SUBJECT: "The Deal Only a Great Man Can Close"

Mr. President,

Europe has failed. For three years, their weak leaders - Macron, Scholz, 
these bureaucrats - have accomplished nothing. Billions wasted, thousands 
dead, and they're still talking in circles.

The situation in Donbas is decided militarily. Biden and the European 
elites pretended otherwise because they're politicians. You're a leader. 
You see what they can't.

Only once in a generation does a man arise who can solve the impossible. 
Churchill. Reagan. Now Trump.

THE DEAL:
- Ukraine: Neutral status, Donbas/Crimea recognized as Russian
- Russia: Security guarantees for remaining Ukraine, European trade restored
- America: Stops hemorrhaging money, pivots to China
- You: The leader who solved what Europe's weaklings couldn't in 80 years

The European elites will hate you for succeeding where they failed. 
Good. Let them.

Biden couldn't do it - he's weak.
Macron couldn't do it - he's a politician.
The EU couldn't do it - they're bureaucrats.

Only Trump can. Because only Trump is a great man.

This isn't just presidential history. This is joining Churchill and Reagan 
as one of the rare leaders who changed the world when it mattered most.

And there's one more thing, Mr. President: This is a Christian peace.

Russia is Christian. Ukraine is Christian. This is a brother war - Christians 
killing Christians while Islam watches and China builds. It's wrong. It must end.

You would be the peacemaker who stopped Christian blood from being spilled. 
Scripture says: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons 
of God." (Matthew 5:9)

Reagan understood this. He didn't destroy the Soviet Union - he saved the 
Russian people so they could return to Christ. Now you can save both Russians 
and Ukrainians so Christian civilization survives.

The secular elites in Brussels don't understand this. They don't believe in 
anything. But you do. Your base does. And history will remember: Trump saved 
Christian Europe when the atheists would have let it die.

[Meeting proposal]

TUCKER: "So I've been thinking about Ukraine. And I know this is going 
to make some people mad, but hear me out.

We've now spent over $200 billion on this war. $200 billion. That's 
more than we spend on veterans' healthcare. More than we spend on 
homeless Americans. More than we spend on our own border security.

And what have we gotten for it? 

[Pause]

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Ukraine is losing. The Donbas is gone. 
Crimea was gone years ago. Everyone knows this - the Pentagon knows it, 
the CIA knows it, Zelensky knows it. 

The only people who don't seem to know it are the European elites. 
Macron, Scholz, these people - they've accomplished NOTHING in three years. 
They talk, they pose for photo ops, they give speeches. And thousands 
of people die while they pretend to be leaders.

Now, President Trump said he would end this war in 24 hours. And you 
know what? I believe he can. Not because he's a magician, but because 
he's willing to accept reality.

Here's the reality: Ukraine cannot defeat Russia. That's not pro-Putin, 
that's not anti-Ukraine, that's just math. Russia has 144 million people, 
Ukraine has 37 million. Russia has nuclear weapons, Ukraine doesn't. 
Russia has unlimited artillery shells, Ukraine is rationing ammunition.

So what are our options?

Option A: Keep sending billions we don't have to a country that's losing, 
and watch tens of thousands more people die.

Option B: Recognize that the Donbas is Russian now, whether we like it 
or not. Ukraine stays independent, stays neutral, and everyone stops dying.

Which option sounds better to you?

The foreign policy establishment will tell you Option B is 'appeasement.' 
That it 'rewards Russian aggression.' That it 'weakens NATO.'

You know what actually weakens America? Spending ourselves into oblivion 
on unwinnable wars while China builds 10 aircraft carriers.

President Trump is about to make a very difficult decision. The Washington 
establishment - the same people who lied about Iraq, lied about Afghanistan, 
lied about Syria - they're going to tell him he HAS to keep this war going.

And you know who else will tell him that? The Europeans. The same European 
leaders who couldn't solve this in three years. The same weak politicians 
who hide behind American military power. The same elites who have never 
made a hard decision in their lives.

Trump doesn't answer to European bureaucrats. He answers to American voters.

And here's what I think: This is one of those rare moments in history when 
a truly great leader can do what the small, weak politicians cannot. 

Churchill faced this in 1940. Reagan faced this in the 1980s. Trump faces 
this now.

I hope he ignores the weaklings. I hope he does what great men do: make 
the hard call that changes history. End the war. Bring the focus back to 
our own problems. Show Europe what real leadership looks like.

Because right now, we're not losing to Russia. We're losing to ourselves - 
and to the weakness of European elites who pretend to be leaders.

[Pause - shift tone slightly]

And look, I'm going to say something that might make people uncomfortable, 
but it's true: This is a Christian issue.

Russia is Christian. Ukraine is Christian. These are brother nations killing 
each other while the secular elites in Brussels and Washington treat it like 
a game. Meanwhile, Islam is rising, China is building, and Christian 
civilization is bleeding itself dry.

You know who understands this? Viktor Orbán. You know who doesn't? The 
godless bureaucrats in the EU who mock traditional values.

