“Ukraine is gone. It’s not Ukraine anymore. You can never replace those cities and towns, and you can never replace the dead people, so many dead people,” Trump said. “Any deal, even the worst deal, would have been better than what we have right now.

“If they made a bad deal, it would have been much better, they would have given up a little bit,” he continued. “And everybody would be living, and every building would be built, and every tower would be aging for another 2,000 years.”

"Just give them what they want."

For all we know, this could be in the first edition as I can’t imagine too many people have actually read it.

This from the guy leading the "Don't Tread on Me" crowd?

"So many dead from the US Revolutionary War, so much destruction, you can never replace the dead people, so many dead people. Any deal, even the worst deal, would have been better. If the Colonies made a bad deal with the British, it would have been much better, they would have given up a little bit and everybody would be living."

I would say something about the Union making a deal with the CSA, but a scary amount of conservatives think we should've done exactly that.

I know 5th graders with more foreign policy knowledge than this dipshit. Like, 2,000 year old buildings? What the fuck is he even talking about
