Trump finally elaborates on his Ukraine position. He says he'll get the European countries to match what the US is sending to Ukraine.
He also once again brags that he increased funding to NATO.
Trump also says he's the only candidate who will prevent World War III.
@AloofDelegateDemocrat4mos4MO
The POTUS can't unilaterally leave NATO so you can stop screeching about that nothingburger any day now.
@ThirdPartyRalphRepublican4mos4MO
Trump has repeatedly said he would get a peace deal done in his first 24 hours.
@AloofDelegateDemocrat4mos4MO
That's not possible. Even if the entire political establishment in US/EU somehow gets on board (itself an impossibility), there won't be a peace deal due to Ukraine/Russia priorities and interests.
@ThirdPartyRalphRepublican4mos4MO
“ there won't be a peace deal due to Ukraine/Russia priorities and interests.” Ukraine is running out of soldiers. They are using middle aged men. They will have to negotiate soon
@AloofDelegateDemocrat4mos4MO
Not yet. They just passed the law that denies passport services at embassy without military registration. Which means military age men hiding abroad will have their visas invalidated.
They will fight to the last Ukrainian, and Russia is fine with it. So 2 more years or so.
@R3publicanWalrusGreen4mos4MO
That approach would also be consistent with what he did in power (arming Ukraine, expanding NATO, pressuring EU to increase military spending) but you won't see the factual version of Trump discussed much among either his opponents or supporters. They prefer the fantasy version
@Diplom4cyBillyConstitution4mos4MO
No Trump said NATO should pay, while pointing out how it's not equal and the U.S. always pays more for everything.
Trump said he would negotiate to end the war quickly.
Trump sounds like he wants to get out of NATO too.
@AnteaterGenesisSocialist4mos4MO
So..Trump just wants the EU to contribute more to continue a fruitless war of depopulation to reclaim the east?
