It might be crazy but considering it's the maggots that are trying to block aid, it might work.
Inviting Trump makes me lose respect for Zelenskiy
From the article:
"If he can come here, I will need ... 24 minutes to explain to President Trump that he can't manage this war," Zelenskiy said. "He can’t bring peace because of Putin."
Sounds like he's saying it's out of Trump's depth
That might be the case, but I think Trump supporters will see the invitation as international recognition.
Article was definitely written to appear that way. I remembered a different article that had this Zelensky comment as the headline, but they do technically call it out in their article. A lot of people only read the headline after all. ಠ_ಠ
Uh the fuck?
Ignoring every reason that Trump is an idiot d****** and impotent, inviting the former president is an illogical way to persuade the current president to offer more aid, and will probably disincline Biden to help him.
When the US is already offering aid almost weekly.
Seems like a bad move
He's just trolling him.
Unlikely, that would be ineffective.
"Hey, look, I invited the loser to make you...jealous"?
Of what, Biden already has so much greater acclaim and has achieved so much more than baby hands, how is that a troll?
I think Zippit means Zelenskiy is just trolling Trump, not Biden.
Oh thank you, that makes way more sense.
Yes, sorry I didn't make it clearer.
No sweat, I was basically falling asleep and stream of consciousness answered, I'm sure the misunderstanding was mine.
