10. "Trump got played."
Sat Aug 16, 2025, 03:02 PM

Pretty much what I expected. Or rather, it's actually worse than what I expected. I figured it would go something like this:

1. Schlump would come out of it with some bogus ass offer to wave under Zelensky's nose.

2. Zelensky would tell Schlump to go fly a kite because said offer would include Ukraine ceding part of its territory to Russia (and probably other ridiculous conditions as well).

3. Schlump would have a tantrum and badmouth Zelensky in a presser, while...

4. Putin would watch Trump's presser on TV while sitting in a cushy armchair at the Kremlin and chuckling to himself.

Instead, it sounds like Putin was the one who told Schlump to go fly a kite, and now Schlump is all brokenhearted because his idol treated him like the hopeless schlub that he is!

So I was partly right: Schlump DID get played, just not in the exact way I expected. Poor Baby Donnie!
