“Your kids should get less for Christmas than kids have in a communist China.”
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

No surprise when those who've seen the russian war only through "Insta stories" believe talks can stop the killing.
But rejecting Ukraine's right to self-defense and weapons supplies after spending a night in a shelter, seeing the ruins, or talking to victims is a moral collapse.
