Trump jokes ending war in Ukraine boosts his odds to get into heaven

 08/19/25

President Trump on Tuesday quipped that bringing an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine would help him get into heaven, joking that he heard he’s “at the bottom of the totem pole.”

Trump called into “Fox & Friends” following a meeting a day earlier at the White House with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and seven top European leaders. The group discussed how to end the war in Ukraine, which has been raging since Russian forces invaded in February 2022.

“I want to end it. You know, we’re not losing American lives, we’re not losing American soldiers. We’re losing Russia and Ukrainian, mostly soldiers. Some people, as missiles hit wrong spots or get lobbed into cities,” Trump said on Fox News.

“But if I can save 7,000 people a week from being killed, I think that’s a pretty — I want to try to get to heaven if possible. I’m hearing I’m not doing well,” he continued. “I hear I’m really at the bottom of the totem pole. But if I can get to heaven, this will be one of the reasons.”

Trump and European officials discussed potential security assurances for Ukraine as part of a peace deal that would prevent future Russian aggression. The president provided few details on what that would look like during his appearance on Fox News, other than to note that Europe would likely bear the brunt of those security efforts.

“There’ll be some form of security,” Trump said. “It can’t be NATO, because that’s just not something that could ever, ever happen.”

Trump also indicated Ukraine would likely need to cede some land as part of any final agreement, though he has repeatedly said it will be up to Zelensky to sign off on territorial concessions.

“I hope President Putin is going to be good. If he’s not, that’s going to be a rough situation,” Trump said. “And I hope Zelensky, President Zelensky, will do what he has to do. He has to show some flexibility also. The thing is a mess.”

Trump has said he is helping to arrange a potential face-to-face meeting between Putin and Zelensky in the near future.

  1. Taco is old and starts being afraid of what’s beyond life. But, taco is a pedophile, he is a traitor, a pathological liar, an extreme narcissist, a convicted felon, and a lover of murderous dictators. If he got to go to heaven, I’d eat my hat. He’d have to do a complete turn around, and this now.

      • The verse is not meant to be a blanket prohibition against all forms of judgment. Scripture, including other parts of the New Testament, acknowledges the need for discerning between good and evil, evaluating character, and even exercising church discipline. However, Matthew 7:1 highlights the dangers of hypocritical judgment, where one criticizes others while overlooking their own flaws.

  2. Some people, as missiles hit wrong spots…………………..He still does not get it………………….Putin hits on purpose on civilians 24/7……………

  3. I believe it could have been this show, Trump claimed he was War Hero. The administration showed Trump in a military uniform, one that he wore when he was enrolled in the New York Military Academy (a school that helped wayward adolescents). Many were offended by his comment and many saying (real war heroes who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan) that real War Heroes never call themselves war heroes. He’s out of control IMO. By the way Sir Red, I’m not judging just stating facts.

  4. “We’re losing Russia and Ukrainian, mostly soldiers. Some people”

    So, soldiers aren’t people?
