Also, the whole “rent free” thing was clever what? 15 years ago? Now it is just a tired trope. Much like conservatism writ large.

When he makes EU people cry…he’s not a fluke.
Why? A good actor can do that.
I am not saying it’s an act by the way. Just saying it’s not that hard.
He is everything positive that people say he is but a huge part of it is his persona. I am not saying that has to be taken into account when helping Ukraine, it just has to be understood. Because if it’s not, it’s too easy to shift into a cult of personality.

Very good point. Sorry if my post came across mean. I do think that we’re dealing with the real deal. ■■■■■■■ leader would have been in Lviv weeks ago. And he is an actor/comedian. But from day one of invasion he’s been a rock.

LOL…as if Biden hasn’t been an unmitigated disaster.
Fruit of a poison election.
Yes I do. I have no doubt that is exactly how it would go down.
Remember, this is the same president who stood on the world stage in Helsinki and sided with Putin against his own country.
This was also the meeting where the president met privately with Putin, and most likely agreed to the dismantling of NATO.
And you cannot gainsay this, because no minutes of the meeting exist.
Biden has handled Ukraine well. Only sufferers of chronic BDS can’t see that.
Right everythang no matter what.
Just remember - not better

I could point to a few mistakes he has made, he definitely shows his hand too much, but yeah overall no major screwup.

Interesting take on what might have happened if Trump got re-elected

I’m thinking that’s the one area where the Russians are still competent.
They are a nuclear force first and foremost. Have been since the USSR fell.

I don’t know what Trump would have done but I have a pretty good idea if Bolton was in charge we would more than likely be more involved and in more of a position for escalation.

He’s a strange bed fellow to say the least regardless of his disdain for the former president he’s always been a war hawk, there is no changing his past hawkishness.
