Fable one: Trump is appeasing Russia?
Who wiped out the Wagner group in Syria? Who sold offensive weapons to Ukraine first? Who warned Germany not to become dependent on the Russian Nord Stream II deal?
Who withdrew from an unfair missile deal with the Russians? Who cajoled and berated NATO members to meet their military investment promises made following the 2014 invasion of Ukraine?
In contrast, who originally conceived a Russian “reset” in 2009? Who publicly virtue-signaled pushing the red “reset” button in Geneva with the current Russian Minister Sergey Lavrov?
Which ex-European leader got a million euros a year working for Russian energy companies?
Of the last four presidents, under whose watch did Putin not invade another country?
Which American president, in hot-mic style, offered to (and did) dismantle U.S.-Eastern Europe missile defense plans in exchange for temporary Putin quietude (“space”) to aid his 2012 reelection?
Fable two: A trade war?
President Donald Trump is not wildly slapping tariffs on Europeans.
He is simply saying that 1945 is now 80 years past and that the asymmetrical tariffs that Europe imposes on U.S. imports should be corrected. The massive trade surpluses Europe accumulates each year should give way to fairer, more balanced trade.
If Europe does not want tariffs, then simply calibrate its own tariffs on what America places on European imported goods, and work down jointly to zero tariffs on both sides.
Fable three: America is bullying Europe?
The U.S. does not actively interfere in European elections and politics.
In 2024, Europeans, especially the British Laborites, bragged about sending over campaign “volunteers” to work against Trump and, earlier, his conservative predecessors.
British subject Christopher Steele sought to sabotage an entire American 2016 election with a falsified “dossier.”
The Ukrainian ambassador in 2016 wrote an op-ed all but endorsing Hillary Clinton and trashing her opponent.
In September 2024, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was flown in on a Biden-provided U.S. military jet to Scranton, Pennsylvania — at a pivotal time in the most pivotal swing state — to surround himself with Democrat politicos.
His media-frenzied presence signaled a partisan campaign theme that a Kamala Harris win and the continuance of massive Democrat aid to Ukraine would ensure manufacturing jobs, such as the artillery shell factory he selected to visit.
As to NATO, Trump’s pressure from 2017 to 2021 finally pushed more NATO nations to rearm. But even 11 years after promising to invest a mere 2 percent of GDP in defense, nine of the 32 members still have not complied.
Fable four: Negotiating with Putin is selling out?
In the long history of Western diplomacy with mass-murdering tyrants, Putin doesn’t even rank among the worst. Just ask his former reset partners Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
FDR fueled mass-murdering “Uncle Joe” Stalin’s Red Army as a way to defeat Nazi Germany.
Richard Nixon flattered and cajoled the greatest mass murderer in history, Mao Zedong, to triangulate China against the Soviet Union.
Ronald Reagan offered to share missile defense expertise with Soviet Russia.
Europeans have hosted almost every Palestinian murderous terrorist leader, as a way either of deflecting terrorism from their own shores or emphasizing their general loathing of Israel.
Fable five: Europe is going to save Ukraine?
Europe rushed to congratulate and celebrate with Zelenskyy after his pre-planned White House blow-up. They are loudly announcing that a supposedly isolationist and appeasing U.S. — which has sent more aid to Ukraine than all nearby European nations combined — will now be supplanted by a “new” muscular and rearmed Europe.
We sincerely hope so.
But on every recent international moral question — ganging up on a lone Israel to appease terrorist forces in the Middle East, standing up to China’s mercantilism, neo-imperialism, and domestic oppression of minorities, or Russia’s prior 2008 and 2014 invasions — European outrage has been muted, real consequences nonexistent.
We are now witnessing European heads of state sending the same old virtue signaling support for the brave Zelenskyy, who supposedly spoke truth to power to the mean U.S. Orange Man.
But where does such performance art lead after the cult hero Zelenskyy had gnawed the hand that gorged him?
To multitudes of European tanks, skies full of European jets, and division after division of crack European infantry now heading east to “back up” Ukraine — led on horseback by its new Joan of Arc, Ursula von der Leyen?
Aside from all the present posturing and mock-heroics, the only way to save Ukraine is for the U.S. president, Donald Trump, to reflect joint Ukrainian, American, and European interests in stopping the war, forcing Putin as far back eastward as possible where he started in 2022, and creating a credible deterrent along with a DMZ/industrial corridor tripwire to stop another 2008, 2014, and 2022 invasion.
Anything else is empty carnival barking.
Shall we start adding some new nominations for Pinocchio for all this load of Poppycock/Balderdash when can we open the Envelope and Read their Names
As usual, VDH cuts to the chase. The international media, the feckless EU and the Democrat Party try to establish a narrative to snow citizens of the world to believe the absolute worst about President Trump. While he is attempting to do something they’ve failed to do. Stop the slaughter. There are too many alternative news sources telling the truth. And they hate it. Scream “misinformation “. But, we’re onto them. Big time.
Ukraine does not need to be saved from Russia, Russia needs to be saved from the psychopathic globalists who also want to destroy our liberties in the U.S, and in Europe. If America and Russia establish friendly relations the globalist cabal is done. That’s why they are so desperate to continue the war, even sending their own people and even risking nuclear war. I know a lot of Keir Starmer and Ursula von der Leyen fans will downvote this lol.
Shame on you!

