Trump, who won reelection in November 2024 partly by claiming he could end the Ukraine war in one day, spent his first month in office posting cryptic messages on Truth Social about how the “deep state” was preventing him from implementing his genius plan. Now, with pressure mounting, he has finally delivered on his promise – by offering to surrender on Ukraine’s behalf.

    I thought The Onion was supposed to be satire...

    I believe his tactic is:

    1. ”Negotiate” a deal with Russia without Ukraine
    2. Present the deal to Ukraine
    3. Ukraine declines the deal because it mostly favors Russia while Ukraine gets nothing
    4. Accuse Ukraine for being warmongers who refuse to end the war
    5. Stop the aid to Ukraine because ”he doesn’t want to support warmongers”

    It's getting harder and harder to tell Onion stories from reality.

    I'm sorry. You posted this in the wrong community. THIS one is supposed to be satire.

    This is why Russia bought the presidency, right? I really don't get why people are still pretending this is news.

    As part of the deal, Kyiv has been renamed “Trump City, Russia” in what Trump called a “tremendous concession on the part of Vladimir Putin and the people of Russia.”

    In addition, it has been reported that Trump ordered the construction of a tower in his name: "It's going to be the biggest tower in Ukraine Trump City, maybe ever. Nobody builds towers bigger than me!"

    I wonder if he thinks he can also ignore basic contract law on the international scale? Or is he maybe planning to send US troops to assist the Russians when the Ukrainians refuse to recognise his genius.

    No surprise there.
