In recent weeks as I tried to figure out Vlad’s motivation, I thought that perhaps he recently received a stage 4 cancer diagnosis and has essentially opted to go out with a bang. He seems bitter and unhinged. |
Slavs as a group are considered as white as Hispanics or Arabs. So "not quite white" or pure Caucasian if we go by historical and social standards. |
So I'm out of the loop. I know that Russia has, for years, claimed that ethnic Russians in the East part of Ukraine wanted to be "independent". Is that what they're doing? Are the liberating whatever that province is or are they planning on annexing all of Ukraine into Russia? |
They pretended it was about Eastern Ukraine, but instead Putin decided to invade the entire country. |
When you have a feckless, weak buffoon for a president apparently the world notices and takes advantage. |
I think Putin may be starting a war to make the US government squirm and lose support so he can help get Trump back in power in 2024. This may have been the topic of some of their secret conversations. |
My word. You are truly crazy. Putin didn't need to start a war to make this administration "squirm." Have you not seen Biden's approval numbers? Are you unaware that he is underwater on every. single, issue. polled? Putin started a war because he wants to reconstitute the Soviet Union. Don't try to make this about Trump. |
Nobody wants trump back. Putin doesn’t care about trump. Biden already has terrible polling and won’t be re-elected. I think Putin is very sick (medically), and is trying to make a bold move that will land him in the history books. His time is fleeting. |
Look how close that is to Romania and Poland, NATO members.
If you watched Putin's speech last night, you need to know this is not where it's going to end. Nobody fathomed he would dare attack the entire Ukraine. You said it was hysterics. Putin has no qualms attacking NATO because he is absolutely not a rational actor at this point. |
He’s entirely rational. He’s reassembling the Russian Empire and he knows that Europe is so dependent on Russian gas that any sanctions will be a joke. |
Hah, that's funny, thinking Americans can remember or will use what happened in 2022 to influence their voting in 2024. |
Spoken like someone who has no idea what has been happening. The EU made it clear that will not be the case and they are willing to take the hit over this. He is itching to go to war with NATO. And he will. |
Bahahahahahaa |
