizens voted this man into office. It was a majority, based on popular vote and based on the actual election system that no one outside the USA really understands. Admit it, that something went terribly wrong, appologize and do everything that is possible to correct your collective mistake as soon as possible and with all means. Don't tell the Ukrainians that "Americans citizens are with you" and "Americans support Ukraine" because it is not in line with the facts. The Ukrainians are thrown under the bus by the USA, insulted, belittled and denied. It sounds a bit like the "thoughts and prayers" statement after the school shootings that take place on a regular basis and also take innocent lives.

Jesus Christ Almighty. Felon 47 is down with murder of innocents. I have to ask myself why I am not surprised. And why America is not thoroughly repulsed by him. God help us all
It seems this is not the first time someone has wondered about such claims.
Here’s an excerpt of an article from the “Hollywood Reporter”, titled
“Donald Trump Angled for Soviet Posting in 1980s, Says Nobel Prize Winner (Exclusive)”
BY SCOTT FEINBERG
MAY 26, 2017 6:15AM
“He already had Russia mania in 1986, 31 years ago,” asserts Bernard Lown, a Boston-area cardiologist known for inventing the defibrillator and sharing the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize with a top Soviet physician in recognition of their efforts to promote denuclearization. Lown, now 95 and retired in Newton, Massachusetts, tells The Hollywood Reporter that Trump sought and secured a meeting with him in 1986 to solicit information about Mikhail Gorbachev. (Gorbachev had become the USSR’s head of state — and met with Lown — the year before.) During this meeting, Lown says, the fast-rising businessman disclosed that he would be reaching out to then-President Ronald Reagan to try to secure an official post to the USSR in order to negotiate a nuclear disarmament deal on behalf of the United States, a job for which Trump felt he was the only one fit.”
“He said to me, ‘I hear you met with Gorbachev, and you had a long interview with him, and you’re a doctor, so you have a good assessment of who he is,'” Lown recalls. “So I asked, ‘Why would you want to know?’ And he responded, ‘I intend to call my good friend Ronnie,’ meaning Reagan, ‘to make me a plenipotentiary ambassador for the United States with Gorbachev.’ Those are the words he used. And he said he would go to Moscow and he’d sit down with Gorbachev, and then he took his thumb and he hit the desk and he said, ‘And within one hour the Cold War would be over!’ I sat there dumbfounded. ‘Who is this self-inflated individual? Is he sane or what?'”
On March 17, 2023, The International Criminal Court in the Hague issued an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin and also for Maria Lovova-Belova, a Russian commissioner for children's rights. There is a list of other Russians who were named, all military officers, for directing attacks aimed at civilians and non-military targets. What does this mean? The 125 member states of the ICC are obligated to detain and transfer any of the indicted individuals if they set foot in their nations. While this little recourse at this time, his life is that of a hunted criminal. Thirty years ago, the ICC arrested the former president of Serbia for war crimes and crimes against humanity. He died in detention.
The ICC has limited military might and cannot march into the White House and grab Donald Trump. However, I am asking every American to write to the ICC and file a claim. It can be anonymously if you wish. The link is: https://www.icc-cpi.int/about/otp/otp-contact. The US is not a member state of the ICC, however a large portions of Trump's crimes - and Musks - were committed in member states. There are 33 African states that are members of the ICC. That membership is the qualifying factor.
In addition, the ICC has an ironclad agreement with the United Nations, who do have troops.
Please read my Substack titled: "Watching a Genocide Unfold" (whttps://egraham.substack.com/p/watching-a-genocide-unfold) which will provide you the death statistics in Africa since these two men closed USAID and the PEPFAR program. This program is estimated to have saved over "26 million lives due to HIV. Now, without the proper medications, an adult life will be lost every 3 minutes and a child will die every 31 minutes." (https://egraham.substack.com/p/contact-the-international-criminal). It is estimated that a death from TB will occur every 7 minutes and that about 10,000 people with TB have alread died due to the closure of USAID.
All of us across the U.S. - at least those with functioning brains - are agast at the death and destruction caused by both Trump and Musk. It is time to start fighting back.
It looks like President Trump and his negotiators are contestants on "The Apprentice" with Putin at the head of the table as Chairman of the Board (COB). The only problem is that the COB doesn't want to fire them and no one else has the power to do so. Unfortunately, this is all a tragedy that ordinarily would be comedic if it weren't costing innocent lives everyday. Kyiv attacks were the worst we have seen in a while just 2 nights ago.
We must make sure that the media stop calling this a ‘conflict’ and sanitising what has happened and will continue to happen. It’s a war. A war that involves an aggressive bully in Russia that doesn’t mind targeting innocent civilians. That is a war crime and we must not allow the world to believe it’s anything but a war crime.

Is the Hague keeping records on lump & putrid's war crimes? I know this doesn't help now but hopefully it will before lump is out of office.
USA doesn't belong to the ICC and rumpT will most likely stay put in mara lardo
President Trump is golfing and could not be reached for comment...
and musk on a reported 8 million per day, will he pay tax and ni on that, rather doubtfull
…huh ?! …”president”?!?!
…HE DID NOT RUN FOR ONE !!!
…first and simplest way to resist is STOP CALLING DICTATOR A PRESIDENT
…get it to your head
Shocker and costing us millions each weekend to golf. Destroyed others for golfing while in office.
At the “Hands Off” protest today in Montpelier, Vermont (one of over a thousand venues for anti-trump expression), along with the signs that said “Hands Off Social Security” or “Hands Off our First Amendment”, there were plenty of “Stand With Ukraine” signs and Ukraine flags.

Agent Krasnov will never bite the hand that keeps him off the gallows.

Trump is like the floating turd that won’t flush down the drain

Heart-rending unspeakable horror
Does “24 hours” mean one day?
(And what does an hour mean?)
It seems this is not the first time someone has wondered about such claims.

Thank you. As we always stress here at 'Two Grump Old Men' - keep that long perspective, it teaches you 'stuff'...... thank you.

Yes, agreed; his cruelty matches with friend Putin and Netanyahu...
We must make sure that the media stop calling this a ‘conflict’ and sanitising what has happened and will continue to happen. It’s a war.

Always a good point, Stephen, I'll remind everybody following us of your words, so true.
If there were a scale for Dunning-Krueger, Trump would be off the charts.
