Trump promises 'severe consequences' if Putin doesn't agree to end war (CNN)

CNN reports severe consequences if Putin does what is expected. https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/trump-presidency-putin-ukraine-summit-08-13-25

Putin must be quivering in his tiny little shoes. Of course it's quivering with anticipation of making a fool of the Felon-in-Chief yet again, but still ... quivering.

But ... just what might these severe consequences be? Any thoughts? A few of mine (nsfw sorry; mind bleach may be needed):

But he might have laundered a lot of money through him! Good point.

Surprised TSF was willing to go up to the roof. Perhaps it was a message to Putin that he wasn't afraid of windows.

that during the Watergate crisis they disconnected Nixon from the launch codes.

And he was a whole lot saner than Trump. And we still had some responsible people. I don't see Hegseth doing that.

Shouts of 'fake news' and 'illegal news' will follow anyone that says differently from the White House propaganda.

Soon he'll be publicly musing about how great it was that Israel could target and kill the Al Jazeera correspondent. He'll be plainly envious and itching to behave just like his hero (that would be Putin).
