Do you think the Democrat Party will start a war w/Russia before the election? [vanity]

This has been bugging me for a couple of weeks now, and with the Democrats sliding in the polls I am wondering more and more about it.

DO you think the Democrats will start a war before the election?

If they do, we all better get down and pray like we’ve never prayed before that Trump wins.

Possible, intentionally or unintentionally.

To threaten a cyber war with Russia could cause them to make the final decision.

I think there has been a plan all along to start the war with Russia under this administration.

No.

What would be the point?

A politically motivated war would be unpopular.

No one would fight it and I can’t see it enhancing Hillary’s election bid.

They will walk right up to it and possibly blunder into it. I am not sure that Putin will agree to an airplane exchange; they shoot down a few of ours and we shoot down a few of theirs. We are unfortunately talking about people whose ambitions are vastly ahead of their intelligence or skill.

no, but I believe that the only reason they a risking the lives of American servicemen in Iraq is to make positive headlines in an election year — or, more probably, to prevent negative headlines in an election year.

same crap they did in Afghanistan in 2010 and 2012.

Why would the party of fellow travelling communists start a war with the mothership? Makes no sense.

I doubt it. They think they have this wrapped up.

Hillary will be Putin’s doormat. She is like Obama and her top priority is defeating the GOP. If she steals the election the GOP will be in civil war and her priority will be domestic issues. She’s already planning another “reset” with Russia.

War with Russia is so nonsensical that it would be wildly unpopular. Obama and Clinton are bluffing and everyone in the world, outside of their sycophants knows it. They will still be faking after the election if the she-devil wins. If Trump wins, Obama becomes a neutered joke.

I’ve been hearing all this talk of ‘war with Russia’ since the Fifties.

It’s a sham.

The professional pols and inside-the beltway types know they can cow the public with the Russian bogeyman, but they also know that Russian leaders are the only people on Earth who can really and finally take away their offices, salaries, perks, privileges, nubile young secretaries, and limos.

They’ll quite obviously never allow that to happen; if they won’t permit the constitution and the electorate to do it, they won’t jeopardize it with Putin or anyone else. They’ll cave on anything before they sacrifice their royal lifestyle.

The Rats would risk a nuclear conflict if they thought it would win them an election.

No. A vaporized silicon valley will flip CA to Trump.

Probably. Under their strategy of orchestrated crisis.

Neither can I but they may see something radically different such as the ability to claim they have more military experience to fight the war that was “started by Russia hacking US Govt. emails and threatening our national security”.

Or even worse, Obama may choose to stay in the White House longer. I mean, they’re blowing up Republican political offices now so the argument that “the American people would not stand for that” seems a bit unbelievable at this point.

We didn’t have the likes of Obama in the WH in the fifties.

A Hillary no fly zone in Syria against Russians will be viewed as an act of war by Russia.

Vladimir Zhirinovsky, a Russian lawmaker known to be a staunch ally of Putin, said that Trump was the only person able to de-escalate dangerous tensions between Moscow and Washington

He said Americans should vote for Donald Trump as president next month or risk being dragged into a nuclear war. If they vote for Hillary, there will be Hiroshimas and Nagasakis everywhere.

No! They will probably wait until Jan 2017, so that they can get Kerry (Vietnam) aboard, Yellen to increase interest rates , Lew to close the markets, EPA to stop oil production, and Roberts to take a picnic in Ft Marcy park.
