    “Ukraine is gone. It’s not Ukraine anymore. You can never replace those cities and towns, and you can never replace the dead people, so many dead people,” Trump said. “Any deal, even the worst deal, would have been better than what we have right now.

    “If they made a bad deal, it would have been much better, they would have given up a little bit,” he continued. “And everybody would be living, and every building would be built, and every tower would be aging for another 2,000 years.”

      This from the guy leading the “Don’t Tread on Me” crowd?

      “So many dead from the US Revolutionary War, so much destruction, you can never replace the dead people, so many dead people. Any deal, even the worst deal, would have been better. If the Colonies made a bad deal with the British, it would have been much better, they would have given up a little bit and everybody would be living.”

        I would say something about the Union making a deal with the CSA, but a scary amount of conservatives think we should’ve done exactly that.

    After all, everyone’s biggest grievance against Appeasement when that nasty character Hitler was stomping around is just that it didn’t go far enough, and we could have avoided all that ugliness if we’d given more. Right?
