“Do you really think that India, China and those other countries would choose trade with Russia over trade with us?”
China certainly will trade with Russia, India likely will. And the other countries likely will.
Otherwise they would have already joined the ‘sanctions’ against Russia.

Your Putin has 2 weeks to get with the program.
When Trump drops the Ukraine and little Zel, you're going to soil yourself.
When all is said and done, Vlad still holds all the cards. Western arms, ammo, Sanctions, Swift removal, threats, long range missiles, stealing Russian sovereign wealth funds, all have failed.
Over forty western nations have allied against Russia, pulled every dirty trick, and are still unable to stop the war…..how can one think President Trump will have any success?
The Ukrainian war will end when Vlad accomplishes his stated goals, which basically were a promise to his people.
Just like Russia and Ukraine, everybody just keeps repeating their same tired and futile propaganda as the war continues.
Red China is our enemy, and always has been. It wouldn’t have been if Harry Truman hadn’t been a moron.
That will change when the price becomes too high. The US is a larger market that they will not, and cannot afford, to loose.
Exactly.
Team Trump. F Putin.
“When all is said and done, Vlad still holds all the cards. Western arms, ammo, Sanctions, Swift removal, threats, long range missiles, stealing Russian sovereign wealth funds, all have failed.”
Russia is going broke.
Their pension fund has been drained to pay for Putin’s two-week war. He has sold off the gold.
Russia is so far gone that they need Iran to prop them up!
“He should stop funding Ukraine.”
So how much he is sending them ?
Putin has no intention of ending the war anytime soon. If he has any intentions at all, it would be to widen the war
“That will change when the price becomes too high. The US is a larger market that they will not, and cannot afford, to loose.”
Sorry, but resources count more. They’ll still have 6.2 BILLION people to buy their products.
Dollars buy things, not people; and we have the dollars.
“Dollars buy things, not people; and we have the dollars.”
We have -$37T, what does that buy us?
