SEN. JEANNE SHAHEEN: If Trump wants a Ukraine deal, he should reread his own book
Since his first day in office, President Donald Trump has mismanaged negotiations over an end to the war in Ukraine. More than 100 days later, innocent Ukrainians are still dying while the president gets played by Russian President Vladimir Putin – illustrated starkly by the barrages of drones and missiles continually aimed at Ukrainian cities as Trump posts online. It's good to hear Trump finally express some frustration toward Putin and admit that his negotiating tactics aren't working, that, as he says, Putin is "just tapping me along, and has to be dealt with differently." The reasons for this aren't complicated. Instead of increasing his leverage over Russa, Trump offered concession after concession before talks even began.
