“Putin has the winning hand. He’ll decide what he keeps.”
.
The Free World rewards Soviet-style invasion.
I remember when the Ukraine army shelled eastern Ukraine in 2014-2015. It’s kinda weird to shell your own country.
‘seized’ sounds so much better (and more nefarious) than say, “conquered”.
Read post 42. This started a lot longer ago than 2022.
Most of us knew how this was going to end
except Zeepers who live in a non reality fantasy.
That's pretty much the point. But it wasn't for a lack trying on the behalf of Deep States in the US and Europe, with the help on mockingbirds and an online 'influencers'.
If this doesn’t win him the Nobel Prize, I don’t know what would.
It’s called the spoils of war....and from the beginning of time. Nothing to do with Trump....or us.
Putin wins, 47 admits US weakness and disdain for former allies and friends, & admits invasion pays. Baltics, Poland, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Hungry, German next on Putin’s list.
Xi Jinping smiles ...
“LET”?
The alternative being committing the U.S. to WWIII with millions of Americans dead?
Hell yes, we will “LET” Putin keep Ukie dirt. Because the alternative is monstrous.
“Reading some of the comments here, the zeepers miss Sugar Daddy FJB just as much.”
Zeepers can wave their Ukie Flags to their Hearts Content in their mothers
Basement. And morn Harris’s loss to Trump.
That seems quite an apt observation. Over these last years, the "Nuland" Freepers -- a bundling of those whose sentiments generally have aligned with that nexus of thoughts and stances -- have posted what are something like Democrat talking points, in terms of those they cite.
America First, as a slogan, has seemed to irritate lots of Euro media and politicians. But my -- insert nation name here -- first is not a silly stance. It is a statement of survival.
We retain friendships with many with whom we have worked over the years, and so I say it is simple commonsense that, for our German friends, they should hopefully think of their nation "first." God and family of course, but throwing out national identity and history in favor of some sort of internationalist pabulum is inane and illogical, no matter how seductive it may seem to some.
The promise of "FJB" as of his cohort of corrupt allies was to peddle some kind of internationalism over local-ism. The adjoining "church of nice" has been able to confound many for a while, but that seems to be coming to an end.
The likes of those Brit media writers who want to trick and trip President Trump into being responsible for the Ukraine-Rissia war are con artists. At best.
"...the zeepers miss Sugar Daddy FJB" is most apt. Kudos.
Sickening that the press blame Trump. Zelenskyy won't face reality. Trump does.
So what would be the alternate, fight two or three more years, kill thousands more and destroy more infrastructure?
Ukraine can’t win, not on its own, not even with NATO supplies and wheelbarrows full of money. On its own it will never defeat Russia and if they came close Russia would use nuclear, I think .
“Putin wins, 47 admits US weakness”
Trump is not going to start WW3 over YouCraynee.
We only heard what Putin gets.
Trump claims to be the masterful deal maker. What does Trump/Ukraine get for this alleged Chaimberlansque peace in our time deal?
If it were me, I would insist on reparations amounting to 35% of Russian oil and gas revenues for 50 years. Those revenues can be assigned to banks in return for immediate cash required for rebuilding the war damage
Trump is not going to start WW3 over YouCraynee or Taiwan, proving 47 is weak and the US a paper tiger.
Sorry, only Dead Enders crave WW3.
