Kyiv, Ukraine (CNN) — US President Donald Trump said he is “not happy” after Russia launched its deadliest wave of attacks on Kyiv in nine months, telling President Vladimir Putin to “STOP!” as he attempts to push Ukraine to agree on a contentious ceasefire proposal.

Moscow sent 70 missiles and 145 drones toward Ukraine, mainly targeting Kyiv, Ukraine’s Air Force said, killing at least eight people.

“I am not happy with the Russian strikes on KYIV. Not necessary, and very bad timing. Vladimir, STOP! 5000 soldiers a week are dying. Lets get the Peace Deal DONE!” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Wednesday.

Emergency services said Moscow’s attacks struck 13 locations in Kyiv, including residential buildings and civilian infrastructure. Ukraine’s emergency services earlier reported that nine people had died and more than 60 had been wounded.

3. Drugs................

Putin needs to stop, period.

Ukraine will join NATO.

4. Very bad timing Trump?? Everything is about YOU,always has been always will be.

[liberalgunwilltravel]

5. Putin replies

Shut up and continue sucking.

[wyn borkins]

6. Not Happy versus Concerned

Does anyone suppose his statement "I am not happy..." in any way similar to Senator Susan Collins "being concerned" (?).

[Tarzanrock]

7. Things just aren't the same in global dictator land.

Kim Jong un isn't writing love letters to the Turd. Xi Jinging won't "call" the Turd to "negotiate" a "trade deal" with the Turd. Vladimir Putin didn't "stop" the war he started in Ukraine to appease the Turd on Day One like the Turd promised would happen. Now, Putin is ignoring the Turd's important "tweets." Things just aren't the same in global dictator land.

8. He truly has no self awareness

[C_U_L8R]

9. Pathetic.

Putin is mocking him.

[taxi]

10. Poor fool thinks that Truth Social is a diplomatic channel.

What's next, placing a message in the personal section of a Moscow daily?
All kidding aside, these actions are meant for his supporters, and no one else. Why is this even reported on?

11. Early in Donald Trump's life he learned

that if he shouted and screamed enough, he would get whatever he wanted. He has not progressed beyond that stage of development. In his first term he had people keeping him in line, but now he’s only got toadies and yes-men around, and he’s been anointed as “immune” by the Supreme Court.

So now we’re seeing what happens when an almost-octagenarian with the emotional development of a toddler becomes President of the United States without guardrails. He’s publicly addressing the leader of one of America’s longstanding adversaries in a way that sounds like a kid in the back seat of the family sedan yelling at his sister to quit hitting him. What a pathetic embarrassment.

21. He's always been a whiney crybaby

Yet for some reason that passes for toughness among the MAGA crowd.

[Moostache]

12. Seriously? And people dog-piled Biden?

Trump is nearaly as bad as my dementia-addled father at this point. My dad is not allowed to leave his room or care floor without an attendant. Who gets THAT shit job in the White House? And more importantly, why can't they figure out a way to give Trump a fake phone for him to rage text on all night long?

And has anyone evaluated Trump for a serious case of "Sundowning"?

The term "sundowning" refers to a state of confusion that occurs in the late afternoon and lasts into the night. Sundowning can cause various behaviors, such as confusion, anxiety, aggression or ignoring directions. Sundowning also can lead to pacing or wandering.

Sundowning isn't a disease. It's a group of symptoms that occurs at a specific time of the day. These symptoms may affect people with Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia. The exact cause of sundowning is not known.

13. Putin is laughing at his stooge. Meanwhile, Trump's "plan" for peace is exposed as worthless, and based on lies.

If I were Putin, I'df probably play along with Trump to cement Russin control over Crimea and eastern Ukraine. But Putin believes he can get it all without wasting time on Trump's peace "plans."

[SupportSanity]

14. Vlad: don't stop oops, forgot the comma

should've been Vlad: don't, stop

[chowder66]

15. Hey Orange Blister, Russia has minerals.

16. Here's a Ukrainian's view of the situation

I've been watching her videos for a little over a year now. She has a unique style and is very sarcastic which I love. Her husband was a military pilot killed in the early days at the 2014 start of the war so she's not shy in showing her hatred of the Russians.
"The Russians are laughing at America."
YouTube decided that showing news clips of the war is a bad so it's age-restricted. There's nothing in the video that couldn't be shown on the 6 o'clock news so I don't get why they age-restricted it.

18. good golly gee

The Ukrainians would have put those 10 patriot systems they asked for and were willing to PAY for to good use.

[Wonder Why]

19. It's so wonderful that they can discuss war crimes on a first name basis.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

20. Lame performance

"See how tough I am on Vladimir, my BFF? I will appear tough while giving him everything he wants! That's why I posted this on my fake twitter, instead of speaking privately! I'm so good at this!"
