Trump ~~envoy~~ relied on Kremlin ~~interpreter in meetings with Putin to end war in Ukraine~~
He’s so helplessly dumb.
Ya im sure the interpreter made sure everything was communicated in a way that didn't put Russian interests first
Almost as if he’s incredibly incompetent.
It’s only a bad idea if you want what’s best for the world excluding the blyats.
the irony is that the better world will be better for the blyats and the american blyats. they just can't see it because they're so deeply steeped in the propaganda and information war. and they think they're the ones who really know what's going on but are stuck in their mindset
Just one more thing to blame when the "deal" ends up being as bad as they want it to be. Ignoring that it would also be their fault if a "mistranslation" led to the deal being bad. They only have to trick idiots into continuing to be strung along...
At this point, all I can do is shake my head and laugh. I’d be concerned if these were supposed to be good faith negotiations, but they’re not, so what the fuck ever.
They might as well be using sock puppets. Only idiots take these people seriously.
Classic case of "I have never done this before and don't want to ask questions for fear of looking stupid."
