“...so that he could have an excuse for the rising gas prices.”
And advance his evil Green Energy Agenda, and bankrupt America.
Biden has been aiding and abetting the Russians since they put Sandinista Daniel Ortega into power in Nicaragua back in the 1980s.
Biden said that nothing would be done if there was a “minor incursion” after weeks of repeatedly predicting that the Russians would be invading. The whole thing has been a giant setup from the beginning. It was always about funneling cash from the taxpayers to the Democrats using Ukraine as a money laundering operation.
Everyone including Putin has been getting big bucks from this massive swindle. The Russians took in over $100 Billion more in 2022 than in 2021 for their energy products. This has never had anything to do with the wellbeing of the Ukrainian people.
The US first attempt was in 2008. 2014, the most obvious coup in the history of coups was engineered by Biden and the Dept. of State (Nuland). After that, it is now fully admitted that the West intentionally deceived with Minsk I and II.
Bidet was provoking Russia (poking the bear with a stick) way before Ukraine was invaded. Anyone here with sense saw it.
Biden totally provoked this, duh. I remember talking about it with my friends before Russia invaded, we were all wondering WTF bidiot was doing.
Remember when the USG through the media was giving the specific day when he was going to invade? Totally boxed Putin in, left him no outs.
sorry not forgiving Trump for guzzling the "coolaid" even though he had no choice at the time
Hilary wanted a war with Russia over Syria but luckily she didn’t cheat enough and Trump won
Deep State/NeoCons/whatever else got so mad about this lack of war that they cheated extra hard the next time so Biden got installed and we finally got a war with Russia that so many hacks were dreaming of.
I totally agree with Trump here.
Biden isn’t scary enough for Russia, that helped Russia in its decision to invade sovereign Ukraine.
Trump was the toughest guy in a generation against Russia, that’s why Putin never budged a finger when Trump was in office
************
Trump will talk to anyone on the globe.
However, his unpredictable nature is what kept the Chinese and Russians ‘up at night.’
Both China & Russia prefer the usual, which the Biden administration has given them “in spades.”
True, all engineered under Biden. Trump ties this completely avoidable conflict to intentional actions of Biden - astute counternarrative.
Trump did not say Biden provoked Putin into invading Ukraine, but created very favorable conditions for it.
And lets not forget that the Russia-Ukraine conflict began with the annexation of the Crimea in 2014 in violation of the Budapest Memorandum during the Obama-Biden administration, making our current involvement nonsensical.
I dunno...there is a long history of Putin using surplus oil/gas revenue to advance his territorial expansion goals.
It was all to distract from Hunter’s Laptop revelations IMHO.
Gas prices falling, so if he did, the gambit worked. That’s aside from the inhumanity of using the Ukrainian people to advance a geopolitical agenda, but it did work.
Biden may be plain lucky or somewhere a deep state calling the shots planned for this outcome.
If Russia wins or achieves partial win over Ukraine its a fail for foreign policy however.
I agree !
“The Russians took in over $100 Billion more in 2022 than in 2021”
Of course. Does it seem that both countries are using war as a fund raiser. The armors that Russia has used seems to be left overs from WWII, and we can see they are not trying very hard to win. UKraine also is not fighting in defense either. It’s been an unholy crime syndicate of Nazis since during and after WWII.
Biden removed Trump’s sanctions on Nordstream2. Biden spent 2021 partnering with Putin to nuke up Iran. Biden abandoned Trump policy to strengthen NATO.
In actuality it was Biden and Democrats disinterest in Ukraine that encouraged Putin to launch his genocidal rampage that has become the biggest war in Europe since WW2. Biden has led from behind and done the minimum required at every step. Putin sees this weakness and continues his irrendist project to reconstruct the USSR.
Well...DUH!
Pulling Ukraine away from the Russian sphere of influence has been the Deep State’s policy since the fall of the USSR. NATO has edged inexorably closer and closer to Russia, and Ukrane is really the last piece that matters.
I do not accept that Russia has some sort of right to control and exploit Ukraine. Nor do I accept the Nazi idea that Russia can invade and annex parts of its neighbors if they have large ethnic Russian or pro-Russian populations.
But Russia and its mafia-like leadership does feel threatened by moving NATO up to its borders. Russia also feels threatened by the prospect of Ukraine becoming a rival oil/gas supplier to Europe, thus undermining Russia’s main source of revenue. Putin’s well-known m.o. is to create wars using local pro-Russian elements, split off areas, invade to protect them, then annex the regions.
It does not require sympathizing with Russia to know what would happen if Russia was pushed to the brink this way. Putin stated it repeatedly. Biden WANTED this war. It doesn’t take much to push the Ukrainians’ anti-Russian buttons — he’s just using them under the self-delusion that he is a brilliant global strategist, getting in the last lick of the Cold War. Biden publicly stated he wanted a “porcupine strategy” wherein the US/Europe would arm Ukraine for a long, bloody struggle to break Russia. Biden has goaded and lured both sides into a horrible blood-letting that needn’t have happened, but it sure is profitable for some.
Meanwhile, China looks at the US/West destroying Russia’s military, and laughs. Do we have to make it any clearer that Russia can’t really hold Siberia if China wants to take it?
Heck of a cynical job, Brandon.
Trump is on target and people here should look carefully at his characterization of Biden’s remarks.

As most of Biden’s Ukie war cheerleaders are Democrats, no one is looking at the facts.
