My family's not at risk unless things go nuclear, in which case we're just all dead, and I'm not going to risk their lives for Ukraine. OTOH, since it's happening anyway, we should profit from it if we can. I've never said anything else.
March 3, 20223 yr 42 minutes ago, JohnSnowsHair said: in what world did Trump show a strong willingness to deploy US military forces abroad? the guy spent four years trying to withdrawal the US from the world. Putin was not afraid of Trump deploying the US military to Ukraine if he invaded. that speculation is laughable on its face. He didn't have to because it never got to that point Just like Afghanistan, Biden had to wait until the disaster unfolded, and it was politically expedient. Typical politician. Either too scared or dumb to think ahead and strategize.

March 3, 20223 yr I'll never understand why politicians aren't limited to age 65. Once you've hit that age, no more public office for you. Decisions made now are for future generations, which clearly these old bastids don't care about.

"We must all hang together or, most assuredly, will shall all hang separately." —Benjamin Franklin You and I -- assuming you're American -- probably do have to hang together, but Putin is no threat to us unless he uses nukes. You've seen this mess with your own eyes. You think this guy could get so much as a single tank across the Atlantic? Quote At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide. I hope I am over wary; but if I am not, there is even now something of ill omen amongst us.

March 3, 20223 yr Just now, EaglesRocker97 said: This is utterly false and delusional. Ignorance really is bliss... Tell me a scenario that does not involve him using nukes where Putin puts you or me or our families at risk. Where does he get the money, the arms, and the soldiers to defeat us and our allies?

Even though Ukraine has proof, and Ukraine is begging them. Seems like we're(USA/NATO) are ok with taking this in from the sidelines What I'm talking about is taking BOLD action, like you said. I say we drop you in, and have you talk about football and international relations with Vlad until he can take no more and eats a bullet. Thought it was pretty self-explanatory. But I mean, if you don't...Ukraine's fine. They're fine. We're all fine. 8 minutes ago, TorontoEagle said: I'll never understand why politicians aren't limited to age 65.

He doesnt have to be afraid of him, just acknowledge that there are some neurons firing and have a suspicion that there will be a reaction when he blatantly violates international peace Biden is weak, there is currently no "leader of the free world," theres a bunch of beaucrats managing by consensus (just like Obama) Some people prefer that. Im not one of them

March 3, 20223 yr maybe OPEC+ should increase supply 10-15% to at least get back to pre-pandemic amounts rather than artificially depressing supply.... that would be helpful to put pressure on Russia and keep pressure off Western nations.
March 3, 20223 yr 2 minutes ago, VanHammersly said: Good point. After all, Trump nailed his cognitive test To be fair, it had to be in that order, and he also probably had to draw a picture or two of a clock.
March 3, 20223 yr 7 minutes ago, Mike31mt said: just acknowledge that there are some neurons firing and have a suspicion that there will be a reaction when he blatantly violates international peace So what would trump do? Or what do you want Biden to do?
