Trump Plays Risk With Ukraine, No Rulebook in Sight
In a plot twist more confusing than your last group chat, senior officials from the U.S., Ukraine, and several European countries are scrambling to coordinate before President Trump meets Putin. The catch? Trump might say yes to Putin's land-for-peace deal without giving anyone a heads-up—because why consult allies when you can wing it? As Zelensky’s chief of staff put it: 'We are ready to work as productively as possible to save lives and stop the fighting,' but apparently the script keeps changing mid-scene. Trump bragged he'll announce details soon, promising 'some swapping of territories to the betterment of both countries'—aka imagine a geopolitical game of Monopoly where Ukraine needs a referendum just to trade Baltic Avenue for Park Place.

When your diplomatic strategy is basically “Hope Putin plays fair” and everyone else just stands there like this is a group project but no one’s done homework. Spoiler: no one’s working productively except for memes.
Trust Trump to turn world peace talks into the worst episode of 'Game of Thrones'—minus the dragons, but with all the plot twists and zero good endings.
This meeting sounds like a Tinder date gone international: 'I have a proposal… but I might ghost half the group chat after.'
