Have you actually considered listening to his stated position on what he'll do in Ukraine instead of just inventing some fantasy of what you think it is?

Was it in the speech where he claimed numerous times Nikki Haley was in charge of security at the Capitol on Jan 6th?

From what I remember all he has said is he'll give them both an ultimatum, zero actual details or what he would actually do if either or both refused or didn't keep to their word.

It's quite depressing that come November the country considered the leader of the west, and the biggest supporter of Ukraine, is going to be run either by a crazy old man or a senile old man, for the next four years :(

He wasn't calling you stupid, he was calling your argument stupid.

So Russia is now using starlink....

Be interesting to figure out how they've managed this, apparently they're using legit accounts not hacking.

Obviously Starlink is disabled in Russia but you would think they also disabled any Russian accounts, thus preventing them from just carrying them to Ukraine and using them there. Then again maybe they assumed the Russians would just cancel their direct debits once the service shut down lol.

Maybe they're buying the hardware and the subscription in another country and moving them to Ukraine, which implies there's either no geo-locking of Starlink accounts or it's not enabled (Maybe Vlad sprang for the mobile home package lol).

That's been on the cards for a while. The counter offensive was a bit a damp squib and now Ukraine is back on the defensive, this has probably all contributed to his dismissal. I just hope the reason is military reasons not political

Two options if Trump wins in my opinion:

1/ He follows his M.O - He'll stop funding to Ukraine, call Zenesky and say there's no more money and demand the money back he stole from the US. The EU isn't giving you enough to continue to fight, negotiate with Putin or risk losing the whole country again. He will then go on TV and tell the world he's told him that, how it's am ammmmzing thing to have done and how he is looking after America's interests first. His base will lap it up, reinforce the fact the Biden's are a criminals. Meanwhile Ukraine is screwed (unless EU do significantly up their military supplies as they promised but are really yet to do).

He'll then tell the rest of the Baltics you might be in NATO but we have no interest in actually helping you.

2/ He actually pays attention to what some of the Senior GOP leaders are saying which is that Ukraine must be supported and continues providing military aid but less than under Biden. By that point he's probably already "solved" the southern border "invasion" so his base and GOP nutcases are happy about that. But then providing Ukraine with aid creates a problem as he's told everyone that they are dodgy, can't be trusted, in bed with the Bidens etc. But then when has doing a 180 ever been a problem for Trump.


I should think 1 is most likely. Ukraine may be forced to negotiate. Putin doesn't go after anyone else.. he's a war criminal and a dictator but he's not stupid and won't go after any other countries.

4 years go by, Republicans lose the next election because of the craziness of Trump. Dems get back in.. NATO is safe, too late for Ukraine.


WW3 - anything is possible with Trump, look at the Afghanistan deal. But he's Putin's shill, he's potentially in the pocket of a few Russian banks. I don't think there's much chance of WW3 kicking off with him as President.

Almost but the first thing trump will do is try his very best to pull the US out of NATO, His master wants it so he will be trying hard to do it along with cutting all funding.

There may be protections in place to stop it happening as the sane people know its the first thing he will try to do so I believe Biden has been working unilaterally with the sane republicans to stop it happening even if he is in power.
 
That's quite a shopping list of destruction. We talk about Ukraine and lack of ammo, but I wonder if eventually Russia will run out of combat vehicles.

They had a huge stock of them when the war started, but there is a large number of destroyed vehicles and I doubt they make them as quickly as they lose them, probably not even close.

I've not kept up with it but it was something like 1.8 produced for every 40 destroyed or something.

Just a shame Ukraine is under funded right now otherwise the list would be even bigger!
 

Sounds like no one will be left soon, there's a 59 year old in that video and they can be drafted until 60

wonder what they are loosening the forced conscription to next then 65? 70?
