Trump is currently on a mission to bring the war between Russia and Ukraine to a close.
He and Zelenskyy have been sparring over the terms of what a peace agreement might look like and how much of Ukraine Russia may be able to keep, as noted by The New York Times.

“He is the leader of the American people, whom we respect a lot,” he also said. “Unfortunately, he lives in a disinformation space.”
“Think of it, a modestly successful comedian, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, talked the United States of America into spending $350 Billion Dollars, to go into a War that couldn’t be won, that never had to start, but a War that he, without the U.S. and ‘TRUMP,’ will never be able to settle,” Trump wrote.
“The United States has spent $200 Billion Dollars more than Europe, and Europe’s money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back. Why didn’t Sleepy Joe Biden demand Equalization, in that this War is far more important to Europe than it is to us — We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation,” Trump continued.

He believes we need to stop sending billions of dollars of taxpayer money to Dictator Zelenskyy to continue a war that is lost and has taken millions of lives.

Trump then indicted Zelenskyy as a failure.

Trump said talks are making progress while Ukraine pouts.
When it comes to blame for the Russian invasion of Ukraine, I blame Putin above all others.
If you’re looking for American politicians to blame, Biden and Obama are at the top of my list. They were pathetically weak in handling Putin and failed to protect Ukraine from invasion.…

“In the meantime, we are successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia, something all admit only ‘TRUMP,’ and the Trump Administration, can do. Biden never tried, Europe has failed to bring Peace, and Zelenskyy probably wants to keep the ‘gravy train’ going,” he wrote.
Trump then offered his conclusion: “I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered, and MILLIONS have unnecessarily died — And so it continues…..”
