Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy have sat down for a face-to-face talk in the opulent halls of a Vatican basilica to discuss a possible ceasefire, after which the US president accused his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, of not wanting to “stop the war”.
The White House described Trump’s meeting with the Ukrainian leader before Pope Francis’s funeral as “very productive”, while Zelenskyy said on X that the talk with the US president was symbolic and had the “potential to become historic, if we achieve joint results”.
It was the first time that Zelenskyy and Trump had met face to face after a frosty February encounter in the White House where Trump and the US vice-president, JD Vance, berated the Ukrainian leader and accused him of ingratitude for US aid.
Something odd is happening with the right, seems like they’re trying to hedge their bets for blowback.
Trump definitely knew this all along, to say this now seems like damage control.
Then earlier this week Rogan calling out the deportations to El Salvador without a trial, saying it was an overcorrection to the left that has gone too far.
I wonder if the American people will buy it.
Its weirder than that, had someone on lemmy try to convince me that deportations, purity tests and fascism are all far left policies. Its like they’re trying to shift all their own shit onto some imaginary other.
Those are all bidens/obama polices tho
It’s a common take that the left are fascists because we …want LGBTQ+ etc to be accepted. Fucking bizarre.
Hey hey, we also want people not to starve or go into horrific debt because of medical issues. Super clear indicators of fascism or something.
