President Trump has a meet-up with Vlad this Friday in Alaska. What is likely to come out of it: a Putin capitulation, a Zelensky one, or combination of both? Essentially, two of the three are Ukrainian surrenders, Zelensky and the combination. Lest we forget, Russia invaded the country and has been brutalizing the people for over three years. Putin is guilty of war crimes. Yet, we must have peace at any price by the reckoning of some around the president.

We’ll see. As usual, the cartoonist Ramirez captures my view of the matter quite succinctly.
