Back in May of this year, when Trump was hitting countries left and right with tariffs, including an island of penguins, and then backing down, Wall Street gave him the nickname, TACO. The nickname stood for Trump always chickens out. Well, Trump is doing his. TACO, routine again, this time with Moscow.

Trump keeps threatening to punish Putin and Moscow with retaliation for Putin stubbornness in their invasion of Ukraine. Back in August, Putin and Trump met in Alaska. Trump gave Putin the red carpet treatment. So what did Putin do the very next day once he returned to Moscow? The biggest aerial attack on Ukraine since the invasion began. Moscow has not let up on the bombardment ever since. Trump has given a number of deadlines, threatening action on Moscow and each deadline date has been blown past with nothing done. Every freaking deadline.

Ukrainian leader Zelenskyy will be meeting Trump today in Washington seeking shipment of Tomahawk missile to Ukraine. These missiles have a range capability of hitting Moscow. Putin, yesterday, decides to call Trump and have a 2 1/2 hour phone conversation. It is reported that Putin lavished praise on Trump for the ceasefire, in Gaza. Vladimir hit Trump at his most vulnerable spot, his narcissism. Trump fell for it. Trump and Putin will have another meeting this time in Budapest. Trump is so freaking vain.

So what will come out of the meeting today with Zelenskyy? Nothing. Trump will back down again to Putin. Moscow will keep bombarding Ukraine. Nothing will change.

It is absolutely sickening. Putin will keep this up until Ukraine is battered into submission. Trump will stay Putin‘s lap dog.

That’s all I have for today.
