Summary
French President Emmanuel Macron publicly corrected Donald Trump in the Oval Office after Trump falsely claimed Europe was only “loaning” money to Ukraine.
Macron clarified that Europe provided 60% of Ukraine’s wartime aid as grants and guarantees, not loans. Trump smirked but did not contest the correction.
The exchange came as Trump softened his stance on Russia, including voting against a UN resolution for Russia’s withdrawal from Ukraine.
Not only Trump’s argument was bullshit, it also shows to the world that he is incapable of understanding the concept of doing the right thing if it doesn’t profit him in some way. The man is completely devoid of compassion and does not understand the struggles of anyone who isn’t in his position as a billionaire.
To him, the only struggle that matters is the “struggle” of billionaires like him who might have to give some money back to the society that made their fortune and to reduce human suffering. When you hear him talk, you can clearly tell that in his mind, paying taxes is the worst atrocity to ever exist and no sacrifice is too big to remedy that. He will happily feed an entire country into the clutches of a brutal autocracy and destroy an entire government that people depend on to not starve to death just so he and other billionaires like him can pay lower taxes.
Stop voting for rich people. They are completely disconnected from reality and clearly mentally ill.
No no no, you don’t understand, the hate isn’t egomaniac, it’s actually a kind of psychotic hate that costs and is expensive. It’s not about profit. He is hanging on to a specific genital due to fear and he is defending his self destructive hate spiral by withdrawing into a psychosis that is shared with several tragic other self destructive manchilds that are also afraid that they aren’t being relevant to others because the kids actually aren’t respecting them. And the only way the death cult psychosis can move is toward a grievous hara kiri gash because they believe it is revenge on the imagined injustice and outrage over the slander the god emperor cult head has been met with at every turn that their mass psychosis has been offered a way out of their fatal ailment. Pretty tragic but it’s way beyond money, it’s already been distributed
