Almost simultaneously, these words rang out:
A Russian anti-Rashist analyst: "Trump is a huge misfortune that has fallen on the heads of the world!"
My friend of 50 years in Kharkiv: "Trump is a terrible misfortune that has befallen Ukraine!"
Explanation:
The Russian anti-Rashist analyst is the only political commentator in Russian with whom I’ve shared the same positions since the beginning of the war – and not once, I repeat, not once has he disappointed me!
His name is Igor Yakovenko.

I believe that, on a purely human level, I understand those supporters of Ukraine among us who claim or repost articles and statuses on social media about how Ukraine could still win the War.

Alas, in my opinion, Ukraine can no longer win the War.

Only against Putin's Russia could Ukraine fight and even defeat it (until the West reduced aid in the fall of 2022 and until the counteroffensive was miscalculated as a strategy and ineffective as a tactic).

Against Putin's Russia and Xi's China, it was approximately possible for Ukraine to maintain a combat balance.

Lately, my writings here have revolved around several key points that shape my reasoning and conclusions.

First, Trump has made so many obvious failures and laughable, almost cartoonish mistakes that it’s becoming harder and harder for him to continue playing Putin’s tune like some seduced and abandoned maiden. The way he flatters, grovels, and panders to the Russian dictator, hoping for anything more than the absolute zero that his actions toward Russia have yielded so far—it’s pathetic beyond parody.

It is amazing how all of us wish for positive news – we are ready to grab even the smallest hint of it like a drowning man grabs a straw...
Although there has never been a case in human history where the straw helped the drowning man. More often, he saved himself by grabbing his own hair and pulling himself out of the deepest swamp that sucked him in.

Unfortunately, we see with our raw nerves a theatre for a single actor, narcissistically poking his nose in the middle of the madhouse, known by inertia as the White House, although it has been generating only black swans and black thoughts for more than three months.

For me (and clearly not just for me), the fact that the U.S. has a totally unhinged idiot as its president is incredibly dangerous for the world.
But it’s even more dangerous for Trump himself.

Trump is surrounded by absolute mediocrities, sycophants, cynics, illiterates, and crooks who only tell him what he wants to hear and show him what he wants to see. This way, Trump lives in a make-believe world, and anything he learns that doesn’t suit him, he instinctively and impulsively rejects.
