Some fun math-

even if I was a Russian sympathizer, I’d be fed up with Putin by now.

Imagine if NY with 145million people found between $180 and $250billion dollars lying in the road. (the same as Vlad’s found money due to climate juiced energy prices if he was getting market prices)

Instead of spending the money on the welfare of the state-

they chose to engage in some war that 2 1/2 yrs later has roughly cost $225 billion dollars and accomplished next to nothing.

It would be insane.

(apparently, I’ve overstated the size of the Russian economy for 2 1/2yrs, it is smaller than CA, TX and NY and all this time I had it pegged at 1 1/2 times NY)

We feel the same way about your DNCs energy, farm/water cuts, and loss of the Keystone pipeland. Democrats and Biden supporters never look in the mirror. Imagine what a gallon of milk, gas or a dozen eggs would cost without Biden’s war on American energy.

This is peanuts compared to how much the US dumped into two Iraq wars, a nation-building project in Iraq, and Afghanistan. Are we really so self-righteously blind that we’re gonna excoriate the Russians over the costs of this conflict?

You don't even perceive the irony of what you're saying, do ya?

No one ever said Ivan was particularly bright but no one ever said he wasn't brutal.

I can't believe that after almost three years of this Kafkaesque nightmare the Russkies and the Ukes haven't gone to the UN and asked for someone to broker a ceasefire.
