Now we are seeing Trump being cornered with his boasting about settling the Ukraine War within 24 hours of him taking office. Today is his fourth day in office and Trump is having to crack his head to wriggle his way out. We know, and Trump knows that a 24-hour peace settlement is an impossibility and just a fantasy that only Trump can think of. But perhaps with his bullshitting and conman experience, having conned others to believe in his integrity after six bankruptcies, Trump still believes he has what it takes to carry out another massive con job.
Trump is not even aware what Putin wants in Ukraine and goes on to promote himself as if he is Almighty God and able to do a miracle, bringing an end to the three-year war.
Looking at Trump sitting at his table on Channel News American, with dozens of 'Executive Orders' covering his table, waiting for his signature, I would think he might be having a whale of a time signing them and gloating - 'Sign baby sign'. It is just ink and paper only, LOL.
Now it looks like Trump is cooking up another distraction to cover his earlier boast, which is trying to coerce Putin into allowing NATO troops to move closer to Moscow in Ukraine. That is precisely what Putin is against. By threatening more sanctions hoping to make Putin agree, the Russians are practically telling Trump to bring it on. What can the USA do about tariffs when Russia is not selling to the USA? Russia is already decoupled from the USA!
What other more harmful sanctions can Trump think of that have not already been used against Russia? What the USA and the West wanted to seize from Russia have already been seized. And the rest of the world have been given a valuable stark lesson in trusting the USA and the Europeans and the consequence thereof.
The USA and EU are practically scraping the bottom of the barrel to find any more meaningful sanctions left to use against Russia. They probably have now to resort to fabricating measure just like in Iraq to turn global opinion against Russia, which is no longer going to work. The rest of the world have learnt a bitter lesson - Once bitten, twice shy.

Good morning All
Earlier on when asked by their Journalist of his stopping the Urukiane War within 24 hours and yet it is still on, Dotard Donald Duck Trumph said "Oh i had delegated this to Xi when I talked to him"
What's a comedian talk show.
Joining Zelenskky to be in the Stand-alone Talk Show ah?
Trump thinks he can push a time bomb to Xi by forcing Xi to pressure Putin to end the war in Ukraine. It is not going to happen. We do not even know if Trump really said that to Xi as reported, unless we hear from Xi admitting to that delegation claim and what was his response. Trump can just invent or pluck narratives from the air that he will distance himself from later on, under scrutiny. Why does Putin want to end the war when Russia is on the upper hand? Trump wants to control half of Ukraine and Putin is not going to play into the hands of Trump.
The whole agenda of Trump pushing the ball to Xi is trying to split the good relations between Putin and Xi. Putin does not want any interference against his agenda and Xi knows that perfectly well. The two of them are on the same wavelength, despite all the attempts to throw spanners into their relationship. This has already been clearly shown by China during the early stage of the war, despite the pressure from the USA and the West trying to force China to take a stand against Russia, which China resisted.
China is benefitting much from the Ukraine War itself to say it discreetly, although it is an open secret. Most obvious of which is the cheap energy from Russia, which is fueling its manufacturing sector with cheap energy to produce even cheaper EVs and other consumer products. Why should China be the one to kill the goose that is laying the golden eggs? After all it is part of China's mission in the de-dollarization campaign and playing an important role in that game.
China is not going to sabotage its golden century after its century of humiliation. China is going to take full advantage of all the benefits that it can accrue.
Conman Trump still thinks he is going to con Kim Jong Un into de-nuclearizing. I can safely say that this is an exercise in futility.
North Korea's nuclear possession is the result of three generations of the Kim family's sacrifice and the sacrifice of the North Korean people. The decades of sanctions have stifled North Korea's economy and isolated the country.
Do not say that North Korea has no friends though. There is Russia, China and a host of countries in Africa that can still remember its help in their anti-colonial fight. And Kim Jong Un is not going to just give it up listening and being persuaded by a conman.
Even before Trump finally sets out on his mission, Kim has already fired his shot. He is intent on upgrading North Korea's nuclear deterrent agenda. Kim cannot afford to believe in Trump, who will just have four years in the White House. What happens when the next President comes in and clears the deck, like Trump did with all the treaties with the Russians? It is a risk that Kim cannot afford to take.
Kim is perhaps interested in taking up another free and easy holiday, all paid for by others, but on the issue of de-nuclearization, that is more like a 'Red Line' that cannot be crossed. For all we know, Kim's survival may be at stake after North Korea's de-nuclearization. A regime change is not out of the question. Without a deterrent that is keeping the country relatively safe, the stakes are too high to gamble with. Japan and South Korea are thorns in the side of North Korea and may want to pull the plug as proxies for the USA to control North Korea and have a border closer to Russia and China from which the USA can do its nonsense.
Same time also as a Buffer and kept the Foolish Whites busy with their Wars in Europe and the M.E.
China less interference and they can kept their Agenda of further development and the BRICs programmes.
This time Kim would go to his paid holidays either by train or bu ship.
Too dangerous to fly.
Americunt Black Hawk shall collide with the plane.
Or alternatively they shall push the Down button to down the plane.
