Politico writes, "Four senior members of Donald Trump’s entourage have held secret discussions with some of Kyiv’s top political opponents to Volodymyr Zelenskyy, just as Washington aligns with Moscow in seeking to lever the Ukrainian president out of his job."

"The senior Trump allies held talks with Ukrainian opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko, a remorselessly ambitious former prime minister, and senior members of the party of Petro Poroshenko, Zelenskyy’s immediate predecessor as president, according to three Ukrainian parliamentarians and a U.S. Republican foreign policy expert," the report continues.

Tymoshenko has confirmed that her team is talking "with all our allies who can help in securing a just peace as soon as possible."

Trump should visit Ukraine a few weeks before the election and do a campaign event with the guy.

If Ukraine has their own version of a Logan Act, it sure looks like it's getting violated.

I know this is a crazy idea, but why don’t we allow the Ukrainian people to choose their own leaders without our influence and then live with their decisions.

Not our hemisphere, not our concern.

Putin could end the war at any minute of his choosing. Why is he not labelled a war monger? Why is no one calling on Putin to end the war?

Well, Zelenskyy held a meeting with a Democrat delegation who advised him not to accept Trump's deal, so.....

I agree. Everything since the 2014 Maidan Coup when we overthrew Yanukovych has been illegitimate

I know nothing about these Ukrainians but Politico using the adjective “remorselessly ambitious” makes me think the chick is pretty cool

I'm fine with this if it is to pressure and work out a framework of peace and to get pressure on Z to make a deal. Even if it is to pressure Ukraine for an election. That is getting a little iffy, but I'm OK with it. This all is to put pressure on Z and get him to the table.

But if it is to push elections and they get behind a pro-Russian candidate create another 2014 in the opposite direction. I'll have a problem with that.
If I didn't agree with it in 2014, I won't agree with it now trying to instill a pro-Russian leader.

Use this to push Z to the table or hold elections. Then let the people decide.
I just hope they aren't doing Putin's bidding and trying to get a pro-Russian guy in there. I don't think the WH is doing Putin's bidding and hopefully this is just creating big pressure on Z.

The problem is that, if they hold elections soon, Z will just be re-elected. So I don't see a lot of promise
