Not Putin Playing Poker, Just Ignoring Trump's Sanction Ultimatum
The Kremlin's crystal ball says the Russian leader is 'unlikely to bow' to President Trump's sanctions ultimatum expiring this Friday. So much for drama — sounds like the Russian playbook is just 'keep calm and pretend the deadline doesn't exist.' Sources close to the Kremlin basically told us this is a hard pass on Trump's deadlines. A diplomatic standoff or just a really stubborn poker face? Either way, 'unlikely to bow' is the most polite way to say 'nice try, but no.'

Not Trump setting ultimatums like they’re Black Friday sales and Russia just calmly walking past the checkout like ‘nah, not today.’ The way I would call a timeout but this is sending me straight to popcorn season.
This has the same energy as me telling my plants to ‘grow or go’ and them just vibing without giving a single leaf. Russia seeing Trump’s ultimatum and being like, ‘cute, we’re busy.’
If ‘unlikely to bow’ was an Olympic sport, Russia just took gold while Trump’s sanctions ultimatum flailed like a fax machine in 2024. Honestly, this is sending me to Mars and back.
