President Donald Trump has shared a Truth Social post of commentary from a Tuscon-based wedding DJ who praised him for playing Russia and Ukraine âlike a master chess player.â
Michael McCune of Arizona has found viral fame after Trump shared excerpts from a Facebook post he shared Friday following the showdown in the Oval Office with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Trump shared McCuneâs words with his nine million Truth Social followers Sunday.
McCune is from Benson, Arizona, a town outside of Tucson, and has a wedding DJ business, according to his Facebook profile. He also describes himself as a âlifelong practitioner of martial arts, strategy and philosophy.â
The DJ, who frequently posts his political musings on his Facebook page, theorized that both Trump and Vice President JD Vance âknew exactly what Zelensky was going to doâ and claimed the wartime leader would use the meeting âto make a power play.â
Trump shared some of Michael McCuneâs words on his Truth Social platform ( @realDonaldTrump/Truth Social)âBoth Trump and Vance anticipated this,â McCune said in the 600-word post, which outlined why he believed Zelensky was outmanouvered.
Trump shared the final part of McCuneâs analysis.
âNow, Zelenskyy will have no choice but to back down and accept Trump's terms,â McCune concluded. âBut hereâs the genius partâTrump is actually protecting Ukraine without dragging the U.S. into war.
âBy negotiating a mineral deal, Trump ensures that Americans will be involved in Ukraineâs mining industry. This prevents Russia from launching an invasion, because attacking Ukraine would mean endangering American livesâsomething that would force the U.S. to respond.

In the end, Zelenskyy will have no choice but to concede, because without U.S. support, Ukraine cannot win a prolonged war against Russia,â McCune said.
His post finished by telling his followers not to underestimate the president. âIn this game of chess, heâs 10 moves ahead of everyone,â McCune added.
The Independent has contacted McCune for comment.
McCune thanked Trump for sharing his thoughts in a follow up post and agreed with another Facebook user that it was âan honor.â
His profile has since been inundated with comments both praising and criticizing him.
