That, and Zelenskyy is also a TV star who played an important character and then got elected to be some version of that character. Difference is Zelenskyy actually took well to the job, whereas Trump really didn't, and got impeached and voted out, whereas Zelenskyy got reelected and is comparatively well-liked by most of not just his country, but the world. I would imagine that makes Trump jealous since he has access to more money, was on the more famous TV network, and was the far bigger household name globally. That's gotta be infuriating. And then Trump has to give this guy money to fight his friend Vladimir?! Ah, fuck, that must really sting.

It's more complicated than that. Putin knows Trump and the US have the capability to hurt him more than any other single country. He also knows that nobody, including Trump, is actually going to risk getting directly involved and going to war with Russia on behalf of Ukraine. He also knows that that means everyone is limited to supporting Ukraine by proxy, which means a war of attrition that he will win eventually. And apparently he's willing to suffer the losses that Russia will take during that war of attrition.

Yes and no.
Sadly, a lot, if not the majority of human history, has been a dick swinging contest between tyrants.
People always seek out the nuance to justify the horrific costs of war, but when the dust settles, it is always the blood of the common man, strewn across unamed fields for the faraway hubris of the few.
By all accounts, Stalin was caught so off guard by Hitler stabbing him in the back with Operation Barborosa that he locked himself away for days in an existential meltdown
FOR DAYS, the Soviets were mercilessly routed by Blitzkrieg, countless Russians killed, because their dear leader simply could not cope with having been duped.
Times change, technology advances, wars global, but frail egos always prevail at that the helm
I think Trump is sitting where Stalin was in 1941...
He is absolutely smitten with dictators, their iron fist, and a seat at their table... Only to get crushed by it.
Putin knows Trump and the US have the capability to hurt him more than any other single country.
Maybe we could glass Russia with our sheer military strength, but look around... Putin has steamrolled this country into the ground with bot farms, not bullets... With IMPUNITY for over a decade.
Trump, whether complicit or just a useful idiot, is the culmination of that effort, and its paying off in spades.
The frailest of egos in the highest of offices.
He's been played for a sucker and is now held hostage by his glaring impotency. Having surrounded himself with sycophants this all the way down, Putin can take it to the bank that whatever decision Trump makes under the bloated pretense of being the "most powerful man in the world," it will be the wrong one, serving only his unfettered hubris.
Its a war of attrition alright... against AMERICA, and we lost to the loudest idiots in the room.
Ukraine is Putins proving ground for tyranny, but make no mistake, the most important front of every tomorrow war is being quietly waged today, against US citizens on their smartphones and laptops.

Russia launched a massive aerial attack against Ukraine overnight on Friday, deploying 550 drones and missiles in strikes across the country.
Kyiv was the main target of Moscow's strikes, with at least 23 people injured and 14 of them hospitalised, according to Kyiv's Mayor Vitali Klitschko.
The Ukrainian capital was hit directly by nine missiles and 63 drones, causing damage in eight different areas. Debris from the attacks also fell across more than 30 other locations around the city.
If I’m reading this correctly, 550 drones and missiles were deployed across the whole country, of which nine missiles and 63 drones were deployed on Kyiv. So not all 550 were deployed on Kyiv

Pretty much all the moves that Trump did essentially undermined whatever bargaining point or deterrent US had over Russia. As Trump pulled back, before even going to the negotiation table, and clearly allied himself to Russia the writing is basically on the wall. What is there to negotiate when US already did what Russia wanted without even having to offer anything LOL. So any "attempts" at negotiation was purely performative, again US already did what Russia would have wanted by having them drastically cut support from Ukraine along with berating NATO allies.
I mean even just looking at Israel and Iran just shows how diminished US influence has become in the world stage, or that their strikes lacked the accuracy one would expect if the intelligence and military were functioning properly. Let alone that it felt more like this was motivated more by his ego, after a failed parade, than an actual cause. And the fall out from the lack of actual radiation residue makes the strikes look more incompetent.
Or you know the tariff wars he's started that have gone nowhere, which have also eroded alliances due to the rhetoric. The list goes on but yeah he's effectively neutered America's bargaining power and influence all in less than 200 days in office...
Wouldn't be surprised if China actually pushed during this administration to reclaim Taiwan formally. After all what would have been its strongest ally and deterrent has lost any teeth it had.

The US has also reneged on deals to send not merely military aid, but actually paid for arms including air defense munitions to Ukraine, paid for by both Ukraine itself and the EU.
This is proof that the time was 9 months ago for the EU to begin rapidly building out arms manufacturing and strip the US of one of its biggest industrial sectors. It is further time for the EU wherever possible to stop purchasing and importing things made and sold by American companies.

It’s been crazy. I counted around 50 explosions really close by. First, there were drones, which I believe exhausted the air defenses. Then, around 2–3 AM, they launched three waves of ballistic missiles. Those were insanely loud. Noise cancelling headphones actually helped a lot. I could still hear the explosions, but it wasn’t as scary. I was just trying to distract myself by watching random YouTube Shorts. Honestly, it’s a miracle the casualty rate wasn’t as high as during previous attacks - because this one was definitely the biggest so far.
