If you wondered why the Orange Defiler suddenly "promised" Zelensky his own Patriot factory, after having withheld all American help since his second reign began and telling Zelensky he didn't have the cards, this could clear things up.
The US military had lost nearly 30 Reaper drones as of May 2026, including some destroyed on the ground by Iranian counterstrikes, according to Air & Space Forces Magazine. The Air Force acknowledged such combat losses as reducing its Reaper fleet to about 135 drones.
Woopsie... Better start building new ones then, right?
The defense company General Atomics stopped manufacturing Reaper drones for the US military in 2025. But a General Atomics executive told Breaking Defense that the company is interested in pursuing the newest drone contract offering from the US military, and seemed to suggest it would provide a cheaper successor to the Reaper.
"If you pay us a lot of taxpayer money, we'll build you fantastic new drones."
"Great, hurry!"
It envisions delivery of “20 mission-ready aircraft” by 2031.
"Wait, what?!"
So that's what the Tantrum Toddler is up to: he wants Zelensky's drones.
Karma is a bitch, Donny, this time Zelensky does have the cards 😂
