He is a desperate lunatic who knows the "Great Counteroffensive" is unlikely to expel the Russians.

He would prefer the entire world burn.

Act III is beginning.

[stinkerpot65]

We are at war with Putin because he won’t allow perverts in his country.

America is the evil empire now.

[dforest]

His idea is to drag us into this with NATO (mostly Americans as usual) The neocons just can’t get any more excited than when they see troops coming home in body bags.

[Trumpisourlastchance]

That’s an easy choice. Protect our borders here. And we are being destroyed by the enemies within.

[Tijeras_Slim]

If Russia wins, I think they’ll be reluctant to get froggy for a while.

[Mariner]

I’d sure like to see a US President try to explain to the American people why we must engage existential nuclear war over Latvia.

Or, Ukraine for that matter.

[Secret Agent Man]

ALL sides in this exercise to kill off more “dangerous” white men and reduce america’s arsenal of equipment, are run by lunatics.

Collapse of NATO

I find it very hard to believe that you are not a supporter of Russia which is our historic enemy and a clear aggressor.

The way things are going we may soon be faced with the collapse of Ukraine resistance and the need for direct NATO intervention. Probably starting with an air offensive that would be absolutely devastating to the Russians. They would not even have a chance. Their only effective response would be to counter with missile attacks, possibly armed with micro nuke warheads to destroy US and NATO assets at their bases and staging grounds - first in the Ukraine and then the many of which that will be outside of Ukraine.

Trump and DeSantis are correct. The rest of them are wrong. Not our business.

“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday that a loss to Russia...”

Sounds like he’s finally listening to his generals.

[CapandBall]

Collapse NATO, which it should have when the Warsaw Pact dissolved 30 years ago.

[Jim Noble]

could ultimately force the U.S. to choose between the “collapse of NATO” or going to war

Put me down for "collapse of NATO", please.

[Kazan]

Collapse of NATO sounds good to me.

[oblomov]

Collapse of NATO sounds good to me.

[isthisnickcool]

Someone give Lindsey Graham a weapon and stick his ass on the front line over there.

[Steely Tom]

I guess no other European countries are capable of lifting a finger to defend themselves. It’s all on us.

[Right_Wing_Madman]

Ukrainian loss could force US to choose between ‘collapse of NATO’ or war

It's much better to teach a man to fish than to give him fish. NATO thinks otherwise. The United States has been giving fish to Europe for decades.

NATO has been a farce for 30 years. It is less a military alliance and more a military dependency. Like all welfare programs, the recipients are hurt most. The current NATO security arrangement that has no prospects of long-term survival.