The war in Ukraine will end when Putin says it will and there is nothing Trump or anyone else can do about it short of all-out war. And if that should happen, we will get our asses beat because of what Biden and Obama have done to weaken our military. Will take five years plus to get back to the troop strength and readiness needed to be successful on the battlefield. One should also remember who started this whole shit show in Ukraine. In 2014 Obama, his State Dept. and his CIA created the Maiden coup which overturned a duly elected govt to create problems for Russia. This previous meddling has now come back to haunt us.
The maiden coup maybe why Trump said Russia did not start this war . So a illegal coup was followed by a illegal invasion .
You speak as a Putinverstehener…

”Burisma.”(mic drop)
Why no mention of the tariffs on Mexican imports?
There was also no mention of Easter eggs.
Putin is as evil as Stalin & would destroy the Culture & Territory of Ukraine; as per his writings and speeches. We are in a forever war with Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. We want to stop the war, but we do not want Munich 1938. Peace must be real. We took the nuclear weapons from Ukraine and we owe them security. If we don’t want to give them the security they need, then why are we stopping them from building nuclear weapons to replace the ones that they lost. This is not about Zelensky; this is about the 100 years that Russia has tried to destroy the Ukrainian people.
Sorry, but you don’t know what you are talking about.
I was born in Ukraine and spent half of my life there under Soviet rule, with politburo in Moscow running the show. Moscow was not at all “destroying Ukrainian people”, on the opposite Ukranians were promoted to top positions, Ukrainian was an official second language, I went to a school where Ukrainian was the primary language though everyone in my city was speaking Russian. Look what was happening in Ukraine for the last 15 years: Russian language was totally suppressed despite significant percent of ethnic Russians and other ethnicities in Ukraine. Ukrainian nationalism is destroying Ukraine.
No Putin is at least as honorable and as trustworthy as Biden

Yes, the government of Ukraine, the entire surrounding of Zelensky and he on his own are ugly, unprofessional, bought and sold by Soros, the democrat party, and filled with Putin’s plants. This is a tragedy for Ukraine – but also a tragedy for the civilization and the old world order too. For it is the shame for the West that it is incapable of confronting the so obvious aggressor as Putin.
“Fable” one: All these right actions by Pres. Trump mentioned by you took place in the past, just as his past claim, that he would never recognize the taking of Crimea. Now, alas, Pres. Trump speaks out the Putin’s talk points…
“Fable” four: Negotiating with Putin IS humiliating and shameful! And your entire content of this point is shameful, rather than being good precedents to refer to.
That is why I wrote this letter: http://judeochristianamerica.org/OpenLetter/ToTrump2025.htm
So: Western Europe is going to foolishly risk war with Russia, without our help. Problem is, we smartly pulled out of that war, and they are still on-script with the war. They don’t know how to get off-script, now that we have pulled out.
