What and how Trump posted on Truth Social:Trump: Why isn’t Europe giving more money to help Ukraine? Why is it that the United States is over $100 Billion Dollars into the Ukraine War more than Europe, and we have an Ocean between us as separation! Why can’t Europe equalize or match the money put in by the United States of America in order to help a Country in desperate need?As everyone agrees, Ukrainian Survival and Strength should be much more important to Europe than to us, but it is also important to us! GET MOVING EUROPE! In addition, I am the only one who speaks for “ME” and, while it is a total mess caused by Crooked Joe Biden and the Incompetent Democrats, if I were President, this War would have never started!
notice the difference? Conradson's editing changes what the reader is supposed to think Trump meant. Trump was not opposing aiding Ukraine. He was opposing Europe dragging its feet on arming Ukraine on their."Why isn’t Europe giving more money to help Ukraine?

Quite a few Republicans and MAGA who presume to understand Trump need to pay attention to when he wrote I am the only one who speaks for “ME”.
How is Trump coming up with $100 billion? By including weapons, etc., sent to some of the NATO countries, expenditures on added troops sent to Europe, etc.? Because otherwise you can’t get there (to $100 billion).
TGP has substantial ethics issues from a journalism standpoint. Jim Hoft has been busted attributing comments from people that never made the comments, and also narrative shaping, which you just busted them on.
Anything at TGP needs to be verified.
No way anyone could read Trump's actual statement and say he categorically came out against this funding package
