Gee, ya know, this Ukraine thing might take more than a day to end the war. who knew..

Why doesn't Trump have the balls to tell Pootin what he tells Iran? GTFO or we'll take air superiority in a day, build an Iron Dome v2 around Ukraine and give Ukraine every NATO weapon they need to keep the meat grinder of Russian conscripts running. Russia and the US did sign the Budapest Memorandum after all...

Sheeeeeit, you think Putin is going to let his bottom bitch tell him what to do? Putin is an evil fucker, but he is a smart guy. He knows Trump is an idiot and is not going to do shit to him... the funny thing is that Trump is so delusional and stupid that he actually thought Putin respected him enough to end the war at his request.

That’s easier said than done. Russia has the largest nuclear arsenal in the world. If it’s backed into a corner it can go nuclear, or start carpet bombing civilians like we did in World War II. And the Ukraine war will be over pretty damn quick. There’s no way Russia loses this. Hopefully there will be a permanent cease fire like Korea, soon.

Russia, the aggressor, is the party that hasn't come to the table.

... Zelenskyy has changed his stance and terms of agreement
two or three times already.

Please try to keep up.

At least Trump’s trying. That’s more than you can say for Biden and Congress, which enabled this war which has killed hundreds of thousands.

i agree with you. Russia's vaunted military has had an "Emperor's New Clothes" moment getting basically stalemated by a nobody military called Ukraine.

what's funny is that Trump is missing something huge in the minerals deal he's doing with Ukraine. as soon as we have U.S. contractors on the ground, Trump will have no choice but to defend them, and in the process, Ukraine.

i think Zelensky was a genius for agreeing to the cease fire and to the minerals deal. Trump just got suckered into basically defending Ukraine because American lives will be at stake once the mining operations begin, hopefully soon.

i think we should keep supplying weapons to Ukraine as long as they have the will to fight. China is watching carefully to see if we defend our allies or abandon them when the going gets tough. as soon as they think we're a paper tiger, they will invade and take Taiwan. they are practicing invasion ops on the regular as we speak.

Surprise.

It’s hard to “never let them know what you’re thinking” when you can’t think to begin with.

LM is right, Trump is being played by Putin, but I do believe that Russia would back down.


As long as NATO forces didn't cross into Russia I don't think he'd pull out tactical nukes...he knows what MAD means for him too. Not to mention, I bet over half of his weapons wouldn't successfully fire after decades of neglect and corruption.
