Trump isn’t a warmonger. He will negotiate an end to stop the dying.
You will never see him do anything that would cause a nuclear war.
Israel can get a better deal on US Weapons from the Taliban.
What do you meant by this?
Here we go again.
Ukraine ping
Trump will likely cut the Gordian knot and give Ukraine everything it needs to win. It comes down to one thing. If Putin wins, he becomes the big man in the Trump era. Now, if we were in the Age of Imperialism, Trump could one-up Putin by, say, conquering the Americas, and come up on top. But the American appetite for territorial conquest died with that last gasp of the Spanish American War - the Philippine-American War. So the way Trump stays on top is by denying Putin his victory. Similarly, any Xi attempt to conquer Taiwan during Trump’s tenure will run into Trump’s determination to prevent any foreign leader from one-upping him while he’s in charge.
“Drill Baby, drill.”
If we continue to export, baby, export, then drill, baby, drill will only help Deep State.
I don’t believe that Trump wants to go down in history as the president that lost Ukraine. He will support Ukraine with effective weapons and intel.
Trump will figure out and develop a plan by giving somebody like Elon Musk a contract to build all the drones for Ukraine.
Trump knows that the MIC is not interested in the war ending soon so he will sidestep the bureaucracy in the MIC.
I would be ok with escalation.
Yes they invested big time in the feds spending on Ukraine.
Biden winks
Your fellow Ukraine supporters will do anything to keep Trump out of office. The people you call pro Putin are really pro American people who want to fix their own country instead of wasting hundreds of billions in a corrupt lost cause like Ukraine. Putin isn’t destroying America, it’s the enemy in our white house and halls of congress. I’m sure you saw them waving Ukrainian flags. Do you really think those blood suckers care about Ukraine? Sure they do.

What Ukraine needs is jet fighters in quantity. Hand over hundreds, and the availability for all kinds of strike missions would go through the roof. Strike fighters are essentially a fire brigade asset. A hot sector where you’re warding off an enemy advance or trying to advance against the enemy can benefit from judiciously employed air strikes.
Part of the recent Russian successes come from Putin’s decision to use his strike fighters more aggressively. He is losing a dozen top of the line fighters monthly, but making some gains. Ukraine needs fighters to conduct similar air strikes against Russian positions.
Footage released by both sides exaggerates the impact of drones. Only 10% successfully hit their targets, and the impact is limited, due the payload being limited to under 20lb pounds of HE. Whereas even the smallest air-dropped bomb holds 250 lbs of explosive material.
This dude builds rockets for a living.
There is room for development of cheap, mass produced drones with 200-500 kg payload capacity
That will be a real game changer, as it will tilt the playing field towards players with massive manufacturing capabilities like China
Hear, hear!!
Excellent post.
Musk builds BS towers for a living and fills them with money grifted from the government.
The Ukrainians made great strides in an informal environment. Musk’s major talent is recognizing smart people, giving them resources, and letting them run with it.
