Uh, no, Putin want to help elect Surrender Monkey Trump who said Russia can do whatever he wants to NATO countries not paying enough. Also Putin hasn't forgotten how Trump kissed Pooty's ass in Helsinki while throwing our intel agencies under the bus.

When it comes to the Ukraine war, where the nation is defending itself against the Russian invasion, Trump for months now has been bragging that if he were president again, he could end the war in a day.

In May, in a CNN town hall, Trump said, “I will have that war settled in one day, 24 hours.” Trump said that would happen after he met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Zelenskyy rang the alarm bells over this in an interview that aired Friday on the U.K.’s Channel 4 News. He said Trump’s claim that he could end Ukraine’s war with Russia in a day was “very dangerous.”

If Trump can make the war end in 24 hours, he should do so, Zelenskyy said.

“Donald Trump, I invite you to Ukraine, to Kyiv. If you can stop the war during 24 hours, I think it will be enough to come,” Zelenskyy said.

But it’s not so easy. The Putin-friendly Trump seems to be content to let Putin keep the parts of Ukraine the Russians have captured. That would be ending the war on Putin’s terms — giving him the territory he stole — to which Zelenskyy would never agree.

Zelenskyy also said, “Because even if his idea [for ending the war] — that no one has heard yet — doesn’t work for us, for our people, he will do anything to implement his idea anyway. And this worries me a little.”
