Sounds fair to me.
I’d expect NATO planes to shot be down violating Russian airspace.
Reporter asks: "Mr President, do you support NATO countries shooting down Russian aircraft in their airspace?"
President Trump: "Yes I do."
HEADLINE: "
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that NATO countries should shoot down Russian aircraft if they enter NATO territory!!"
Altering the statement from "would you support" to "we should do it!" within a space of just 3 words.
If I flew a combat airplane or any other for that matter, into your airspace I would expect to be shot down.
If I came into your house uninvited I’d expect to be shot.
All the same.
What Trump did today at the UN was to call for a return to world order. Stay in your lane, dont’ take advantage of US or others, don’t be stupid.
Will Putin test this over the US ?LOL
What do you think about it?
Vlad has openly threatened to use nukes so there’s no reason why DJT souldn’t make this threat.
Would be a happy outcome if Putin stops these incursions because of Trump’s words.
So much for the guy who promised to stop the endless foreign wars.
Stating the obvious.
The reciprocal is also true.
All is fair in War.
Obvious yes. It’s a deliberate provocation and the line needs to be drawn. If one gets shot down, that will end it.
Go Trump !
If they don’t it’s Ukraine II putin can’t swing two wars he’s down for the count on the first one.
Not who/what we voted for.
Putin has put NATO on notice. This is not 2022 nor 2023, or 2024. Russia invited NATO to bring it yesterday over the increasingly hostile rethoric of warmonging coming from Britian, France and Germany. Russia has put their missile forces on alert now, and they are prepared for the EUropean conflict agianst Russia.
Trump wants to somehow provide all the weapons and have the EU fight Russia since the US General Officer corps has lost the war they directed in Ukraine.
Maxi-pad, do you actually think the EU leadership is doing anything to actually support Ukraine, or do you actually understand that these leaders are using the war in Ukraine to distract their own people form the recessions in their own countries. The first political trick for domestic problems to focus the public on external conflicts.
Ukraine serves that purpose the EUropeans at this juncture. Everything they are promising Ukraine is 4-7 years out with the exception of Troops. Russia will defeat the EU. In fact the Duma has recognized the EU as a warring fraction similar to NATO rathar than an EU government - but as a military focused government without a mission absent Russia to kick around.
No more olives from the Trump orchards extended to Mad Vlad in the hopes of a reciprocal offer for peace. In essence Trump walking away from a bad deal.
Remember when we used to chase Russian planes away from US airspace on the regular?
Pepperridge Farms remembers. Not sure Communists even know HOW to change...
That is not what he said.
Reuters made it seem like he wanted to start a war.
He said “yes I do”
