YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Following Donald Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin on Friday, a Russian tank was seen patrolling the streets of Ukraine sporting both a Russian flag and an American flag. Clearly, the soldiers fighting for Putin believe that the US is on their side, or they want to imply that and humiliate Trump even further. Either way, this is a devastating sign for our allies in Europe, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Following his absolutely pathetically humiliating meeting with Vladimir Putin. Last Friday, video footage was released by rt, the Russian state-owned media company that showed a Russian tank, formerly an American tank, but they had captured it a long time ago, so it's now their tank. But RT shared footage of this now Russian tank rolling down the streets of Ukraine, sporting both a Russian flag and of course an American flag. This was an attempt by Russia and RT to show the people of Ukraine that the United States is not on your side. The United States is no longer gonna help you because Vladimir Putin has Donald Trump in his pocket. That is the message that this tank was conveying as it was, you know, attacking people in Ukraine.

Putin knows that with Donald Trump in office, he can do whatever the hell he wants, and the public knows it, and Ukraine knows it, and Europe knows it. And you know how we know it? Because Donald Trump has literally told us, he has said in recent days that, you know, Zelensky is the one holding up a ceasefire. Zelensky was the one who was attacked. Ukraine was sitting there and Russia decided, you know what? We want part of their territories, we're gonna start bombing them. That is not Zelensky fault. That is not Ukraine's fault. They were the victims here. Russia was the aggressor. It's not up to the victim to cry uncle and say, okay, you win. Let's work a deal. No, the deal would involve Ukraine giving up their territories, and that's what Putin wants. And that is, of course, what Donald Trump has suggested in recent days, and that's why Russia feels the arrogance that they now feel that they can fly this American flag. According to others on the ground in Ukraine, they're using other American symbols as they go through and kill children. You know, a a lot has been been talked about regarding, you know, the death of all the children in Gaza, which let's be honest, is definitely to a higher degree than what we're seeing in Ukraine. But just in the last few days, we have seen toddlers killed by Russian fire in Ukraine. We have seen kids five, six years old killed by Russia in Ukraine. Teenagers are being killed. All of this, again, within the last three to four days in targeted attacks

By Russia. Russia has attacked the hospitals. All of this is happening, and Donald Trump is telling Zelensky in the Oval Office, while it's covered in gold, you knew you're the holdup here, you're the problem. Putin is the problem. But as long as Donald Trump continues to bow down for him and wait like a giddy schoolgirl on the red carpet for him, Russia knows they can do whatever the hell they want, including flying American flags on their tanks while they're killing Ukrainians.
