Ukrainians for Trump is even more mystifying than women for Trump, or gays for Trump, or basically any group that isn't white, cis, male, heteronormative, and some combination of stupid and evil for Trump.

Takes all kinds, I guess.

He’s more or less promised to cut off Ukraine if he gets in. I genuinely don’t understand how any Ukrainian who’s not just a crazy Russophile (which I imagine would not be a large proportion of the population) would even begin to consider Trump.

it is possible i’d guess to believe that if ukraine gives up the occupied territory then russia will simply stop, and i’d guess their possition then is simply to stop further loss of life - and that trump will “stop the war” by forcing ukraine to do that

shit take imo, but not totally out of the blue

That’s a deeply unrealistic endgame scenario, tbh

And even if he hadn't made that abundantly clear, he's obviously in bed with Russia. Like... it's completely mystifying why any Ukrainian (who doesn't hate Ukraine) would want to vote for Trump.
