Do we think this was the classic, "create a crisis and solve it" strategy, or are we about to find out later what unreasonable demand Ukraine had to cave to for survival?
Based on what we know about Trump, there's no plan, never has been a plan, no actual negotiations have taken place, and narrative is post hoc. Trump's brain, a bowl of half-melted ice cream (Neapolitan), just recently picked up on the fact that Putin doesn't really respect him. Like, at all. Ego, he sends weapons to Ukraine.
Us Americans got gypped on Neopoloitan ice cream. It's supposed to be chocolate, vanilla, pistachio. Those three mix much better than chocolate, vanilla, strawberry.
