Surreal is right. I really cannot comprehend how the US could even table the alleged terms for the Ukranians’ consideration.
He's just throwing shit against the wall to see if anything sticks.
I don’t believe that for a minute. War diplomacy is not a jam session to see what sticks to the wall.
Normally, no, it isn't. but we're pretty short on normal here. I don't think Trump can conceive of someone NOT wanting to make a deal.
You may be right… after all, Trump still thinks Putin is his trusted friend.
I don’t think he believes it, he just tries to sell it. With normal humans it may have value, but Putin is not by any means a normal human.
While he’s trying to sell it (or something to whom, no one knows for certain), Putin is slowly drowning him in a spoonful of water.
Indeed. Why should he quit? He still has at least a tenuous hold on Russia and in a war of attrition he will probably win. Not a bad approach if you don't care how many Russians you lose.
With Putin, it is never about the mass expenditure of human capital. In fact I am sure he adheres religiously to Stalin’s alleged quote:
"A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.”
Those who forget history....
