Missiles for Everyone! How Trump is Using NATO /John Mearsheimer

The discussion centers around the depletion of U.S. weapons stockpiles due to aid sent to Ukraine, particularly long-range systems like ATACMS. Former National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan admitted that the U.S. initially withheld these weapons because they were critically low and needed to maintain their own deterrence capability. Even after supplying some, their battlefield impact was limited. Similarly, additional weapons like Germany's Taurus or UK's Storm Shadow missiles are seen as insufficient to change the tide of the war, while accelerating Western stockpile depletion.

Trump, meanwhile, claims he wasn't fooled by Putin but believed a deal had nearly been reached multiple times—despite Putin clearly stating that Russia would not agree to a ceasefire without its core demands being met. Commentators argue Trump "fooled himself" by misunderstanding or ignoring Putin's consistency on the war's terms.

The broader point made is that no "magic weapon" or ceasefire negotiation will alter the course of the war, which Russia is currently winning. The Russians are portrayed as diplomatically savvy, appearing reasonable while continuing their offensive. Conversely, Western leaders, including Trump and Zelenskyy, are seen as misreading the reality on the ground—particularly the imbalance in manpower, resources, and resolve.
