Or what? He won't give Putin his weekly ball gargle?

[-] ScrambledEggs@lazysoci.al 51 points 3 days ago

Or he'll extend it by another two weeks.

Withholding sex is so petty

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 74 points 3 days ago

Just like all the tariffs he keeps setting deadlines on before backing down? Yeah, this statement means nothing.

TACO

Also he rapes underage girls.

Or else he resets the timer to a random range between 24 hours to two weeks for another weak non-credible threat.

[-] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago

Or else he will retract the statement then make it again later like he does with tariffs.

Ah, the infamous two weeks deadline. The same two weeks he would eradicate ISIS, fix American healthcare, create peace in the Middle East etc. etc.

Which means in two weeks he will never mention it again and act like he never said it.

Money quote from the article:

For its part, Russia had largely shrugged off Mr. Trump’s previous 50-day deadline, noting that past deadlines set by Mr. Trump or his team had come and gone with little consequence.

[-] 0ops@piefed.zip 15 points 2 days ago

Lol what happened to "24 hours"?

[-] Wolf@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago

Same thing that happened to "..and Mexico will pay for it!"

[-] RunningInRVA@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

… or else.

Fucking dipshit. 🙄

Dude is like the construction crew from the movie the money pit with his constant refrain of two weeks.

That's an old reference but it checks out.

[-] athairmor@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

They have to stop in two weeks so Trump can focus on Infrastructure Week. Remember Infrastructure Week?

[-] realitista@lemmus.org 5 points 2 days ago

This is 2 week deadline #4 or #5 for Russia to end the war now? I'm losing track.

[-] knexcar@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Why is everyone talking about tacos? What does a Mexican food have to do with Trump and Putin?

[-] portnull@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I was wondering the same

It stands for Trump Always Chickens Out

The famous paper dragon

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 days ago

President Trump said on Monday that he was “disappointed” with President Vladimir V. Putin over the war in Ukraine,

Abbreviating a patronymic to a single letter is a very weird thing to do.

[-] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

Oh, Vladimir V. Putin. I thought you were referring to the other Putin.

Better not be. VI isn't ready yet, IV got cancer and it goes without saying that I through III are... unavailable.

[-] mikenurre@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago

Time for more TACO(s)

[-] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Or no more orange blowjobs for Putin.

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Oh hey, it's that magic time period somebody clearly explained to Donald once when he was younger!

[-] monotremata@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

He keeps hearing that fortnights are all the rage with the kids these days.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 days ago

fortnite, fortnight is 14 days.

[-] monotremata@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

That was the joke. The link I was replying to was talking about how Trump always says everything will be happening "in two weeks."

[-] figjam@midwest.social 4 points 2 days ago

This is a repeat from 2 weeks ago.

[-] st3ph3n@midwest.social 4 points 3 days ago

Aren't they already sanctioned out the ass? What more could additional sanctions possibly do?

[-] OpenStars@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago
[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 days ago
