Don’t deflect to that now.
There’s no end in sight for the Ruble going up. And Biden has done a whole lot more than that. He’s devastated the US economy, no end in sight for stagflation, no end in sight for economic woes in the U.S.

1 Year ago one can follow the Ruble until February this year, it drops and has been skyrocketing upwards since March.
Tell the whole story. Be honest here on FR...
What this signifies is just not the loss of one single war. This signifies the end of US self appointed role of “World Police”. For a long time the US has lacked moral authority for such a role and now it is shown it also lacks military authority.
Unipolar is done. Petro dollar is done. Reserve currency is done. Those who support and justify the US as World Police roaming the globe passing out weapons will have difficulty adjusting to reality. Who cares what they think. Those people are stupid and selfish and wrong. To hell with them.
Biden and all those cheering the demise of Russia bla bla bla don't realize that it's “us” that is fu#$ed also.
Gas and oil shocks right at the tail end of the Covid upset (screwing with the Saudis and Russians while doing everything possible to restrict domestic production), massive government social spending, then massive war spending, pissing off folks that are turning around and dumping the dollar. Then some geniuses here talk about how Putin will be assassinated in 2 years, that the Ruble will be worthless soon... Not sure what planet these folks live on, but the empty shelves are here, the inflation is here, and the signs of a recession are here... We're in trouble, and these are just the beginning signs.
Just wait a few more months. The economic slowdown is happening already... Wait until winter when the need for energy increases. Wait until the supply chains deplete and the full effect of fertilizer, wheat and other food shortfalls on a global scale become more than just some philosophic idea.
Biden is a power hungry old fart that wanted to finally be the “big guy.” This senile old fool has led us from near unprecedented prosperity and peace under Trump into economic ruin and a proxy war with Russia...
Realize, even all this Covid idiocy was Biden and the Democrats playing politics in an election year. They were the ones pushing for the lock-downs, social distancing, etc. He has caused allied nations to be under enormous pressure as they face long term internal instability from food and energy shortages may that be our allies in Europe or India, Pakistan, Egypt... He screwed up Afghanistan, not because we left, but how we left (in haste in order to meet a political time line). He has taken a nation of 41 million that was prosperous and climbing and turned them into a basket case with millions displaced, a crippled economy, and insecurity/instability, Ukraine.
The US is in a nose dive right now and we're taking a bunch of folks with us.
These are the people running the show:

Geniuses like Buttigieg...
You have a guy at the top that isn't right in the head, and under him a bunch of political hacks (Milley, Garland...) or children that are trying out what they learned in college but have no practical experience in.
On the current trajectory nothing good can come. Are we changing course regards fossil fuels? Nope. Are we changing course regards antagonizing Russia? Nope. Are we changing course regards getting raped by China (unfair trade and IP theft)? Nope. Are we fixing the S. border? Nope. Are we changing course regards new taxes on CO2, more government regulations? Nope.
Things aren't going well, right?
Now name me one course correction we're making?
This fool of a President, and his court of jesters, are going to run us into the ground.
Forget Putin. It's our own leadership that is taking us down.
