This is Trump’s thing. He chronically carries a white flag and that is not new. He is a weak president and because of that the USA is compromised. As a compromised country with a weak president we are not good partners at any peace table.
Trump does not understand nor cares to understand if the USA concedes it’s strength to communists they will continue to demand more and more concessions even after the peace agreement is signed at a huge ceremony.
Trump does NOT get it.
Trump wants the ceremony. What happens to get it doesn’t matter to him.
The world is on to him. He gets played all the time. He got played by Musk and the problems the USA is facing because of Trump’s lack of character is enormous.
