The last guy to talk to him.... this report is from Axios. I hope the WH won't let him talk to Putin. Just tell him it is Democrats who are calling him if Vlad calls.

1 big thing — Trump: Ukraine can win

NEW YORK — President Trump said today that he believes Ukraine can "win" the war against Russia — an extraordinary 180-degree shift in his position on the war, Axios' Barak Ravid writes.

  • "I thought [solving the war] was going to be the easiest one because of my relationship with Putin," Trump told reporters today. "Unfortunately, that relationship didn't mean anything."
Why it matters: Trump had claimed for months that Volodymyr Zelensky "doesn't have the cards" to win, and pressed the Ukrainian president to make territorial concessions to Russia in order to reach a deal that would end the conflict.

After a meeting with Zelensky at the U.N., Trump even suggested that Ukraine might be able to take back all the territory it has lost since Russia's invasion.

  • Trump wrote on Truth Social that Ukraine may be able to "take back their Country in its original form and, who knows, maybe even go further than that!"
Between the lines: The notion that Ukraine could seize Russian territory — or even Crimea, which Russia illegally annexed in 2014 — is likely to infuriate Putin and draw nuclear saber-rattling from pro-Kremlin war hawks.

  • Trump praised Ukraine's "Great Spirit" and said everyday Russians don't understand the true cost of the war.
