trump will never do anything to hurt putin. trump is putin's little bit**. Always and forever. That's what all the money and epstein videos were for. Btw, Michael Wolff says that epstein took a secret trip to Russia to meet with putin.
It's not a coincidence that trump's first successful project with the Hyatt Hotel (late 70's to early 80's) involved him buying tv's from an electronics store that was a front for the kgb.
Nor is it a coincidence that after his first trip to Moscow in 1987 (arranged by the kgb according to investigative reporter Craig Unger) he started bad mouthing NATO.
Since putin came to power trump has been given hundreds of millions of dollars from russian oligarchs -including a $45 million overpayment on a property in Florida.
It is the duty of every American to fight fascism and authoritarianism.
republicons are the party of crime and espionage.
This woman is talking to them as if they’re not doing anything and if their stupid.

This aged like milk left on a patio in summer
The us and Trump yet again show their traitorous side. Russia is NOT going to be allowed to gain land by invading. If they get Donbas like the idiot in the White House wants it paves the road to the next attack because that shows Russia that attacking is worth it. Remember, Putin sees his own ppl as expendable something it looks like Trump is trying to copy. As long as it leads to what he wants any loss is okay. Psychopaths like that needs to be stopped in their tracks or a loooooooot more lives will be lost in the next world war start after Russia invade the Baltics. But the micro brain in traitor USA don’t understand this.
Witkoff routinely peddles the worst Russian lies.
Are those his real cheek bones 😮
Whatever! The peace deal in Gaza won’t have a chance to work. Hamas won’t quit killing because killing is negotiating. A real estate won’t broker a deal. They are so mistaken. They fought they had a deal until the killing started again in Gaza.
Good luck with Iran because they hate us period.
They are not equipped to make a deal let’s be realistic. This all a scam same as Putin isn’t ready to make a deal and all their other so called deals.
In the Middle East killing is negotiating! there can not be peace without killing. That’s how terrorism regime works.
This organization needs to stop congratulating themselves for deals that won’t ever see the day or last through the ages.
Trump can’t stop congratulating himself everyday he does a press conference .. so now they are all hunting for peace deals that are just mirages.
You have peace deals when you defeat the other side and the on going war can’t be negotiated. It’s called unconditional surrender. That’s how history has always shown us the way to peace.
F clowns!
Putin’s lackey Witkoff get out from the destiny of Ukrainian 🇺🇦people! Don’t negotiate with their territories, give to war criminal putin your territories!!
Free Ucraine!!
24 hours
33 Billion American taxpayers money to Israel in 2 yrs…they're getting paid
阿拉斯加給俄羅斯,烏東四州給烏克蘭,川普獲得2026諾貝爾和平獎,三贏 😁
The Trump regime brokered a peace deal with Iran.
In exchange,Iran will be opening a flying carpet factory in Wyoming for US nuclear technology?
Huge Respect to Mr Putin and The Russian Federation for liberating those territories effected by the Zelensky fascist regime. Good always triumphs over evil in the end.
Witkoff and ZzZTrump are both so stupid.
Witkoff has traveled to Moscow and met with Putin numerous times. He has never been to Ukraine. He routinely talks about what a wonderful guy Putin is. The man has no experience in this, as his background is as a real estate developer. It is crazy that he is being taken serious by anybody as someone who can handle this level of negotiation and deal with people like Putin, who he appears to be extremely partial to. Kushner says that he was trained in foreign policy in the first Trump administration. That would be the administration that he left with to broker a $2 billion deal with Saudi Arabia. That’s what this is all about. If you just look a little bit below the surface on the current deal, they “brokered” between Israel and Hamas you can find all sorts of deals that were set up to profit from the outcomes of this arrangement. That is the priority rather than any type of peace that would benefit the people who live in these regions. There is very little of anything that is done in the Trump administration that isn’t done for the ultimate goal of making money for the elite group of people that are benefiting from it.
A realtor trying to cosplay a diplomat.
Their answers in terms of of their methodology makes a lot of sense actually. #logic
Yeah Witkoff is a real patriot.. a low life AIPAC/ Russian one at best..
HIs idea of a peace treaty is to surrender to Russia!? I wonder if he would surrender America?!
There’s no war between Algeria and Morocco!!! Algeria won’t accept any interference in its own affairs. The USA has lost legitimacy in making any peace deals as long as its history involves provoking wars to control oil and gas resources and supplying weapons to IzraHELL.
Witkof is a wimp. Weakest and most inexperienced man ever to hold this position. Russians have him for breakfast every time. He returns and pushes their narrative. Trump appointments to senior positions are all hopelessly out of their depth. Their only qualification is total loyalty to Trump, not the Constitution. This is why the US is doomed to failure. No-one should be surprised
UN would not do a deal. UN security council has decided three times pro Russia since 2018. I have the mandate here too. I gabe the Ukraine two options to end the war. They have not really decuded. I first hoped Russia will take over whichbis one possibility but I think I might… Message me for an Interview.
Alot of spin. Witkoff at least regarding Ukraine has been destructive.
Putins friend and Jew who trading in Russia for centuries
You treat these real estate hustlers as if they actually have any real knowledge or understanding of history and politics.
Long term diplomatic thing with Iran . How ? god bless …
Stand with Ukraine!
“1:04 no idea about Putin too much” well, if there’s anyone who knows about pootin’ too much, it’s this bloated orange monstrosity
