At long last, pieces in our time.
Biden manufactures fake crisis to distract from disasters and to make himself look like a tough winner. Putin plays along and gets a bunch of concessions and incentives from Biden for playing along with the charade and giving Biden a fake “win” .
Not having heard the news about the proposed summit, I saw the pop in the futures and thought the market was actually relieved to see war unleashed (!)
I remember the day in 2003 when the US shock-and-awe attacked Iraq. Before then, there was of course all kinds of worry and consternation as to what would happen, and on attack day, I think the DJIA was down just shy of 300 points, which was a HELL of a lot more % wise than 300 points in 2022. After 45 minutes of explosions on CNN, the DJIA was up about 500. It was nearly a 750 point swing.
stocks in diaper makers have crashed though
‘Biden manufactures fake crisis to distract from disasters and to make himself look like a tough winner. Putin plays along and gets a bunch of concessions and incentives from Biden for playing along with the charade and giving Biden a fake “win”’
BINGO. Good executive summary.
Dow futures are up about .50%. Hardly a “surge.”
Putin will rob Biden blind. Or most likely just buy him off.
Meeting with an Alzheimer’s man would be embarrassing.. Putin is no dummy.. he is getting a close up of what he will deal with when he decides to take advantage.
Easiest prey any snake ever had.
They’re down over 1%! What f’n “surge”?!
” Putin plays along and gets a bunch of concessions and incentives from Biden for playing along with the charade and giving Biden a fake “win” .”
it’s definitely in putin’s interest to help prop up sock puppets like dementia joe and kamala ... having trump back is going to be a nightmare for leaders like putin ...
You are correct.
The nation with the greatest interest in this affair is Taiwan. If these negotiations fail and Russia despite the sanctions and rhetoric militarily invades and takes what it wants in Ukraine, it will put enormous pressure on Xi from many to invade and conquer Taiwan. China will seem puny if Russia is able to achieve its goals by force but China does nothing against Taiwan. Xi knows an invasion across 90 miles of open ocean may fail and be a disaster for China but he will be under enormous pressure by many to take action.
Neocons will breakout in a dance!
You looking at old news?

Amazing how Biden knows the date and time of a Russian invasion.
If you see Liz Cheney with her "O Face" on, you'll know.
