Ukraine Has Finally Given Up on Trump

[C_Clayton_Jones]

“For more than a year after Donald Trump returned to the White House, Ukraine held out hope—at least publicly—of winning him over. Trump, who revealed his affection for Russia’s Vladimir Putin again and again, largely halted American military aid to Kyiv. He insulted Ukrainian leaders regularly, personally berating President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office in February 2025. Nevertheless, Ukraine diligently took part in Trump’s peace negotiations, which were tilted to reward Putin’s invasion and turned out to be fruitless. Zelensky agreed to mineral deals that supposedly promised to enrich Americans. He even lavishly praised Trump himself. Despite Ukrainian leaders’ growing doubts, they calculated that speaking sweetly of the American president would do no harm and just might gain his favor.

But now Kyiv appears to have given up on the United States.”

Ukraine Has Finally Given Up on Trump

Zelensky has written off the United States.

This is yet another Trump foreign policy failure, yet another democratic ally Trump has abandoned to embrace the fascist despot Putin, and yet another example of the Trump regime’s incompetence and corruption.

Zelensky now knows Trump is an ally of Putin, that like Putin Trump believes that might makes right, and that Trump will do nothing to assist Ukraine in its fight against the war criminal Putin.

If you had any common sense, we’d be embedded in the Ukrainian army understanding how war is going to be fought in the next century because Ukraine is writing the text book.

Instead you have to be emotional about it.

Another money pit avoided.....

In other words, Ukraine realizes that they cannot buy Trump the way they bought Biden.

How do you figure? Ukraine is only able to wage war because of the support America has given them.

And they have stopped Russia COLD.

And they have stopped Russia COLD.

…yes, but only because of our support. So saying we should pay attention to Ukraine because they are writing the book…but they are writing it with the pen and paper provided by the USA

And Europe, and the bravery and innovation of the Ukrainian people.

They invented this second gen drone shit, and fighting it. Nothing says holy shit like them using single drones to drop hand grenades into Russian foxholes.

No. That has not been the case since June.

Trump basically ended all US support over a year ago.

Ukraine has revolutionized drone warfare.

 

[yidnar]

No. That has not been the case since June.

As of April 2026, the
U.S.
continues to provide weapons for Ukraine’s defense, though the method of delivery has shifted from direct donations to a "sell-to-allies" model.

No. They literally don't.
