    How could he escalate? He is shipping in fucking North Koreans to fight for him because he can’t find enough Russians. Misleading bullshit headline.

      Trump is actually going to try to claim the Ukrainian victory for himself isn’t he?

        I think hell cut an unfair deal to Ukraine, accept it largely without their negotiation, cut help, and claim victory for himself. This idea will run largely unopposed amongst his cult members.

        No. He’s going to pull out of NATO, and send russia some working nukes.

                  No. Trump will claim he ended the war no matter what way it ends. That’s pretty obvious by his past actions and is what everyone is trying to to tell you.

        Victory? What victory? He’s going to cut off all support and present Ukraine with a choice between handing Russia half of their country now, or all of it in a year’s time. And Putin will say “Good doggy” and pat his head just like he so desperately wants.

      I don’t think it’s necessarily a misleading headline. I don’t doubt for a second that Trump would make some meaningless demand with no regard for reality

        The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799 ()) is a United States federal law that criminalizes the negotiation of a dispute between the United States and a foreign government by an unauthorized American citizen. The intent behind the Act is to prevent unauthorized negotiations from undermining the government’s position.

    The news today is that 50,000 Russians and Korean troops are massing. I really don’t think Putin cares what Trump says.
