Trump: I would settle the war in 24 hours. I want everybody to stop dying

[Woody]

W answers by Trump:

Kaitlan: "Who do you want to win, Ukraine or Russia?" (Like it's a sporting event)

"I don't think in terms of winning and losing. I think in terms of getting it settled so we stop killing these people"
"I want everybody to stop dying, Russians and Ukrainians"

Political nerds and Twitter users might not be so engaged. But your average normie would look at this and agree with these statements.

[Old Man Willow]

Shame Trump did not show this same empathy to the Yemenis while he was President.

[Benjamin Frank]

Trite and mawkish sentiment. Kumbaya.

[Crumpets]

If wars could be settled by anyone in 24 hours, there wouldn't be wars.

[MasterJedi]

Yes, we know he would heel to Putin and probably threaten to attack Ukraine on his bosses orders too.  Disgusting how Republicans went from hating Russia to being simps.

I still don't understand why anyone ever liked this clown.

[Sir Mohamed]

Just 24 hours? Lame. He wanted to solve the Cold War in the late 1980s in just one hour.

[Podgy the Bear]

No different from a prosperity gospel preacher: Give me your vote (money), and I'll make it all wonderful for you.

Trump is one of Putin's best investments.

He makes us feel good.

Listen to the crowd celebrating when he says that.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Last night was just another re-run of Trump's Greatest Hits. The only way he ends the war in 24 hours is to cede Ukraine to Putin, which he probably would do.

[Stranger in a strange land]

This isn't empathy. He wants to cut Russia's losses, get Ukraine to give up, and grant Russia some sort of "victory" even if just a phyrric one. Trump has never once shown empathy to anyone outside of his immediate family.

Everybody wants people to stop dying.

Promising that you could actually achieve that is of course a very easy thing to say on TV when your return to the presidency is still two years away, if ever.

It is apparently also an easy thing to swallow for Trump supporters, considering that (as usual) he didn't provide any specifics as to how he intends to end the conflict in such a ridicilously short time span, in particular after Biden, Naftali Bennett, Erdogan, Macron, Scholz, Lula already tried and failed.

He’s going to cut off aid and then threaten Zelensky with aiding Putin if Ukraine doesn’t give up territory

"I don't think in terms of winning and losing."

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA literally spit out my coffee.

I suppose that would go over well with Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, Sweden and presumably - as far as more Western allies are concerned - at least the UK.

Trump wouldn’t care about that beyond maybe Poland

Probably, which is why the hopes would lie on the likes of Pence, Pompeo, or McConnell who recognize that keeping NATO intact somehow is indeed a foreign policy priority.

Fat people like to see themselves represented in politics and media. It's that simple.

 If Trump makes you feel good you need to take a good long look in the mirror.

Russia is never going to attack NATO, and you know it.
