If Trump is determined to force through a peace where Biden was not, he can do it
President Trump aimed to broker a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine by adopting a tougher stance on Ukraine and a more conciliatory approach towards Russia. However, after Russia rejected the ceasefire proposal, Trump withdrew from mediation, signaling a shift in U.S. policy.

The U.S. has signed an economic cooperation deal with Ukraine, including military aid, which contradicts Putin's demands. Trump’s potential increase in arms supply to Ukraine, combined with proposed sanctions on countries buying Russian resources, may pressure Putin to consider a ceasefire.

Breitbart: 'Rust' Director Regrets Movie, Trashes Alec Baldwin's Reality Show: 'Wish I Never Wrote the Damn Movie'
'Rust' Director Regrets Movie, Trashes Alec Baldwin's Reality Show: 'Wish I Never Wrote the Damn Movie'
Director Joel Souza expressed regret over making the film "Rust," stating he would have prevented it if he knew it could have saved cinematographer Halyna Hutchins' life. He chose to complete the film to honor her family's wishes, despite feeling repelled by the idea initially.

Alec Baldwin, who shot Hutchins during filming, maintains he did not pull the trigger, though FBI analysis suggests otherwise. Baldwin's criminal trial for involuntary manslaughter was dismissed, while armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed is serving an 18-month sentence for her role in the incident. Souza has no relationship with Baldwin and criticized his reality show.