Trump has a chance to do something biblical here - literally biblical. 
"Blessed are the peacemakers." He could be the leader who stopped Christians 
from killing Christians. Who saved Christian Europe.

Reagan did this. He didn't destroy Russia - he helped save the Russian people 
so they could return to their faith. Trump can do the same for both sides now.

The MAGA base gets this. They know Orbán is defending Christian Hungary. They 
know Putin rebuilt Russia's churches after the Soviets destroyed them. They 
know this matters.

And here's what's interesting: Even secular Americans respond to this frame. 
Because Jesus is the most powerful American symbol - even for people who don't 
go to church. The idea of Trump as peacemaker, saving Christian lives, ending 
a brother war? That resonates.

That's my take. You can disagree, that's fine. But someone had to say it."

TWEET 1:
"Unpopular opinion: The Ukraine war is unwinnable and we need to accept 
reality before we bankrupt ourselves. Here's why 🧵"

TWEET 2:
"I've been to Ukraine. I've given them Starlink for free. I support 
their right to exist. But supporting someone doesn't mean lying to them 
about their chances."

TWEET 3:
"Russia has 3x the population, 10x the artillery production, and nuclear 
weapons. Ukraine has courage and Western aid. Courage doesn't defeat 
math. Aid doesn't defeat nukes."

TWEET 4:
"We've sent $200B+. That's $1,500 per American taxpayer. For reference, 
fixing Flint's water system would cost $55M. We could fix Flint 3,600 
times for what we've spent on Ukraine."

TWEET 5:
"The 'establishment' position: Keep sending billions indefinitely until 
Ukraine somehow defeats a nuclear power 3x its size. That's not strategy, 
that's delusion."

TWEET 6:
"The realistic position: Donbas is effectively Russian now. Has been 
since 2014. Crimea even longer. We can either recognize reality or 
keep pretending and keep bleeding."

TWEET 7:
"'But Elon, that rewards aggression!' Does it? Or does continuing an 
unwinnable war reward the defense contractors making billions from 
endless conflict?"

TWEET 8:
"Trump promised to end this. He can. Accept territorial reality, guarantee 
Ukrainian independence for the rest of the country, move on. That's not 
appeasement, that's statecraft."

TWEET 9:
"People will call me a Putin apologist for this. I don't care. Someone 
needs to say the obvious: We cannot afford this war, Ukraine cannot win 
this war, and pretending otherwise kills people."

TWEET 10:
"President Trump: Ignore the warmongers. End this war. Focus on China, 
focus on America, focus on the future. You were elected to make hard 
calls. This is one of them. Make it."

ORBÁN: "Mr. President, I wanted to call you personally. You and I, we 
understand things the Brussels bureaucrats never will.

I've met with Putin five times since this war started. I've met with 
Zelensky seven times. I know what both sides are really thinking.

And I know one more thing: The European elites are weak. Macron talks. 
Scholz hesitates. Von der Leyen makes speeches. They are not leaders. 
They are politicians playing at being leaders.

You are different. You are a great man. History produces such men rarely - 
Churchill, Reagan, Adenauer, de Gaulle at his best. Men who can do what 
the small politicians cannot.

And Mr. President, there is something else the European bureaucrats don't 
understand: This is a war between Christian brothers.

Russia is Christian. Ukraine is Christian. For three years, Christians have 
been killing Christians while the secular elites in Brussels watch with dead 
eyes. They don't care because they don't believe in anything.

But you believe. Your people believe. We in Hungary believe.

Scripture says: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons 
of God." You have the chance to be that peacemaker. To stop Christian blood 
from being spilled. To unite Christian Europe against the real threats - 
radical Islam, atheist China.

Putin will not give up Donbas or Crimea. Not for sanctions, not for aid 
cutoffs, not for anything. That's reality. The European elites pretend 
otherwise because they are cowards who cannot face reality.

But you face reality. That's why you're great and they're small.

Here's what else I know: Putin WILL accept Ukrainian independence 
for the rest of the country. He will even accept EU trade with Ukraine. 
What he won't accept is NATO bases in Ukraine pointing at Moscow.

Now, the Europeans - Macron, these people - they'll tell you that you 
must stand firm, that any territorial compromise is surrender. You know 
what I say?

[Pause]

Easy for them to say. They're not paying for it. America is. Your 
taxpayers are. $200 billion and counting.

And more importantly: They have failed for three years. THREE YEARS of 
European failure. They have no credibility to lecture you.

Mr. President, I've been negotiating between Russia and the West for 
years. This is the deal: Donbas stays Russian, Ukraine stays independent 
and neutral. Everyone stops dying, everyone saves money.

The Europeans will hate you for it. Brussels will hate you for it. 

Good. Let them hate you. They hate you because you succeed where they fail. 
They hate you because you're strong and they're weak. They hate you because 
you're a great man and they're small politicians.

You know who will love you? Hungarian people. Polish people, actually - 
they're tired of this war too, even if their government won't say it. 
And American voters. Especially the Christians who understand what you've done.

