Trump SUFFERS Major HUMILIATION as Ukraine Plan UTTERLY FAILS - Meidas Touch



Donald Trump claims he can end the war in Ukraine—but the optics and timing of recent events tell a far more troubling story. As Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy traveled to Florida for critical peace talks, Trump publicly highlighted a phone call with Vladimir Putin, positioning himself as the central power broker while Russia escalated threats and spread disinformation.

In this video, we break down how Russia’s sudden claim of a foiled drone attack on Putin’s residence fits a familiar pattern of information warfare, why Zelenskyy has warned of imminent strikes on Kyiv’s government buildings, and how Trump’s personalized, optics-driven diplomacy risks pressuring Ukraine rather than confronting Russian aggression. Anthony Davis reacts. - 01/02/2026.

It's always somebody else's fault. He responds to his own failures and to criticism not by looking inward at himself, but by lashing out at others and seeking retribution.

The one time it might be said Trump was publicly humiliated was when he had to sit still in the audience at the Correspondents Dinner as President Obama roasted him. What was going through Trump's lizard brain as he sat there? Revenge, and a grudge he will NEVER let go of.
