Sure it's grotesque to see Trump lying and gaslighting about Russia-Ukraine. But it's far more disgusting to see all the other politicians and journalists who KNOW he's lying say "oh that's just Trump being Trump" - sweeping it under the rug, as if truth doesn't matter at all.
The political leaders of Europe are every bit as guilty as Caligula Trump. It is 11 years since Russia invaded Ukraine and we've now had 3 years of full-scale war, and these fucking people are STILL dragging their feet about defense.
They have had plenty of time to do something, but they kicked the can down the road, waiting for someone else to come in... and now that "someone" has come in, but instead of negotiating an end to the war he is trying to plunder what's left of Ukraine, acting like a grave robber... But that is on Biden and the European leaders for not doing anything but "wait and see" for three whole years.

Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” For example, WhatsApp restricted the number of times a user could forward something, and developed automated systems that detect and flag objectionable content. "We're seeing really dramatic moves, and it's all really tied to Ukraine right now, and in a secondary way, in terms of interest rates," Octavio Marenzi, CEO of Opimas, told Yahoo Finance Live on Thursday. "This war in Ukraine is going to give the Fed the ammunition, the cover that it needs, to not raise interest rates too quickly. And I think Jay Powell is a very tepid sort of inflation fighter and he's not going to do as much as he needs to do to get that under control. And this seems like an excuse to kick the can further down the road still and not do too much too soon." Andrey, a Russian entrepreneur living in Brazil who, fearing retaliation, asked that NPR not use his last name, said Telegram has become one of the few places Russians can access independent news about the war.
