Summary
Donald Trump lashed out at media reports claiming Russian President Vladimir Putin kept his envoy, Steve Witkoff, waiting for over eight hours in a “power play.”
Sky News reported the delay, but Trump denied it on Truth Social, calling the story fake and the media “sick degenerates.” He insisted there was “no wait whatsoever” and that discussions were productive.
Trump also faced criticism for repeating Putin’s claims about Ukrainian troops being surrounded.
Witkoff left Moscow without securing a ceasefire agreement.
Putin is masterful how he enrages the right and the left but why is it that the left can see through it and MAGA thinks he’s powerful and idolizes Putin?
The thing they all have in common is a lust for power and domination. Bunch of fucking nazis.
The most telling thing about the character of a person is what they dream of when there is a boot on their neck.
Some dream of becoming powerful enough to rid the world of those who would be a boot on the necks of others.
Some merely dream of becoming powerful enough to be the boot.
And then there’s me, who would rid the world of feet.
Found the anarchist.
Standard projection: they definitely kept the envoys waiting that long
Yep he knows how embarrassing it is for his image
‘so unfair! we were gonna do that!’
That’s not projection. It’s just plain lying. Compulsive lying if you need to attach something to it.
This motherfucker is way past his expiration date.
You should have posted the entire quote:
Trump insisted, “There was no wait whatsoever to accept my unconditional surrender.”
It was simply a 100% tariff on the normal wait time of 4.5 hours.
I still cant believe this person is the US president. If I had to explain this to aliens, I guess I would say something along the lines of “the media is controlled and voting is therefore also controlled”. Also humans in USA are overworked, stressed, overweight, tired, have almost no vacations or public health care. It all contributes to not being able to think properly.
It just bewilders me and I’m fairly conservative. He’s so awful. I understand why people voted for him over the dem candidates cos they were awful. But genuinely loving him??? Can’t fathom it
I’ll bite…

expand on this?
Biden was weak and lacked charisma, a lot of people don’t like that. Kamala wasn’t inspiring and swapping her in just before election was unstable. Plus lets be honest, a chunk of people wouldnt vote for a black woman. I didn’t speak to many people that could name any of their policies.
Trump is aggressive and a bully to me, but seems strong to others. He had clear messages and gave some effective soundbites.
I think Trump is one of the worst things to happen to the world this century, but I understand the reasons people are drawn to him over the dem candidates.
reasonable critique. I would, however, say that his messages were entirely obfuscated, e.g. when placed into firm context by project 2025 he did the whole “I barely know him” BS - but, like any snake oil salesman, encouraged people to assume what they wanted to assume.
without going into the terrible history of politics, hegemony and empire in the us, harris and walz were pretty run of the mill centrist players - i.e. more of the same.
trump captured the undereducated/underinformed/otherist/accelerationist/populist rage and deftly parried those voters (and the the rest of us) into the gaping wolf maw.
I am decidedly not a conservative and thanks for the expanded explanation. much appreciated.

It’s a teamsport and we’re profoundly stupid and tribal.
I don’t think anyone should trust Trump or the UK media. The truth is probably that it was 6 or 7 hours and the envoy had a fine time earning Queen bee on Spelling Bee and then got arrogant and played Quordle and threw his phone.
Christ this dudes ego is SO delicate lmfao
Like the kid ho keeps insisting that his bully is actually his best friend.
Dark popcorn times.
Witkoff left Moscow without securing a ceasefire agreement.
But he was dusting off his knees and wiping his chin, so the meeting was productive.
Dude if Trump finds out someone else blew off Putin he’s gonna be really mad.
I love how he confirms stuff like this.
But Putin does this all the time. Like, all the time. He’s well known for it, even among people that support him. Putin’s all about these sort of bullshit power play games, that’s why he also has that comedically long table he sits at.
This makes me pretty sure that Putin kept Witkoff waiting for over 8 hours. Putin is notorious for using this as a power tactic, and generally speaking, I find that most things orangeboi denies are true.
Of course he has to say the story is fake. If the story is real, and it is, then it means Trump is very weak in dealing with Putin.
