So there was a poll where an overwhelming majority of Americans blame Russia for the war (duh). Shortly after finding out Trump "threatened" Russia without taking any actual measures. Now it's all good again. It'll be enough to convince his MAGA orks that he's not a Russian asset. Putin probably gave his ok for this.

Trump translation reminder: he refers to himself when he refers to the US.
When he says "we are doing well," it's even less ambiguous. He's saying he personally is doing well. Meaning he is either profiting in terms of personal influence, compliments from Putin, feeling powerful, etc. That's all that means.
People don't even know = I just heard about this
The dumbest man to live in North America is still alive, and he's president in the US.
In an ideal world, the dumbest man in America and The President of the United States would be two different people.
We do not live in an ideal world.
My theory on Trump is that the guy bullshited everyone all his life and now, although all his words are scrutinized, continues bullshiting out of reflex.
I think he's just plain senile, but still functional and not at the dribbling stage yet.
Trump has realized he can get away with saying anything. This is because he is doing it constantly, and it exhausts peoples ability to react after a while.
Its quite dangerous because the population will accept almost anything in the end.
I'm sorry, I can't hear what you're saying, over the sound of putin's dick in your mouth!
All he does is spew bullshit, but the insane thing is, the majority of the country fall for it.
This one is easy. His idea about what "doing really well with Russia" means is way different from what American officials have had for decades.
