    For context, as a writer at The Atlantic described it:

    The negotiators displayed mainly incompetence, as well as cringeworthy servility to their master in the White House. Trump’s part, though, was pure malignity. Shortly after the meeting ended, he criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, lied about the latter’s polling numbers, and said, in a particularly callous remark, that Ukraine had had a seat at the table for three years. How being invaded and having your civilians tortured, raped, and slaughtered counts as a seat at the table is beyond understanding.

      It’s not beyond understanding. It’s corruption and treason. Putin is now POTUS when it comes to Ukraine, and NATO apparently

          Putin stand behind the man that stands in front of the president of the USA. Elon first, then Putin, then Dump.

          What a democracy, the jewel of the free (market) world.

              Jesters are the ones that tell the truth to the king without fear of execution. Trump couldn’t be a jester if he tried. He can’t joke or jape, he has nothing but hate in his heart.

              Edit: I forgot to add that he is pathologically unable to actually tell the truth, the most important part of the jesters job.
