Are the Europeans crazy enough to think that somehow they can salvage Ukraine? Their latest scheme is, I think, correct me if I’m wrong, or if you see this differently. I think the Europeans right now, to be honest, are buying time. They’re buying time. They’re waiting for the midterm elections. The American midterm. The American midterm elections this coming November. They have been told by—and again, we have a lot of treasonous people here in the United States. I understand policy differences. I have many policy differences. But when you go and negotiate with foreigners to undermine the executive of the United States, you’re committing treason.

And you have Democrats and Republicans right now who are meeting with the Europeans. You have some people in Trump’s cabinet who are meeting with the Europeans, telling them, all we have to do is delay, hold on, survive until November. And then if Congress is flipped, then Trump will be stymied. And then all you have to do is wait the final two years, and then we can reverse all this. So that’s what they’re trying to do. They’re in no position to create a war because they don’t have any ability. What they’re doing is creating political difficulties for this president, and they’re trying to extend the viability of Zelensky.

But it’s not working, because on the front line right now, the Ukrainian army is in mere total collapse. And there’s nothing that can be done to salvage that situation. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian energy sector has collapsed. Their cities are dark. And they have no money, none. Their cities are dark and probably cold. The Rada was told to pass a budget when you don’t have any money. And Zelensky’s government is falling apart. So this strategy of holding on isn’t going to work. And so you’ll see, the more desperate things become for the Ukrainians, the more harsh and shrill the rhetoric will be out of Europe.

But be rest assured, Europe can do nothing to back their words up. Well, their latest stunt, and then we’ll jump to the killings in the Caribbean, their—I’m sorry to say that so flippantly, but that’s what it is—their latest stunt, which came out of the meeting of Mertz, Macron, Starmer, and Zelensky attend Downing Street on Monday, was new elections in Ukraine monitored and security guaranteed by NATO. I mean, could you imagine Putin consenting to that? Could you imagine Trump consenting to that? No. There will be elections in Ukraine. The elections will come after the capitulation of Zelensky.

The elections have already been organized conceptually by the Russians. They know who the candidates are. They know how they want to facilitate it. They know what the outcomes are. That’s what you get to do when you win a war. People are like, that’s terrible. Well, you know, the United States created military government to occupy Germany around 1943. And so as we rolled into Germany, every town, every city that we occupied, a military government moved in that had been preparing to occupy that city, that town, for several years now. And we had a blacklist of Germans that were going to be arrested, a gray list of Germans that were going to be monitored, and a white list of Germans that we were going to work with.

That’s what victors get to do. They get to dictate the outcome. And this is what Russia is going to do in Ukraine. So I’m not worried about any of this stuff. Europe has no ability to do anything without the backing of the United States. And if you just read the National Security Strategy of the United States, put out by the Trump administration a week ago today, Europe’s on the wrong path towards civilizational erasure. [tr:trw].
