He was so naive, he prevented them from invading Ukraine for four years...imagine

Trump's right. Putin is a genius.

He fooled all the neocons into believing Trump was the Russian asset, when in fact, Putin likely helped rig the 2020 election in favor of BIDEN, something the neocons would have likely embraced whole heartedly.

How else to explain why Putin waited until his supposed ASSET was out of office before moving on Ukraine?

If you had someone like Trump, who was supposedly:

a) a bitch for Russia
b) a Russian asset
c) someone who did the bidding of Russia
d) someone you had a massive trove of KOMPROMAT on...

why in the world wouldn't you invade Ukraine while your bitch was still in office? They wasted all that investment in getting Trump elected, only to wait until he was out of office to stage a military invasion of a sovereign nation?

Come on...I'm dumb...but I ain't that dumb.

You probably are though.

The Message Here Still Seems To Escape Everyone's Thinking Process...

After almost 4 years, you'd think it would have sunk in by now.....Oh well.

One can only wonder what you would be saying about that if Trump were president now.

Something tells me you wouldn't have failed to completely mention it up until this point...
THIS pretty much dwarfs Trump's phone call that led to a faux impeachment, no? Where are the transcripts of this act of treason?

You won't beat down Russia by outlasting them. If you don't have an army of compatible strength, all the gifted arms on the planet won't save you. Without outside help, this is a losing blueprint on paper alone.
Conventional large scale warfare requires preparation. Having your civilians join your army is a sign of weakness and ill preparation. If another source of strengthening doesn't step up, Ukraine is doomed.
Large scaled conventional warfare is outdated. Its probably why operations on both sides appear sloppy and uncoordinated. Leadership on either side is clueless. The war is a disaster from all angles.
Putin wouldn't be threatening 'nuclear,' unless he was experiencing heavy losses in both manpower and equipment assets.

His soldiers are not adept at gorilla warfare, either.

I believe Ukraine, with Zellinsky as its leader, especially, has a good chance of winning this war. He, not Biden as Jen Psaki claimed, has literally rallied the world against Putin, in one way or another.

The account of David and Goliath in the Bible has profound meaning.

It's going to be very interesting tomorrow in Moscow. There will be chaos and likely market devastation as there will likely be runs on banks and the ruble will crash. Vlad may win the battle in Ukraine, but the populace not going to be happy with their lives starting tomorrow.

Putin is obviously an idiot.

He should have invaded Ukraine while his puppet (Trump) was still in the White House. Then maybe his puppet wouldn't have pressed for harsh sanctions.

Right neocons?

Like, what's the point of having a puppet if you don't use it?
