I think Trump is still planning to cut off support for Ukraine. He knows Putin has Kompromat on him from Jeffrey. Trump is supporting all of the other Putin puppets in Europe and now is trying to influence Poland and Germany. He's using US economic power through tariffs against Brazil for prosecuting Bolsonaro and bailouts of Milei in Argentina to support Autocrats in South America. The Republicans he has been blackmailing to vote in lockstep against funding Ukraine because they said we needed to focus on supporting Israel are now going to use the coming unjustified attacks against Venezuela as the new reason to stop funding Ukraine. And Trump's racist attacks against South Africa over the G20 are just more proof of the agenda he's pushing.
