The Deep State is putting its only real political opponent (DJT) in prison, which is effectively a death sentence. It’s that bad and far gone at this point.

I read today that at least 50,000 Ukrainians have lost at least one limb in this insane proxy war.

How long before the regime yanks the Secret Service protection from Trump after they imprison him?

I read somewhere that the Secret Service goes in with him if he's imprisoned.

If it comes to all that, you'll know that we're next on the Uniparty menu.

Correct. Which is why it needs to end now.

“That’s a big price to pay to protect Hunter & Co.”

Yes, it’s no more complicated than that and the fact a proxy war was allowed to be started by Congress tells you all you need to know about Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and goodness knows how many black ops over the years. It’s insanity and thievery from all sides.

You could pick 5 random people here on FR and let them run the show and we would be better off than the morons in Washington.

All we have is Trump. Not the fat pig from New Jersey, the oddball from Florida or the homo Pence.

Why didn’t he just take that in the begining, and save the World the trouble, instead of thinking he could take all of Ukraine?

Lindsey is oblivious.

He gets roundly booed at a Trump rally in his home county in South Carolina, and he doesn’t care that his constituency wants an end to this war madness.

Y’all miss the real point.
Russia has shown to be militarily weak on tactics
and logistics.
A good portion of their difficult to replace weapons systems
are gone.
USA demonstrated how to fight a war, in the middle East.
Russia demonstrated they can barely fight
a war in their back yard. They are even losing Belarus.
Ukraine should accept the peace deal that the Saudis recently defined. And then The Ukrainians should go guerrilla. Russian are weakened and build on that.
They don’t have the resources to hold together what they have anymore.
Ukrainians now have guns now so no more Holodomor.
Live to fight another day.

Really? Has most of Ukraine been taken over by Russia. It is a deadly stalemate that needs to end, only the Deep State isxwinning. Not Russia or Ukraine. The Deep State wants the dying to go on in a no win war like Vietnam.

This was the equivalent of the Union vs the Confederacy. The Confederacy had the bravery, but the outcome was never really in question. The Union had more men, more ships, more money, and more manufacturing.

Rhett, is that you? Rhett?

How did we demonstrate how to fight in the Middle East?

We left Iraq a failed state and left Afghanistan with our tail between our legs and the Taliban back in control.

Very true - but God willing, the Neocons will be FINISHED after this debacle.

The OBVIOUS question is whether the US can survive their damage (Europe’s already been defeated, but it’s not yet over in the US).

The dark blue reflects two month’s gains during Ukraine’s counteroffensive.


The Russians have even made made gains in eastern Ukraine too

You are kind of slow aren’t you.
Our job was to free Kuwait. We did and that was it.
Successive wars left Iraq a mess but it was never defined that we fix their stupidity.
Afghanistan failed because of political correctness
demanded by Democrats.
Remember these weren’t declared wars, they were illegal
and political.
Kuwait we had a well defined goal. The follow on conflicts we had only the shifting sands of politics. And Democrats can FU a wet dream.

So, your metric of US success in the Middle East was a week-long war to liberate Kuwait 30+ years ago while ignoring the 20+ years of wasted blood and treasure that followed it.

Whatever works, I suppose.

Yeah, those in DC know the Ukraine is done for but they’ll keep sending them money because they are addicted to the money that they have been scamming from the billions of our tax dollars they have sent and will continue to send to Ukraine. It’s a DC thingy.
