U.S. Representative Don Bacon of (R-NE) broke from Donald Trump on Saturday with a grim reminder about what the congressman says could be Trump's "legacy."

Bacon, who has spoken out about Trump's attitude regarding Ukraine and the war Russia has imposed on it, over the weekend weighed in on a recent proposal from the Trump administration to end the brutal foreign war by forcing numerous concessions from the victim nation.

Over the weekend, Bacon took to social media to push back against that plan, posting an image of a wasteland with three distressed eagles and the words, "In the war between Ukraine and Russia, the first to surrender was America."

He issued a grim warning with the image, writing, "This will be President Trump’s legacy if he forces this surrender plan on Ukraine."

Ex-Republican insider Stuart Stevens added, "It will be the Republican Party's legacy."
