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.”

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?
Sad times are these, when well-meaning jests have to be accompanied by /s, because reality is more insane than any joke you could ever imagine.
Stupid sexy Flanders
It’s like wearing nothing at all! ….nothing at all! ……nothing at all!
Is it illegal to say ‘the president of the united states of america deserves to die’?

“Look what you made me do it to you…”
I can’t believe they told russia to invade them.
Crimea was an inside job!
It was all their fault.they existed. They were breathing and worst of all they didn’t want their land stolen. How dare they?
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.
Wait, what was the Helsinki Summit?
The first time a sitting US president and RU president spoke to each other alone with just an interpreter and no official transcript.
And didn’t a load of GOP Congress people fly over for a meeting at one point that no one knows why they did it.
On July 4th to boot
One of you should learn to shoot straight.
and not one dome would have been knocked down
… what?
Is he talking about the deliberate attack on Chernobyl recently?
Does Ukraine also have those ornate, domed church designs like Russia?
Not quite like the one you’re thinking of (St. Basil’s in Moscow) but yes, these ones are just in Kyiv: https://www.erikastravels.com/the-churches-of-kiev/
I though Russia was claiming they were attacking Nazis in Ukraine and that’s why they went to war or something… I forget
Calling it a war will land you in gulag comrade
Not a war, a ‘denazification operation’. (I remember a couple of years ago back on The Website when I saw this post about Russia bombing a Holocaust memorial. So yes, denazification or whatever euphemism Putty wants to use indeed.
Russia took the final step into fascism in 2022.
But its useful to understand that Nazi in Russia, just means someone who opposes Russia, (and Russians can’t see their country as anything other than an imperialist warmonger, spheres of influence and fighting in massive wars is a cornerstone of what Russians think is their national identity thanks to decades of propaganda and abuse)
And Trump is just repeating what his master Putin told him to say.
“9/11 would not have happened if America kept out of the Middle East” ahh energy
Leave it to the convicted rapist to blame the victim.
He’s sucking up to his benefactor and handler Putin.
It is everyday when I check the News this Bellend is talking a pile of crap.
As always our glorious leader is correct in all things. /s
