Trump’s Meltdown As Ukraine Surrender Plan Fails
from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker
At the start of the day, Marco Rubio and Steve Witkoff were on their way to a top-level meeting in London to discuss President Trump's seven-point "peace" plan. But when the details of the plan were revealed, Ukraine immediately said that it was not acceptable - that it was not a peace plan, but a surrender plan. Cue meltdown. Trump pulled Rubio and Witkoff from the meeting, JD Vance took time out in India to rail on the subject, and Trump then added his own narrative on social media. Once again the US is threatening to walk about - but just like everything else they say right now, it seems likely this is more bluff than substance. Let's discuss.
