      So, Mr trump, are you going to block sale of US weapon systems to other nations too to stay consistent with your messaging? Have you consulted your Military Industrial Complex handlers from Lockheed, Raytheon, and others yet?

        something about Zelensky being a dictator so it’s different, then how “Biden aligned himself with these dictators but we won’t”. then they push they election again. they own an opposition candidate. next cycle he’ll lift the ban of french fries after “the left banned them”, even though they never were.
