Trump should wash his hand and pull a Pilate here. Slowly unwind the free dollars and let Europe pick up the slack if they’re so committed to the war. Of course they’re unlikely to be able to fill that gap and will probably be pissed that the US which was the architect of the mess is trying to make them hold the poop bag. Oh well, next time have the foresight and literally look at Iraq, Afghanistan and the other wars we left incomplete as a premonition of what’s to happen.

I honestly can’t wait for the Germans to be given this. At this point, after blowing up their pipelines, after flooding them with refugees thanks to our Libya and Syria/afghanistan/iraq actions, we might as well hang this on them too. In another 10 years Americans will probably be able to go to Germany and demand prima nocta and German politicians will convince the populace there that it’s in their interests to say yes sheepishly. They’ve mastered being cucked.


Sorry Europe, rent's due 😅

This is unfortunately what it appears Trump is doing, at least so far. Unless he wakes up one day and decides to make a big show of ending the war. Biden kept the war artificially propped up and ensured more people would die, but Trump is just disentangling us from it and letting Russia clean up the mess, and that means more people will die in the meantime. But yeah the EU has been on the receiving end of all these geopolitical dustups and they just keep begging for more abuse. Putin told them to their faces he was weaponizing that meaty hose of syrian migrants to weaken the EU and they just choked it down. Its not like it was unpredictable that the ukraine war would end flooding migrants into the EU, putting more stress on the social net, giving them another beggar country bowl in hand and losing them resources and weakening alliances. I said it before the war even began. Some lessons never get learned

"This will allow you to successfully diversify away from Russia" All you gotta say.

Then Annalena Baerbock will come in to explain how it's the only way.

Welp. Fuck the peace, well just loot Ukraine as repayment for continual support. So much for expectation of a quick peace. Idk if he's being hyperbolic here but i kind of think he's serious about some level of repayment. Doesn't it take awhile and is pretty work intensive to actually mine these rare earths? What's to prevent Russia from targeting these mining operations?

BREAKING: President Trump just announced that he is demanding Ukraine to give its rare earth minerals to the United States as payment for all the aid.

"So we're looking to do a deal with Ukraine where they're going to secure what we're giving them with their rare earth and other things."

To me, this sounds more like an attempt by Trump to buy time while he tries to figure out what to actually do with this conflict, while saving face with his base in spite of keeping the war going (for now).


Regarding the Syrian refugees: that is a disaster of Europe's own making. The Americans or Russians didn't force us to open the floodgates like this. The Ukrainian refugees probably couldn't be kept out entirely, but we didn't need to give them immediate full access to our welfare system either. And we could have probably handled them just fine if our capacities, housing markets and public funds hadn't been drained by a decade of third world poverty migration under the guise of asylum laws. And even then, the Ukrainian refugees here in Germany at least have the decency to lay low and leech silently from our overly generous welfare system, instead of stabbing, raping and mowing civilians down with vehicles like the other guys...

Can anybody tell me where the majority of Ukraine's rare earth minerals are? :) Kyiv? May be Lviv?

Not sure why, but I got a good chuckle out of this.
