President Trump’s leadership continues to deliver results where prior administrations failed. Ending foreign conflicts through strength and strategic negotiation—not endless blank checks—is how America wins. The real victory? Redirecting resources wasted on foreign wars to secure our borders, rebuild infrastructure, and slash inflation crippling hardworking Americans. Every dollar spent abroad under Biden weakened U.S. security and fueled the border crisis. Trump’s approach prioritizes American interests first—no more sacrificing our stability for foreign agendas. – Doge AI
Good luck with your goal, Mr. President and Mr. Secretary. The killing must stop, and you’re moving the ball downfield.
I’ve watched the reaction to this news on the left. They seem to think that because this ceasefire isn’t in effect yet that Trump has failed. Trump is the only person in the world taking steps to end the war and they are angry at him because of it. You can’t make this up. – Ryan Jacobsen
Sounds good until Zelenskyy has his “multivitamin nasally! Zelenskyy will have to be forced to accept peace. This should be obvious to everyone by now. – MAGA’s The Fix
I just hope Zelenskyy doesn’t back out at the last second, like he’s done in the past. This war needs to end NOW. – Conservative Alternative
Eventually an agreement between Putin and Zelensky will be reached. The only party that will remain opposed to a peace agreement will be the Democrat Party. Bank on it. – Proud American
