Not just you, buddy. Not just you..
the rest of the world outside of the mindless maga cult understands how stupid and incompetent trump is..putin included.
Not stupid, ruthless. He wants the oil prices down, but can't via Iran, so he wants to give free reign to Russia. He doesn't care about Ukraine, he cares about midterms.
It is stupid. The whole Iran conflict is stupid and there's no way to undo it. There's no winning it either without a major resource investment. Buying essentially less than a days worth of diesel from Russia, whom is importing it from Iran is beyond stupid. Nothing he does is ruthless or calculating, its dumb.
Oil prices are not coming down by midterms regardless of what he does. Even if the Iran conflict was resolved tomorrow, oil companies still have to pay back the government via resuppling the strategic oil reserves. So, prices will remain high.
If he cared at all about any elections he wouldn't have done 90% of the things he has. Its one fuck up after another followed by quagmires of bullshit.
there's no way to undo it.
Well, not without groveling to Iran & admitting to fault in starting the conflict in the first place, which are both things that Trump will never, ever do no matter what.
I mean were we betrayed if we all knew he was going to fuck everyone else over anyways?
Yes because of the cruelty in which they (Trump and Elon) have handled this. Not informing Ukraine of incoming missiles has caused the deaths of several and power outages for hundreds of thousands. Deranged levels of evil.
Buddy, for these people, the cruelty is the fucking point
You have to trust someone in order to feel betrayed.
And fbi director patel is in russia plotting more treason.
Is now reported in Virginia, per FBI and ABC affiliate video

He truly went through with the visit? Country of traitors.
We all have our responsibility in the coming weeks to make some changes. I'll be doing my part
I genuinely believe he's the delivery boy and handing all intel the US has on Ukraine's military to Putin directly.
Life long American
I feel betrayed too
do something about it
lifelong canadian
don't make me come over and do it for you
You wont and he wont. Reddit is a bunch of talk.
Are you kidding? Canada is one of the few Countries that has been standing up to it. Canadians are boycotting products on their own without the government telling people to. Our government has a historical high approval from standing up to their shit. Don’t lump us in with Americans just rolling over and letting it happen. “I voted and showed up to 2 protests on a Saturday 6 months apart. What more do you want from me?”. We are not the same.
The irony of people on Reddit telling other people on Reddit to do something will never not be funny to me
Canadians have already boycotted the US and caused immense localized economic pain, particularly for places that voted for Trump. Canadians are doing their part.
Americans are doing their part too. I vote in every election. You should too. Everyone should.
We’ll see in November whether the American people decide to “do something about it”.
Because it is a betrayal.
Have we considered some of the French options?
Same. It’s a sickening feeling.
Not that it is Zelenskyy’s fault as he has no choice but to deal with the US but yes, Trump eventually betrays everyone.
Except for Russia
Look, every us official traveling to Russia is instructed to never open hotel doors at night when those sexy underaged KGB officers are knocking on your door.
Everyone who has at least two brain cells is following these directions for obvious reasons.
We all know though that Trump was never the brightest, so he just doesn't like the idea of all that underage porn to be leaked to the public.
It's as easy as it gets.
Did Putin even say Thank You?
Trump effusively thanked Putin for letting us help him.
Was Putin wearing a suit?!
Hopefully this feeling of betrayal extends to the rest of our historically traditional allies as well -- and that their officials grow some balls and both voice their opinions and start dialogues about how to bypass the United States in trade and other cooperative efforts.
If the entirety of the US is made to suffer due to this guy, and the international voice is strong and united about how f-upped all of this is - and who EXACTLY, by name is to blame, it will eventually break through the firewalls the thicker skulled individuals in this country have surrounded themselves with.
But they need to be made to suffer. As all of us do...so that we have no other choice but to repudiate him.
Saudi-Arabia is now looking towards Pakistan and Turkey for their security concerns. This is kind of unbelievable how badly Trump dropped the ball.
Yeah this is what people don't get about Iran. Iran couldn't hit the US but it sure as shit could hit US allies and then when you don't protect your allies and cause their hardship do you want to remain allies with them
He's just completely inept at leadership. The only thing he's good at is inserting himself into everything.
They have. Do you not notice the mass arming on the eastern fronts. Europe is preparing for war. Ukraine has been kicking Russias ass all summer. Trump took yhe deal because Russia cant refine their crude and its pennies on the dollar
Genuinely asking, are there no protests going on in America right now about the state of your country? I am seeing article after article of how Trump is doing this and that but it seems like the citizens are just apathetic to it now?
they had bigger protests when George Floyd died lol
americans just dont care enough
I create this user name 9 fucking years ago...
Anyone paying attention knew this was coming and there's nothing we can do because half the country is dumb as fuck.
The biggest reason came from Trump’s former chief strategist when he said:
“The Democrats don't matter. The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with shit.”
That strategy wasn't really to persuade the public, but to overwhelm the media and political opposition with so much information, controversy, and chaos that they couldn't effectively respond.
And it’s been brilliantly effective. By the time people organize an ICE protest, Trump has moved on to abducting Venezuela’s president, bombing Iran, or some new outrage. All while massively enriching himself. It’s Bannon’s “flood the zone with shit” strategy in action. How do you sustain public outrage when nobody can even keep track of what we’re supposed to be protesting?
Nationwide "No Kings" protests about every six months. Trump uses a tidal wave approach to his crimes. His crimes come daily and that's hard to protest one-for-one. Also, protests don't seem to affect his voter base of fools, cowards, and cronies, and they are the root cause of this phenomenon. The only people who absorb the message of a protest are people who already believe the message.
Theres flaws in our system that have been exposed, everyone is hoping the midterms will turn the tide. Right now the people can stop him are mostly on his side.
People are wary of doing anything say on the level of a french protest because he's mused about martial law and using the insurrection act. It's a "don't give them a reason" type rule thats been in place for protests so far. There's genuine concern about martial law and cancelled elections.
The US has joined the dark side. That’s bad news for Ukraine in particular and the rest of the free world in general.
Please, American voters; restrict this man’s powers as fast and as much as you can. I don’t think the world will survive two more years like this.
I mean, Trump has been consistently betraying him since the election.
Indeed. It is almost like the USA is a Russian ally.
Trump betrays everyone.
I mean every dollar Trump gives to Putin goes directly to the russian side of the battlefield. I don’t think it’s a secret anymore that Trump wants Russia to continue its war against Ukraine and further European countries afterwards. Destabilizing Europe and USA‘s closest allies has been of high priority on Trump‘s agenda so far.
Its basically Trump desperate from the elections trying to offload the blame on others. While at it, put some of the blame of the high gas prices on Zelensky.
The people who really eat this up and the face they put on speaking about this with a straight face. I swear....
Trump has done this all his life. Ukraine is just the latest in a long string of betrayals. Keep going after the Russian bots 🤖
Like I said before… Ukraine should of restart its nuclear program few years back
Why does everyone trust Trump? Like, look at his track record. He’s a grifting piece of shit.
That means Ukraine no longer needs to honor any agreement with the US when it comes to restrictions. A country with nothing to lose is most dangerous
