Um, they are fighting for their country against an imperialist that is trying to steal their country.
Nope. They aren't. Kremlin talking points.
Stick to what you understand, Trump. You are out of your depth.

I wonder who could have planted this complaint in the Failed Businessman head?

Look at main photo: there is Andriy Yermak lurking in the background yet again. He pops up in almost every photo that features that guy next to Trump.
That looks to be his COS who he calls the "ice maiden" in the background.
Suspect Trump knows the facts: Kyiv regime has lost the war and they are sinking fast. Russian forces have the initiative and aren't going to just stop now because Zelensky thinks they should.
Best way forward is to cut the former loose, stay out of the bear pen, pass the can to the EU and blame it on them.

Yes, when you talk about the plan, it is a worthless plan. The secret is to realize it was worthless to begin with.

And if Trump thinks that will get him on Mount Rushmore, he should do that.

Reasonable to suspect Trump and his team, especially Musk, those closest to him understand a crucial fact: Kyiv regime is the most ungrateful welfare-recipient in the history of undeserved handouts.
They've been giving many hints this is how they see it, in many ways, and indicators they will, at the very least, take a different direction approach to Biden. The degree is yet to be seen but there are some fair signals out there.

Like all the taxpayer money given to this conflict.
Oh, I’m sure he will.

Trump will expect Ukraine to surrender unconditionally to Putin.

Most of the money goes to the US weapons manufacturers.

Maybe something similar to that.
Since February 2022, the United States has allocated over $113 billion in U.S. taxpayer aid to Ukraine. This includes approximately $62 billion for military and security assistance, $23 billion for economic and humanitarian support.
Anyway, this is coming to an end thankfully.

And yet Trump says nothing to Putin when Russia drops bombs deep inside of Ukraine on its schools, shopping centers, apartment buildings, etc.

We don't know whether that is the plan he will select to secure his legacy. In any event, he would be holding the bag for pretty long after such an announcement wondering why his feet stamping isn't doing anything.

Objectively dead enemies is not worthless.

And all of them subject to revision because these are unscrupulous people coming into the White House.

Trump will expect Ukraine to surrender unconditionally to Putin.
He can teach them how.

My money, I want to dictate where it goes and I don't want it to go overseas to help Ukraine, but now my dreams are coming true.

Ukraine people are fighting for survival, under a cloud of threats of nuclear antihalation.
Donald Trump would be well advised reckless isolationism will embolden despot tyrants Putin to restore the old Soviet regime, Xi Jinping to invade Taiwan and secure essential global shipping routes.
Little doubt UK, France, Germany to failure supply long range missiles promptly and authorize their use is an act of betrayal, a cowardly appeasement.

Annihilation.....sigh spelling practice.
