Steve Witkoff is teaching a master class to Russian officials on how to get what they want from Donald Trump.
On Oct. 14, Trump’s special envoy advised Vladimir Putin’s top foreign policy aide, Yuri Ushakov, on how the Russian dictator should curry favor with Trump before broaching a proposed peace plan between Russia and war-torn Ukraine, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday.
During the five-minute call, Witkoff told Putin’s henchman that the Russian president should personally phone Trump, 79, ahead of his planned meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky—where Zelensky hoped, but ultimately failed, to secure long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles—to congratulate him on the Gaza ceasefire.
We got him!
This proves Trump is guilty!
He has to resign in disgrace!

This shit isn’t even news anymore (no offense to OP). But every new piece of evidence of Trump’s hatred for everything except himself feels like I’m being told “Breaking new evidence that 1+1=2, who would’ve thought!”
Lemmy would benefit greatly from flairs. Anything that is posted by the daily beast would have a “lopsided obviously biased to the point of not being worth posted where it matters” tag
I think that there’s a lot of evidence that Trump is a Russian asset. I think people will look back and really be disappointed in this generation for doing nothing about this https://www.acslaw.org/projects/the-presidential-investigation-education-project/other-resources/key-findings-of-the-mueller-report/
I’m less convinced honestly. This tells me that Trump is nothing but a very controllable puppet, who is surrounded by russian assets. He’ll agree with any charismatic or powerful person he meets, because he can’t think for himself. So the russian assets around him will prepare him in advance to make sure he’s full of russian propaganda before he has to make any decision.
Once in a while they fail to get to him, the few times he does something against russian interests
I’m convinced he’s nothing but a puppet at this point because of mental decline. He wasn’t always though, and it doesn’t excuse him. He has always been absolute garbage and waste of oxygen.
… so he is an asset?

That’s right, he was in bed with the Russians all the way back in the '80s, when he was merely an idiot (as opposed to senile).
So you are convinced. Did you really just take the expeditious route to agreeing?
I totally believe there’s something there. Too many red flags - like not bringing interpreters on talks w/ putin. and keeping nuclear secrets in the guest bathroom at mar a lago.

yeah, I mean… as much as we do today. like, you know this isn’t the first time foreign collusion has delivered a republican to the white house? nixon did it. LBJ literally called it treason.
Then reagan did it 20 years later with iran. then sent them weapons for the f14s purchased by the Shah.
we know these things are true, but some people either don’t care about history or care more about hurting brown people and taking women’s rights.
and keeping nuclear secrets in the guest bathroom at mar a lago.
Do you mean provably selling top secret documents to the Saudis who then shared the information with Russia?
would not be surprised one bit.

Now line this up with the week that trump was first accused of keeping TS material at maralago
When you’re done with those, ask me why they’re suddenly implementing global policy together.
I don’t need to ask, I know the answer already: money.
about a decade ago the fossil fuel interests of this planet decided their profits were worth more than the rest of humanity surviving and they went all in. it dates back to 50 years ago when their own scientists warned them, and the world about the possibilities.
money is the driver.
Gimme a sec
no rush, I doubt there will be surprises
Lol you were right, only step left in their big plan is for us to either get violent or initiate the big sad :(
action works. but we don’t talk about that on lemmy.
This is just confirming that Trump is just swayed by the last person he talked to. Stevey boy here just reminding the Russians to get on the line with Trump so he’s on their side before Zelensky meets Trump.
And nothing will be done about him.
