Souvenirs of a Con Man
Trump clutches trophies, photos, and hats while America burns abroad and crumbles at home.

And here’s where it turns from pathetic to dangerous: that Putin photo-op came literally one day after Russia deliberately bombed a U.S.-owned factory in Ukraine. The target was Flex, a company that manufactures consumer electronics and appliances, not weapons, there was no military value in the strike. The only strategic purpose was humiliation: to torch an American investment and rub Trump’s nose in it. Six hundred workers survived thanks only to strict safety drills, but the message was unmistakable: Moscow was giving Trump the middle finger.
World leaders from Zelensky to Macron to Starmer to Albanese asked the obvious, what would America’s response be? Trump’s answer: “I’m not happy about it… we’ll see in two weeks. I better be very happy.” In other words, U.S. business burns while Trump holds up souvenirs and checks his mood ring.
MeidasTouch captured it perfectly: Putin lobs missiles at American property, Trump brags about their friendship photo and wants him at the World Cup. Russian state TV could hardly contain its glee, praising Trump, JD Vance, and Pete Hegseth for staying quiet about the strikes, and even taking credit for the FBI raid on John Bolton’s home, a raid one Russian pundit claimed he personally recommended months earlier. In Moscow’s eyes, Trump isn’t just weak, he’s obedient. And in Washington, the “law-and-order” president is now using the FBI not to protect Americans from foreign attacks, but to settle scores with a hawk who dared to call him unfit. Moscow knows a stooge when they see one and Trump, wearing his “Right About Everything” hat, is only too happy to play the part.
