Sigh. Fine, I'll repeat myself while filtering the irony out: while it's true that POTUS has better access to knowledge than anyone, it's still up to him what to do and believe. You'd think that wide access to the internet would kill and bury many falsehoods, but this isn't how it works. Trump campaigned specifically on his opposition to corrupt, hostile branches of the government. That he doesn't appear to take much advantage of his special access, or of a google search for that matter, shouldn't be surprising
Trump is a well known oddball, an oddball of the same age Biden was when he started his first term, I might add. Did you not elect him to crush the deep state, banish drag-queens from schools, deport every illegal immigrant or whatever and defy hostile parts of government?
Here's your based, unyielding chieftain. He has already figured everything he needs out, as he was meant to. Did you expect him to listen to something so silly as secret services? Down with that woke nonsense!

it took Boris Johnson LARPing Churchill to persuade him into not signing the first reasonable deal Russia put on the table. This is all a matter of public record.
footnote made in tiny script: best we know, the reasonable deal was "we invaded you once, then again, but if you cut your army and promise to not enter mutual defense alliances we pinky promise to not invade you again"

there's no hope left, the Russians could hit anyone lower down in the government with the same weapon.
It's not that bad. If you're not a near senile boomer with notoriously little concern and knowledge about foreign affairs, your gullibility should be lower.

[religion] I am constitutionally unsuited for.
In the same boat, but even if I don't have it in me to believe in any religion, I firmly believe that something outside of crude reality that we inhabit is necessary for any of this, including suffering, to make sense. It's basically what people mean by spirituality, that there is a larger context we have no direct access to now, but in which we and the rest of the world are embedded.
For those of us who can't simply have faith, what we can rely on boils down to humility&hope.

bride seemed happy
what about the groom?
If only there was some kind of event in Zelensky's biography that could let us judge whether or not he's inclined to take the exile route when his life is in danger
