I don't think he's going to try that silly **** about "We won't invite Ukraine into NATO for at least X number of years." That is a non starter and there is no way he isn't aware it's a non starter. The main reason for the SMO was the talk about Ukraine joining NATO in violation of its own Constitution, which mandates neutrality ala Switzerland.
I am 100% sure that Trump will recognize that Russia owns the land it has taken. That land could have remained Ukraine, had Ukraine kept its agreements from the Minsk Accords. Now it has fallen to Russia, peopled by ethnic Russians who speak Russian and who were being brutalized by the DC puppet regime in Kyiv and who have voted or will vote to be part of Russia.
You know - democracy and stuff. Will of the people. Consent of the governed. That stuff.
So, that's gone - nevermore to be a part of Ukraine. With it, the metals that Linsey Graham was eying like a fresh young stud on the scene.
So... predictions, anyone?

He won't have any trouble AT ALL getting Putin to rebuild parts of Ukraine. It'll be the parts he took.PhiloBeddo » 01 Jan 2025, 6:50 pm » wrote: ↑ I think Trump will get Ukraine to give up some of its territory and Putin to agree to rebuild parts of Ukraine
Another prediction, Zelensky will run out of money..Cannonpointer » 01 Jan 2025, 6:35 pm » wrote: ↑ Well duh. My question was what that will look like - what he will concede to Putin.
I say that he will concede Putin's red-line issues:
1. No reversing; Russia keeps its territorial gains; and,
2. No NATO in Ukraine, ever; and
3. Ukraine respects its Constitutional mandate to stay out of ANY military agreements, east OR west; and
4. Ukraine's military will be limited to 85,000 service members.
Now, THAT is my prediction. I might be right, and I might be wrong. But I made a prediction. You didn't.

Likely China will find some way to buttress the ruble, given that Russia is taking his heat right now.LowIQTrash » 02 Jan 2025, 10:16 am » wrote: ↑ How much are these young studs getting paid to get Graham's wiener shoved up their holes?
How many wieners did JD Vance accept in either mouth or poop outlet to become a "venture capitalist" under Thiel's tutelage?
QUESTIONs I DEMAND ANSWERS TO![]()
As for the OP, I can honestly say given the conman Trump is, there may be no deal at all. Ukraine will just have to surrender eventually (though the Russian Ruble is already under severe stress so there's a possibility Putin may decide to discontinue for financial reasons).
Again, Putin will rebuild ALL of Ukraine -that he now owns. The west will rebuild what's left.PhiloBeddo » 01 Jan 2025, 6:50 pm » wrote: ↑ I think Trump will get Ukraine to give up some of its territory and Putin to agree to rebuild parts of Ukraine
No NATO, AND no "peace keepers." Also, Ukraine's military is capped at 85k service members.*GHETTOBLASTER » 02 Jan 2025, 9:54 am » wrote: ↑ Putin is not going to allow any language that involves allowing [[[NATO]]] to maintain a military presence in Ukraine...or any future deadline for when Ukraine is allowed to join NATO.
If I were Putin I would take issue with Trump for claiming that he could guarantee an instantaneous peace settlement with me.
I would take that as an insult and let him know that this insult will drive my price [to settle this matter] somewhat higher than if Trump had chosen to not campaign on the false pretense that he holds some kind of magic power of persuasion over me.
Hell, knowing Trump, he might get Putin to quietly look away from Iran in exchange for the U.S. and its vassals looking away from Ukraine.Mrkelly » 02 Jan 2025, 10:15 am » wrote: ↑ I think that tRump will attempt to cut all funding to Ukraine
And give Putin the green light
tRump will get resistance from both sides
But he will get it done
Then once he targets Iran, both sides will join in and distract us from anything else
That’s when tRump will have to deal with Putin
China wants Russia to remain strong enough to help it deal with US incursions in the future, but not so strong that they become rivals again (like during the Cold War).Cannonpointer » 02 Jan 2025, 10:39 pm » wrote: ↑ Likely China will find some way to buttress the ruble, given that Russia is taking his heat right now.
I have always strongly believed that NK is a vassal of China. If I am right, China is already supporting Vlad.
What Obama gave away, Trump must honor the give-away of other people's sovereignty and land. I am sure you will recite the people elected to return to Russia after it was captured in the land grab to build the pipeline into Europe.Cannonpointer » 01 Jan 2025, 5:28 pm » wrote: ↑ Predictions, anyone?

If Russia takes everything east of the Dnieper, They will hold trillions worth of rare earth minerals.

I don’t know what is going on in Putin’s circle. All I know is that Russia has seized parts of Eastern Ukraine and is advancing slowly, but this doesn’t guarantee victory.
Keep in mind Ukraine could, in theory, decide to discontinue the war and tell Russia to keep eastern Ukraine, and then begin sabotaging them after the deal is over. Basically a “You’ll get a hollow victory” message.
It’s not that easy.

Wasn't that around the same time China was building the world's largest dam and the experts were testifying it would cause the planet to wobble out of orbit due to the weight of the water it would hold?
