      This was the first thing that came to mind. Then I thought, Ukraine is going to get blamed anyway, I hope they can keep that boat from making the trip one way or another

    Send Western Union additional $10M for transfer fee. Then go buy $50M in Apple Gift cards and send them numbers to my tech support guy Sanjay. The oil is coming soon.

        Hey, no shame in trying to unterstand your enemy. Since it’s been written by a ghostwriter it might even contain coherent sentences.

          Yea, I’ve read Mein Kampf (not in public though) to see what I was missing.

          Spoiler

          I didn’t miss anything, he’s an incoherent megalomaniac idiot.

    Its like trying to fart on queue amidst a blizzard. When it eventually makes it’s way out, it’ll be unnoticed.

    Absolutely no one on Earth could have predicted this outcome. We’re all truly shocked and appalled.

    Part of the deal is Ukraine stopping attacks on Russian oil targets. So obviously Trump hasn’t done his part of the deal, but when does he?

      What is this elusive deal that sees Ukraine stopping its attacks on oil infrastructure that you are talking about?

        It’s the one where Trump announced that Russia and Ukraine had agreed a ceasefire on each other’s energy infrastructure. A ceasefire that Russia and Ukraine both immediately denied existed or was in effect. When a reporter asked Trump about the energy-infrastructure ceasefire and where/how it had been negotiated, he literally said something to the effect of, “It exists because I said it exists, I just declared it.”
