Folks, this is nothing new.
This is the racism that helped Trump get elected in the first place. He said he doesn't want people coming in from "shit hole countries" and also promoted the Muslim Ban.
America said don't take him literally or seriously.

All of you know Trump is the US president who surrendered in Afghanistan, right? Made a deal in 2020 cutting out the Afghan govt, let thousands of Taliban fighters out of jail in exchange for nothing.

While I don’t believe the conspiracy theories that Trump is a Russian asset, it’s obvious Trump defers to Putin-whether it’s due to kompromat, cowardice, ignorance or mere admiration for tyrants
Plus he probably doesn’t care what happens to Ukraine or Russia
He just wants credit for ending the war

If the 28-point plan came from Russia and somehow ended up in the hands of U.S. lawmakers, then we don’t have a “leak” problem we have a foreign influence problem. And anyone downplaying that should not be anywhere near national security decisions.

Trump’s so-called "peace plan" is a blueprint for Russian victory. Forcing Ukraine to surrender any territory under threat is not diplomacy—it’s appeasement that guarantees future conflict. We must not reward Putin’s aggression with Ukrainian land.
