Trump Wants $500 Billion BACK From Ukraine! (Jimmy Dore)

U.S. President Donald Trump has decided that American support for Ukraine will come at the price of $500 billion worth of mineral riches.

In an interview with Fox News, Trump said the U.S. should get a slice of Ukraine’s vast natural resources as compensation for the hundreds of billions it has spent on helping Kyiv resist Russia's full-scale invasion.

“I told them [Ukraine] that I want the equivalent like $500B worth of rare earth. And they've essentially agreed to do that so at least we don’t feel stupid,” Trump said.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss just how screwed Ukraine has been by this war, from the lives and land lost to the later costs yet to be extracted from the very soil comprising the Eastern European nation.
