He may be trying to shut the war down, hoping that the recent events in Iran have given Putin pause. If so I think he’s wrong.

Ya think? I am more than certain Trump is dead wrong. Just last week in the wake of the US strike on Iran, Putin stated:
On June 20, at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, he said just that: “I have said many times that I consider the Russian and Ukrainian peoples to be one people. In this sense, all of Ukraine is ours.” He went on to add: “We have an old rule. Wherever a Russian soldier sets foot is ours.”

It’s called The Art of the Sell Out and Putin is the dealer.

Easy.
They go with "whatever Trump says."Say, anyone seen @Jolly lately? He used to have interesting interpretations for what ever Trump says.

AJ and CO are both punditry entrepreneurs (or grifters, if you prefer) who have no problem differing with whatever Trump is saying that week.

But compared to these people, Trump is a rational, fact-based persona. They are completely off the charts.

It's not difficult to see AJ's and CO's trajectories as audience capture, selling fun conspiracy wackiness to the fringy people who want to buy it. From there it is human, if weak, to believe one's own BS to some extent. These lines of "true belief" are always murky.