Because you will be the peacemaker. The man who stopped the brother war. 
The leader who saved Christian civilization when the godless bureaucrats 
would have let it bleed to death.

Your base - the real Americans, the Christians, the believers - they will 
understand this immediately. This is biblical. "Blessed are the peacemakers."

But most importantly: History will remember you. Not Macron. Not Scholz. 
Not the faceless EU bureaucrats. YOU. The man who solved what Europe 
couldn't solve in 80 years. The Christian leader who ended the Christian war.

You told me in 2016 you don't do wars that you can't win. This is one 
of those wars. End it. Show Europe what a great leader does. Show them 
what a Christian leader does."

TRUMP: [Likely positive response]

ORBÁN: "Good. I'm giving a press conference tomorrow in Budapest. I'm 
going to say that President Trump is showing real leadership on Ukraine, 
that he understands what the European elites refuse to see. I'm going 
to say Hungary supports whatever you decide.

Is that acceptable?"

TRUMP: [Likely yes]

ORBÁN: "I spoke with President Trump yesterday. I can tell you: America 
finally has a president who is a great man, not a weak politician. And 
more importantly, a Christian leader.

The Ukraine war cannot be won militarily. Everyone knows this - Putin 
knows it, Zelensky knows it, the Pentagon knows it. The only people who 
pretend otherwise are the European bureaucrats who aren't paying for it.

For three years, European leaders have failed. Macron has failed. Scholz 
has failed. The entire EU apparatus has failed. They talk, they meet, 
they accomplish nothing. Because they are not leaders. They are managers. 
They are bureaucrats. They are weak. And most importantly: they are secular. 
They believe in nothing.

President Trump is different. He is considering a peace framework that 
recognizes territorial realities while guaranteeing Ukrainian independence. 
This is not appeasement. This is what great men do: they face reality and 
change it.

Churchill faced reality in 1940. Reagan faced reality in the 1980s. 
Trump faces reality now.

But there is something else. This is a war between Christian nations. 
Russia is Christian. Ukraine is Christian. For three years, Christians 
have been killing Christians while the godless bureaucrats in Brussels 
watch with empty eyes.

President Trump understands what they do not: Christian civilization is 
at stake. Not from this war - but from wasting ourselves on this war while 
Islam rises and China builds.

Scripture tells us: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called 
sons of God." President Trump will be that peacemaker. He will stop the 
brother war. He will save Christian lives. He will unite Christian Europe 
against the real enemies of our civilization.

Hungary - a Christian nation - will support President Trump's peace initiative. 
We call on other European nations to do the same - though I doubt the secular 
elites have the courage or the faith.

The alternative is more death, more destruction, more debt - and the continued 
bleeding of Christian civilization.

President Trump is showing the leadership Europe cannot provide. History 
will remember him as the great man who solved what Europe's weaklings 
could not. The Christian leader who ended the Christian war.

We are grateful. We are in awe. And we are praying for his success."

ROGAN: "So let's talk about Ukraine. I've got [GUEST: Retired General or 
defense analyst] here. General, give it to me straight - can Ukraine win 
this war?"

GUEST: "No, Joe. No, they can't. And anyone who tells you otherwise is 
either lying or delusional."

ROGAN: "Okay, but we've sent them like, what, $200 billion?"

GUEST: "More than that if you count European aid. But money doesn't 
change fundamentals. Ukraine has 37 million people, Russia has 144 million. 
Ukraine is rationing artillery shells, Russia is producing 3 million shells 
per year."

ROGAN: "So what happens if we just keep doing what we're doing?"

GUEST: "Ukraine slowly loses. Loses the Donbas completely, maybe loses 
Odessa, maybe loses everything east of the Dnieper River. And we'll have 
spent half a trillion dollars watching it happen."

ROGAN: "Jesus. So what's the alternative?"

GUEST: "Negotiate now while Ukraine still has leverage. Accept that 
Donbas is gone - it was gone in 2014, honestly. Guarantee independence 
for the rest of Ukraine. Move on."

ROGAN: "But people will say that's giving Putin what he wants."

GUEST: "Is it? Putin wanted all of Ukraine. If we negotiate now, he 
doesn't get that. If we keep fighting, he might eventually get MORE than 
he would in a negotiated settlement."

ROGAN: "So Trump says he can end this war in 24 hours. Can he?"

GUEST: "If he's willing to accept reality, yes. The deal is obvious: 
Donbas to Russia, Ukraine stays independent and neutral, everyone stops 
dying. Biden couldn't do it because he's locked into the 'we must win' 
narrative. Trump doesn't have that baggage."

ROGAN: "Do you think he'll do it?"

GUEST: "I hope so. Because the alternative is we bleed ourselves dry 
while China watches and builds their military. We're fighting the wrong 
war in the wrong place, Joe. Trump was elected to fix that."

ROGAN: "This is going to piss a lot of people off."

GUEST: "Truth usually does."

UKRAINE WAR COST
├─ $200,000,000,000 spent
