President Trump just took a big step toward ending the bloody war in Ukraine. After a tough phone call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, Trump secured a 30-day pause in attacks on Ukraine’s energy sites. This is a win for American leadership. Senator Ted Cruz praised Trump’s efforts, saying the war needs to end with Russia clearly defeated. No more dragging things out like Biden did.
Cruz blasted Biden for causing this mess in the first place. He pointed out Biden’s weak handling of Russia and Iran let Putin get bold. Biden gave Russia a free pass on their pipeline and let Iran sell deadly drones to Moscow. This put Ukraine in a deadly trap. Cruz called it “madness” to fund both sides of the war. Strong leaders don’t let enemies walk all over us.
The Biden team’s failures forced Trump to clean up their mess. While Trump pushes for peace, Putin still demands Ukraine give up its weapons and friends. That’s a non-starter for Cruz. He says America must stand strong. Letting Russia win would hurt our security. Biden’s mistakes can’t be repeated. Cruz wants Ukraine armed to defend itself, not stuck with empty promises.
Cruz didn’t hold back on Ukraine’s president either. He slammed Zelensky for picking fights with Trump instead of working together. Attacking our president in the Oval Office was a disaster, Cruz said. Ukraine needs friends, not drama. Trump’s focus is ending the war, not feeding Zelensky’s ego.
Putin’s “peace” offers are just tricks. He agreed to stop bombing power plants—after already destroying most of them. Now he wants Ukraine helpless and cut off from aid. Cruz sees through this. Real peace means Putin loses, not gets rewarded. Trump knows better than to trust dictators. Strong deals, not surrender, will keep America safe.
Some liberals whine about helping Ukraine. Cruz shut that down fast. This isn’t about charity—it’s about stopping Russia and Iran from teaming up against us. Biden’s cash handouts to Iran funded drones killing Ukrainians. That’s crazy. Cruz wants to smash the Russia-Iran alliance. No more taxpayer money for our enemies.
America comes first. Cruz made clear we shouldn’t send troops to die over there. But arming Ukraine lets them fight their own battles. That’s common sense. Biden failed to protect our interests. Trump is fixing it by putting America’s needs ahead of feel-good globalism. Patriots support peace through strength, not weakness.
The choice is stark. Back Trump’s tough talk or repeat Biden’s disasters. Cruz stands with Trump’s plan to end this war the right way—with Putin humbled and America secure. Weakness invites chaos. Strength brings peace. That’s the lesson Biden never learned.
