Curiously, more media attention has centered on President Donald Trump’s peace brokering between Russia and Ukraine than one might have imagined.  I say curiously, because media largely ignored the war for most of the past two years—when the carnage was most severe … when Joe Biden was president and under whose watch the war began.

After the Zelensky summit Monday, media’s first take was highly critical of President Trump, with headlines like “White House Meeting Ends With Few Signs of Progress on Ukraine” as the New York Times put it.  But that’s not what the European participants were saying. To a “t” the leaders were saying things like “We’ve probably had more progress in ending this war than we have in the past three and a half years.”

The war started under Biden and the media didn’t fault him for that, or his inability to stop it. Curious how it’s blaming Trump as he’s actually on the cusp of putting an end to the carnage.
