There is rumor of a Trump "peace plan" which does little more that guarantee that Russia will continue to eliminate the last of Ukrainian resistance.
At this point it's hard to tell if Trumps is worse for Epstein victims or young Ukranian men.
In the first term, I naively believed that Republican politicians prevented Trump from rolling back the Progressive Jihad on America. At the start of the second term, after surviving the Butler "assassination attempt" I thought he was going to drain the swamp this time. I've come to the conclusion that Trump is a really good Kabuki Theater actor, pretending to be standing up for Americans and fighting to drain the swamp. He is the Swamp. He could end this in a day, but he keeps pretending to be flailing

"High Noon In Kiev
The ‘new’ Trump plan to end the war in Ukraine, mentioned here yesterday, is unlikely to come to fruition.
Russia has said that it does not have any official knowledge of the plan or its content. But there are several reasons for it to reject it.
The Telegraph claims that the plan does not acknowledge that the Donbas and Luhansk are part of Russia but only allows for Russia to ‘lease’ the territory:
The Trump administration deal would see Kyiv cede control of the eastern Donbas region, but maintain legal ownership. Russia would pay an undisclosed rental fee for de facto control of the region, officials familiar with the deal told The Telegraph.
There is also the role of NATO which the Trump administration’s plan does not mention:
As European and U.S. officials alike sought clarity, they said many aspects of the plan remained in flux, including the role of NATO and any Ukrainian territorial concessions to Russia.
…
One aspect U.S. officials are still pondering is whether and how to mention NATO, the person said. The discussion of NATO has not been previously reported.
Ukraine has sought NATO membership as a security guarantee against a future Russian invasion. While some European countries support that, the U.S. has rejected it and Moscow has long demanded Kyiv not join the defensive alliance, viewing that as a threat. The European allies also worry about granting Russia territorial concessions, which they see as rewarding Moscow’s aggression and setting a concerning precedent."

. It’s worth remembering how Ronald Reagan took down the Bolshevik empire – without firing a shot. His secret weapon? Oil. As Michael Reagan said, “He did it without firing a shot… but he had a super weapon — oil.”
