No amount of 'Oh, but I'm not a fan of Putin' explains it away, not when others can support the Trumpist approach without sinking to those depths.
It's almost refreshing to get someone who is not a bot who is a fan of Putin. They do exist, and you think you won't come across them, but here we are.

People demanding peace at any cost (and indeed, effectively that there should have been instant surrender because winning was 'impossible') never count the cost of living under a dictatorial, murderous regime. It's how they maintain morally pure righteousness.StillWaters said:

If the Coke Head of Kiev makes any further critical remarks i reckon he will divert them to Moscow!!
I prefer the 'realpolitik' crowd - we may disagree on things, but at least they acknowledge there are difficult moral lines to be drawn amidst practical possibilities, they don't tell the oppressed they should like it.6 -
I get the impression Trump never expected any real pushback from Ukraine, because it is true Ukraine really needs the USA, as the way he has flipped out in such a personal way seems to be his goto move when he gets even an inch of resistance to what he considers his due. His brain struggles to deal with the shock, so he immediately escalates beyond all reason.DavidL said:

Zelensky pushes back on Trump with facts, not rhetoric.
Zelensky: The U.S. has provided Ukraine with $67 billion in military aid and $31 billion in budget support.
Trump’s $500 billion fossil fuel claim isn’t a serious conversation. 1/..

Speaking of lame attempts, I see Farage is trying to excuse himself with the old 'Don't take Trump literally' line. Which has never really worked, but especially when his actions are following up his angry words.
I don't think Farage will suffer much in the long term, I think the general political zeitgeist is still fabourable to him cause, but he supports Trump's view, and we all know he does, but he knows he has to present a slither of difference for plausible deniability.1 -
Talking about conscription to fight in the east will destroy support for the Ukraine in this country.MattW said:By the way, today's Ukraine the Latest:
'Gen Z will fight' - conscription divides Europe | Ukraine: The Latest | Podcast"
Today, as Donald Trump calls President Zelensky a ‘dictator’, we look at the conundrum facing Europe: to speak out and risk fraying American support, or to stay quiet, and not articulate their sense of betrayal. And, later, we talk about the strategic options available, and dive deeper into the British plans of putting boots on the ground.

Hmmm. They are still quoting Trump's claims uncritically - eg the USA has spent $350bn on supporting Ukraine (which is BS), just as when discussing the inauguration speech they chattered on about eg 'China controlling the Panama Canal', when it does not. Nor then did they engage with the 20 or more items that were just not true.MattW said:B

But they are also pointing out that the Trump claims around "dictator" and so on are nonsense.
Here, they are where some of our righties are on Starmer "doing as well as can be expected with a bad hand", whilst comparing him badly on "mettle". Playing "what would Maggie do" games.
I don't sense perception of the USA as a rival / potential opponent yet, which I think is where they may be forced to go by circumstances.
Interesting changes in balance of the their Right (choose your word, as per usual) position.

Rene Russo, being in possession of a great haircut, is forced to do a love scene on a marble staircase whilst being topped by Brosnan. Whilst it is tastefully filmed, I was muttering to myself throughout "that's going to ruin her back" A gentleman would have offered her a cushion, or at least carry her to a place where adequate and comfortable lumbar support was available. Nor did he offer to make her a sandwich afterwards. Honestly Bros, you could have done better. Tut.biggles said:
