Wasn’t it Biden who waved Putin into the Ukraine when he ok’d a “minor incursion” by Russia?
The Russians are probably going to launch a winter offensive.
They probably intend to cut most of Ukraine off from the EU.
They can’t spare troops for occupation duty so they had to let Kherson go.
Correct and Biden continues to give Ukraine the bare minimum of support.
Ukraine is being forced to fight with one had tied behind its back. We need to remove those restrictions so Ukraine can end this war quickly.
And not one keybowrd warrior REMF will have contributed a single thing.
Correct and Biden continues to give Ukraine the bare minimum of support.

How does ten of billions of dollars constitute “the bare minimum” of support? Just how many dollars is the U.S. taxpayer supposed to pour in?
The US elite like the Russians severely underestimated the Ukrainian will and ability to resist.
If Trump would have remained President there would have been no invasion and maybe 250,000 people would still be alive.
"But the whole thing was a sham, with results not seen since Saddam Hussein Joe Biden held “elections” in which he regularly received over 100% of the vote."
“plebiscites”
Ask the people in countries just west of Ukraine about Soviet era “Ukrainian” “plebiscites” if you are brave.
Turks still await the return of invaded territory seized by Russia long ago that Ukrainians never gave back to the successor of the Ottoman Empire.
they have inferior troops, inferior weapons, inferior logistics and inferior funding
and in 2 weeks the EU cuts off all Russian oil imports
Russia simply cannot win this war, they are desperately trying to force Ukraine into a “peace” deal
Putin can’t afford to lose, and just as the USSR in WWII, he can afford to lose a million or so personnel if that’s what it takes to overwhelm Ukraine.
Putin doesn’t have to worry about optics or popular support any more than Stalin did. The only way Ukraine will win is if Putin is replaced, and that will take either a natural death or a palace coup, like the one that is happening as Disney as we type—and unlike at Disney, Putin can whack all his opponents before they get a chance to overthrow him.
I don’t understand. These people are in a war zone and they are wearing brand new winter coats.
Russia tried to win with about 300,000 troops.
Ukraine, a country of 40 million, drafted its military age males.
Ukrainian troops outnumber Russian troops in the region.
The Russians no longer have that capability. How'd their last winter offensive work out in February and March?
Open borders for the Ukraine
Not all the US taxpayer money going to Ukraine goes to kickbacks to FTX, going to Uniparty wins over Conservatives patriots in the midterms.
Some of the money does apparently make it to purchasing the best in clothing and outfits for war images and imaging.
If Soros were winning the propaganda would not be necessary.
George is willing to fight to the last Ukrainian life.
I believe you are mistaken.
Putin is not Stalin.
He doesn't have the secret police forces Stalin did.
He doesn't have the ideological commitment Stalin had from his troops.
He doesn't have the control over information Stalin had.
He doesn't have the population of young men Stalin had.
“funding”
Russia can pay in gold.
“logistics”
Russia has trucks. In 1945 Russia supplied troops invading Berlin from factories in the Urals.
This would be over if oil was only $10 per barrel, Natural Gas was dirt cheap and the Chinese and Russians couldn’t sell their stuff anywhere. Then give Ukraine actual modern weapons like F-15/F-16, M1 Abrams, Patriot missiles, Tomahawk missiles, ect, and direct them to cut off Crimea. (I also give Taiwan and Poland nukes). I also direct Taiwan to shoot down any Chinese aircraft in their ADIZ.
