“It would make Dems heads explode if President Trump chose RFK Jr. for his running mate. OMG.”

__________________________

While that would never happen, and for good reason, It would be strategic to nominate RFK Jr to be Ambassadore to Ukraine.

Actually us hippies still believe in Make Love not War.
However if you get in a war, the worst thing you can do is drag it out by incrementalism. Biden missed the window to not have this war, and now he’s done the worst thing you can do, which is bleed a country ( Ukraine) to death while fighting a “proxy” war. If you have access to outside the US media you will read that the Russians believe that they are at war with NATO and the US. Spin it how you will, but that’s the way the Russians are spinning it domestically. I have a long time democrat friend who actually believes that if the Russians us a nuke in Ukraine, we will use one back and that will be the end of the nuclear aspect of the war. What an idiot. There was a game in the 80’s called nuclear escalation. The game usually ended the round after the first nuke was used. Everyone in the game goes into use em or lose em mode and launches everything.

The path we are on seems irreversible.

Even Trump knows if he makes it to the WH he will inherit whatever is passed on maybe the nuked up USA.

If the US is stupid enough to do that we will then be in a war with Russia. Of course that would be a perfect deflection for taking the heat off the Biden crime family.

They haven’t forgotten Vietnam. They still remember the huge profits and bribes from that war. A coworker was in Nam. At one point, his job was to haul brand new school buses, sent from the US, out to sea and let them sink.

This is a war that could go hot... Our military ‘leaders’ should stay with what they understand. Cool uniforms for pregnant women and ‘rights’ of sexual weirdos...

Next step? They and especially “contractors” have been there for years. I would bet a few dozen have been killed already.

Its obvious, isn't it? I have no doubt the real planners in DC also believe the exact same thing.

The Vietnam hippies who protested the Vietnam War and burned their draft cards are now in power wanting the USA to get involved directly in the Ukraine war so they can profit off the destruction.

Don Henley had a great take on this cultural change all the way back in the 1980s:

I thought the lesson of Viet Nam is that you don’t cut off aid and let the bad guys win. Our soldiers actually won the war. It ended in a peace treaty. Then North Viet Nam invaded and the Democrat congress cut off aid to South Viet Nam.

https://www.nytimes.com/1974/05/07/archives/senate-rejects-vietnam-aid-rise-transfer-of-266million-for-arms-is.html

https://www.nytimes.com/1975/03/21/archives/senate-move-on-to-end-saigon-aid-bipartisan-bill-would-cut-off-all.html

BTW In 1975, Biden was among 16 Senators to vote against extending aid, although the measure passed in the Senate. The bill was then defeated in the House and aid was cut off.

It would also make Republicans heads explode and guarantee a Trump loss.

I remember at the Gulf War rallies the counter protesters chanting NO MORE VIETNAMS! Now most of them are chomping at the bit to get us in Ukraine.
🎶WAR! UH! what is it good for, absolutely nothing! Ah ha ah ha🎶
🎶well come on all of you big strong men (and those of any other gender), PedoJoe needs your help again, got himself in a terrible jam, way down yonder in Ukraine 🎶
🎶All we are saying is give peace a chance 🎶
War hurts children and other living things".
They were full of 💩 then and they're full of 💩 now

Advisors had done fine in Vietnam since 1950, even when they were killed, it was JFK who ended the “advisor” role and introduced mass troops.

Yes. they forgot. They never learned in the first place.

The fools are bird brains (don’t mean to insult birds).

Sure. This is heading directly to the same outcome as all the others.

What was it that Enstien said about fools and doing the same thing over and over??

They were in Vietnam long before Kennedy was POTUS.............

A friend, who was in our Navy at the end of WWII, was learning Mandarin* while we were still battling the Japanese and Germans.

After the end of WWII he finished his Mandarin classes and spent the winter/spring in what was Viet Nam using his new Language skills.

“The standard literary and official form of Chinese based on the Beijing dialect, spoken by over 730 million people.

“Mandarin Chinese”!

They/the Chicoms were also in Vietnam long before Kennedy was POTUS.............

The war is 19 months old.

NATO supplies the weapons. Ukraine fights. Russian military gets so shot up it has to spend the next two or three decades rebuilding.

No US combat boots have been on the ground ground for the last 19 months. No need for them now or the future either.

Deal with it.
