I doubt that Biden is ordering anything more than another pupping pop.

Those aren’t Russian soldiers. They are immigrants.

Let's just hope that nothing requires a quick decision from Biden, it takes hours to explain the simplest things to him.

The decrepit fool expects us to think he’s tough and powerful. One finger joe doesn’t know what he’s playing with. Putin understands who he’s dealing with. He thinks of biden as no more threatening than a gnat.

joe - close our borders. Forget about Russia/Ukraine.

Biden Diplomacy

Call your counterpart a “killer.”
Send planeloads of arms to Ukraine
Send two warships into the Black Sea
Offer a public meeting with “the killer”
When he ignores you, declare “no meeting”
Institute more (useless) sanctions for “election meddling”
Withdraw warships from Black Sea

Does this seem logical or consistent to anyone?? I bet even Putin is wondering WTF is going on.

I wonder who expects to fight for the USA after labeling all the straight white guys as racist. Maybe he can talk the illegal immigrants, Antifa, and BLM to sign up.
