TRUMP: Mary is no friend of Alaska. PELTOLA: I can’t help but take it as high praise and such a compliment that there’s such concern over this race and I’m such a threat that the vice president came last week and now the president is here.

Trump dislikes Zelenskyy because his characteristics are opposite to his own. Zelenskyy is respected throughout the world but Trump is respected nowhere. Not in Russia or China where they play him as the fool that he is. Zelenskyy will survive with his reputation intact long after Trump has gone

Trump hasn't an ounce of compassion in his 300 pound body, so I won't decry his refusal to help Ukraine, not for that reason, anyway. However, I can't fathom how Trump is unable to realize that this man is a hero. Throwing his weight behind Putin alienates Americans & world leaders. Trump is a fool.

Elon Musk is despicable. Because he is a crazy white supremacist, he killed hundreds of thousands of people in Africa by having his DOGE teens cut aid for food and medicine. And because he is a crazy authoritarian, he has now killed Ukrainians by hindering their ability to anticipate air strikes.
