1 month agoI wonder [not to give him any credit] if DJT would be a better president if he were surrounded by actual decent people that were earnest/honest. It feels like it could be in the realm of possibility that he’s treating the Ukraine/Russia conflict the way he has simply because the people around him are only giving him a specific narrative surrounding it. Either intentionally, incidentally, due to incompetence or sycophantic attempts to “please” trump.
Maybe this is the first time getting it from Ukraine’s point of view, unfiltered.
Doesn’t change/nor justify his shitty behavior, but… it makes a kind of sense.
I’m just so fucking pissed that Trump keeps pulling his fucking punches. He’s made so many missteps only to walk them back at the last minute. Still fucking horrible, still hurting people, but avoiding the vast majority of the actual impact and lethality of his decisions.
Tariffs being example A, B, C and D.
I do NOT want prices to skyrocket, I do not want people to suffer, I do not want a fucking civil war. But holy shit. You can’t play stupid chicken as the president and continuously get away with saying “oops” sorry someone else ruined the sick flip I was going to do over and over.
If he’d been forced to commit, he’d likely already be dead or out of office.
I’m so fucking exhausted.
