Donald Trump, who publicly touts himself as a “dealmaker-in-chief,” is privately upset at his failure to strike deals to stop the two wars he has promised to end, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal.
At a closed-door meeting with top donors at Mar-a-Lago last week, Trump admitted that the frustration he feels from his inability to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine keeps him up at night, people in the room told the WSJ.
He said that Russian President Vladimir Putin, who Trump has frequently claimed is negotiating in good faith, has been driving an especially hard bargain. Putin wants “the whole thing,” Trump said, referring to Ukraine.
I’m trying to think of a time that a US president shat the bed this hard. Can’t. Trump is the worst in all cases and if he legitimately wanted to change the world for good and this wasn’t just about giving into all his egomania for control, he should excuse himself. He cannot unring all the bells he’s rung to try to fix it.
But let’s not kid ourselves : he will never step down. He is too much of a slave to his ego. He’s only going to make everything so much worse off just for the sake of his insatiable ego.
Also: he’s not the only one to blame here. All those voters putting him in power in a system that votes and not an oligarchy especially fucked this right up here. US wasn’t even an oligarchy society for the expressed intention to prevent something like this happening.
Yet they were hell bent on making it happen ‘just to own Libs’. The pettiest and stupidest reason to pick a leader. Everyone fucked themselves on this one.
