Biden about to get caught flat-footed on another crisis: Ukraine war–generated global food shortages
American Thinker ^ | 14 Mar, 2022 | Monica Showalter

So who has confidence in Joe Biden's ability to navigate the coming grain shortages as a result of Russia's Ukraine attack?

Anybody want to take bets that Joe Biden will know what to do when the next crisis hits? His presidency is one crisis after another, and his record, well...

The next crisis is bound to be a doozy.

Based on Russia's horrible war against Ukraine, grain and fertilizer prices are skyrocketing, and shortages are on the way. Ukraine's and Russia's customers already are hoarding supplies. Based on the little-discussed stories out there, this crisis is bound to be felt in all countries and looks certain to happen. Joe is nowhere to be found on this, as we shall shortly see.

With its rich black soil, Ukraine's always been known as the breadbasket of Europe. The story is obvious enough in this land rendition of the Ukraine flag.

Ukraine and Russia are huge exporters of grain and fertilizer, accounting for about 30% of world exports.

Actually, the some wealthy Chinese are following the lead of wealthy Americans and investing in land, a hard asset that can’t be destroyed.

Your fears are unfounded

I’d rather hang out with neither, but if it came down to having to make a choice, I would not hang with people who hated me for being a white European.

Plandemic: Control the people’s health.

Famine: Control the people’s access to food.

Gas prices: Control the people’s mobility.

Wonder what is next?

He’s not flat footed. This was all by design. Control the food, control the people.

Biden is and always has been a shell of a person! How is O_B_A_M_A spelled?

The president of Ukraine is Jewish and the descendant of Holocaust survivors. If he really thought the ASOVs were real Nazis, we would have heard about it from him.

Since we haven’t, I’m going to assume they aren’t as Nazi-like as you think.

What I’ve been able to gather is that they are anti-globalist, and against Third World immigration, pro Ukrainian nationalism and anti Russian.

Biden is going to claim Putin did it all even though we have heard for many months that a food shortage was being plan.......er mean, on the horizon.

Everything is happening is made to happen. It is how they are pushing the collapse of America.

I know people on FR and those that are alert elsewhere can see this happening, but so many people have no clue what is being done to them.

Since Travis McGee never answered any of my questions (mainly how does he know that “contractor” was “American” or why Putin is going after a whole country and not just the “Nazis” that had been concentrated in one area) I can only assume he is just fine being lead around by the Putinista wing of the “conservatives” on Freerepublic.

No, he’ll keep his in reserve until everyone else converts their farms. Then he will be able to sell his products at top dollar

Just head over and sign up with your Azov Brigade Nazis, who are an officially recognized component of the Ukrainian military.
