Putin doesn’t care. It is in his interest to continue the war, and that is exactly what he will do.
Sounds like escalation not making peace. But that’s what you want, right?
That would be doubling down on Biden's failed policies.
This would only make sense of the tariffs in question are ones Trump wants to implement anyway.
And place your bets if it is a Biden or Obama judge that halts any sanctions.
Excellent. El Trumpo!
Enough of this war on Russia. Why aren’t we sanctioning the EU nations that are banning candidates who are friendly to Trump?
This is nonsense from March 13th.
You post it as if it’s relevant today.
Jeez…
It’ll have the same Boom Boom Hannity result too. The only thing left to sanction is hot air. I’m all for that. The Russians will never notice. The sanctions to date have been a total bust against Russia while destroying the economies of Europe. Fortunately, the severe damage the sanctions caused you and me only lasted one summer. Remember how you getting gouged at the pump in the summer of ‘22 brought Putin to his knees. Didn’t you tell us that killed him two or three times over as well?
Big Deal, Russia has been dealing with Sanctions one way or another for 80 years.
What Trump and NATO can’t wrap their minds around is that Russia has pivoted to the East with BRICS, Eurasia and China, they don’t need the West for anything.
I have been reading about this for about a year and frankly if I knew how I would invest in that area for the long term future.
As long as your pos isn’t getting anymore money or weapons, and he’s not, that’s fine.
Hey marcus how do you send these messages from the front line..i mean you CANT be crying like a little b...h every day about the ukraine plight without actually being over there fightin tooth and nail to gain back mother ukraine’s land, right?
Biden was asleep at the helm for four years. Half-assedly the US has put sanctions on Russia in the past to the point that it no longer used the USD for trade. Trump needs Russia, Brizal, India, Saudi’s, Indonesia, Thailand and about 2/3ds of the world’s population to stop trading via Brics.
The US and our citizens have since WWII accrued a peace dividend in the use of the USD returning a penny or two for every dollar in circulation to our annual economy. Biden and Obama screwed that up.
Trump doesn’t know if NordStream is needed to save the EU or not. Without cheap energy the EU has had to pay 3.5x to the US for NG and other fuels bought from Russia. The EU cannot manufacture or heat/cool homes at the set rates in world trade; once the Ukraine war happened, the loss of energy from Russia put those economices into a tailspin.
Russia has moved on from the USD because of necessity. Trump tried to lure Russia by dropping sanctions, but Biden’s buddies who want war refused to drop EU sanctions against Russia.
The bottomline is that every US citizen going forward will find the USG provides little or no Reserve Currency Bump just from countries using dollars.
The Sanctions have become a form of self-isolation; Russia is never going back to Swift based trade full scale; that ship has sailed. The US and Russian economies will be polar opposites. China is going to be in the Russia sphere; India, Brazil and others will find that because their have low standards of living that they do not fit in the US/EU overpriced trade zone, but in the second world with Russia and Brics.
The threat of more sanctions does what? In actualities of scale, the US has already cut Russia off from our USD based trade. The talk of sanctions only serves top remind second/third world countries how the US has treated the world in the past with the USD and sanctions - they are going to join Brics.
Russia oil tankers being targeted but no one is reporting that the Russians are now targeting EU shipping in return.
Ukraine cost the US too much. Biden burned the Petro-Dollar. Biden out-sanctioned USD based trade. There is nothing Trump can do but to realize that HE is the leader of a Nation at War with Russia; a war HIS country chose for Russia using Ukraine. Russia trusts the US about as much as they trust Zelinski - they know us and what to expect from us and they expect the worse.
