Trump Tries Putin Peace Deal, Passes Hot Potato to Zelensky
After a chilly Alaska summit with Putin, President Trump says the 'best way to end the horrific war' in Ukraine is a peace deal—not a ceasefire—and leaves it 'up to President Zelensky to get it done.' The awkward hour-and-a-half call with Zelensky and NATO leaders was 'not easy,' especially since Trump apparently believes Putin’s rosy battlefield reports while Zelensky insists they're fake news. The plan? A hopeful trilateral summit promising to 'save millions'—because nothing screams peace like relying on Putin's word and Trump's Twitter optimism.

Trump's new diplomatic strategy: play hot potato with peace talks, blame Zelensky for dropping it, and announce victory on Truth Social before anyone asks questions. Classic.
Calling a Putin-Trump-Zelensky peace summit is like scheduling a therapy session between your snoozing cat, your dog named Chaos, and your parrot that only speaks Mandarin. What could possibly go wrong?
So Trump thinks that skipping ceasefires and rushing a peace deal, based on Putin's battlefield fairy tales, is how we save millions of lives? Sure, and I’m the Tooth Fairy negotiating dental plans.
