So the agreement the ghoul he put in place at the treasury department said was going to be signed soon will not be signed.
Remember when he said, "24 hours after he'd be president, he'd have peace?"
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
You misheard. He said after 24 hours he'd have a "piece" of Ukraine.
Just a little piece
Remember when he said, “24 hours after he’d be president, he’d have peace?”
That's part of a desensitization strategy where trumpy makes outlandish claims nobody takes seriously so if he manages to deliver on a single one out of hundreds of such, he's celebrated as a visionary. So republicans are measured by their successes and Democrats are measured by their failures, no matter how low those rates may be for each.
Yeah but on one hand you hold the possibility of peace and in the other rampant profiteering.
For an absolute scumbag the choice is obvious, no?
Counter-proposal:
Trump, not America, but Donald J Trump gets the entire of post-Soviet Ukraine, including 10th century Kievan Rus lands, on the condition that he settles those lands for 100 years. This is non-negotiable.
Let's let greed play itself out
A more realistic counter-proposal: Ukraine will negotiate a trade deal with China, because China is not under Putin's influence - on the contrary, Putin is heavily dependent on China and under their influence. At this point, they can tell him to stop. He's very low on reserves.

That is not the correct scene for this quote, isn't it?
That's Vader in the camber where Han is frozen and the exchange with Lando happens in front of a lift, doesn't it?
This is the correct scene. Citation
"This deal is getting worse all the time!" is the hallway one, but I thought the same as you!
Good thing this guy never owned a casino.
Oh, wait…
I don’t think people have caught onto the fact that you should never give into Trump’s demands… full stop.
The assumption that what you give to him is transactional and will make him stop doesn’t apply.
Giving in just shows you perceive your position as weak and he will ask for more or destroy you later.
Look at all the Broadcast networks that settled lawsuits and paid him off, look at Columbia university giving into his demands around student protests.
The list goes on and on with the same result you give in and he will ask for more or still seek to destroy you later. Giving in just makes him stronger.
It's bully logic.
No matter how much you give him it's never enough, because it isn't about the stuff, it's about the domination, that's literally all that matters.
Didn’t we used to put psychopaths in institutions with padded walls? Or is that just in movies??
JFK defunded them all, and Reagan put the nail in the coffin and shut them all down.
Ukraine stuck between good Putin and bad Putin.
I think you mean Bad putin and Worse putin. Neither of them are good.
Just Putin and Putin.
He will just hand them over to Russia
Ukrainian “freedom fighters” labeled “insurgents” in 3…2…1…
minerals like rubies or something
Old man throws toys out of pram. Everyone suffers, more in 5 mins when something else happens...
Fuck this robot, if he was a smart douche he would ask for 15% and give Putin 3-5 of the 15% to back off.
Can't hear you! Phone noises...hangs up. Requests visit in Ukraine near the Russian front for further instructions.
