Trump is looking at the situation realistically and dispassionately, apart from a concern for life and peace. You seem to see everything concerning Ukraine as the comic book version in which the US, NATO, and Ukraine are heroic angels and the Russians diabolic scum. That’s the version of reality that’s always sold to the public before the murder and mayhem that’s called war is inflicted. You can see better, if you’re willing. Trump, I feel, would have at least tried to prevent this catastrophe that’s being prolonged now from coming to violence.
anyone “looking at the situation realistically and dispassionately” can see that Russia is a proven warmongering menace that cannot be trusted
Reagan understood that ... but a lot here on FR (and Trump, apparently) don’t ...
The construction of "heroic angels" and "diabolic scum" is indeed the stuff of comic books. If there is to come an end to this conflict of attrition, it will have to come when "heroic angels" and "diabolic scum" can talk together. For that to happen, diplomatic speech need replace the hyperbole.
#34: Nicely and accurately stated.
In one sentence you've managed to distill the essence of the mad love affair Youcrayne apologists on FR have with that hyper-corrupt craphole and its clown-like , grifting "leader."
Simply brilliant in its succinctness.
