Is it bad that nobody justifiably believes anything Putin says while the President of the United States believes everything he says?

Trump sympathizes with how stressful it would be for Putin to have to stop killing people for a while because of how inconvenient it would be for him to resume it. This whole thing is a farce. A charade. Putin is playing Trump like the useful idiot that he is.

With all this talk of how to end Russias war against Ukraine, and a cease fire, keep this in mind:
If Ukraine ceases firing, Ukraine will cease to exist.
If Russia ceases firing. the war will cease to exist.
Pretty clear

Your reminder that Donald Trump is no longer an outlier in the Republican Party.
His brand of anti-americanism is now their mainstream.
They are an ongoing threat to our freedoms and the stability of the United States.

Mobilizing Democrats and Independents to defeat the praetorian guard Republicans in 2026 remains the overarching goal in order to protect our democracy. Contributing in any way to Indivisible or Mobilize will add to the momentum we now need to defeat the fascist onslaught.

Trump said Ukraine “has nothing unless I approve it”, it is pure arrogance. Ukraine is not a bargaining chip and Zelensky is not a subordinate waiting for permission.
People need to understand this invasion is not about Trump’s ego or dealmaking fantasies with Putin.
Fuck Trump.

US President is an obviously disturbed person (beyond corrupt, uninformed, authoritarian, incompetent). Everyone around the world knows this, except many Americans, because Corporate Media *sanewashes* him.

I always thought Plato was pretty pollyannaish on this point, but this is decent evidence for the view that a man of bad character will therefore be unhappy even with every external trapping of success and good fortune.
President Donald Trump gifted the world with nearly 200 Truth Social posts (and counting) on Christmas Day, where he amplified conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and called for a member of Congress to be deported.
