Are you insane? We were so close to being nuked by North Korea because of him. I'm disappointed by this administration but it's far better than having Trump in charge.

Hahahahahaha!

Rocket Man barely made a peep those four years. Nuke us????? Bwahahahahaha!!!! He knew his fat a$$ would’ve been turned into 250lbs of fallout if he ever ever did anything even remotely that stupid.

But now? You had all airports on the west coast at a ground-stop two weeks ago because of an unannounced surprise NorK missile launch.

You're such a clown. Just stop embarrassing yourself.

Shame we spent so much money building up bombs and tankers to win the wars we lost in the last century, instead of developing our capabilities in cyber, social, financial, and biological warfare. Russian society is so debased, drunk, and corrupt that it really wouldn’t have taken much to destabilize them from the inside out. You could unleash a virus worse than COVID and because they don’t trust their government, they would allow it to run unchecked. Instead, we let them destabilize us using tools we ourselves created, and are going all on in crap like crypto that they control, and we are the ones that are allowing a deadly virus to run unchecked. We couldn’t unleash a biological weapon because our own population would refuse to protect itself from itZ

When it comes to suffering and death, Russians will out sustain us every single time. They will send their boys to die, they will starve, and they will survive to elect another dictator. They are the cockroaches of the world. A significant portion of our population won’t even wear a flimsy surgical mask and is threatening civil war because they can’t get a new F-150 this year. Our people have gone soft. There is no concept of sacrifice.

This makes no sense. Winning the cold war was no sure thing. But Russia is not the Soviet Union. They would crumble under a sustained US attack which is where we could be heading. What wars did we lose in the last century? Not Korea. We saved half of that country from a dark evil abyss. Vietnam? We lost the country but look at where we are today in Asia. Things turned out quite well and Vietnam likely one of our key Allies against China.

That may have been the case a generation or two ago in Russia - but now Russia's military-recruit-aged population is wrapped up in Tik Tok and everything else. They've "gone soft," too. Have you seen any of the interviews and polls in Russia? A solid majority of Russians don't think there will be a war or invasion of Ukraine and have no interest in a war or invading Ukraine. Putin couldn't sell the on Ukraine as an enemy. That's why he had to reframe it as NATO being the threat and even that's been a tough sell for him.

You’re the one who should be embarrassed, with a retort utterly devoid of facts.

Biden took a military response off the table months ago.
I am not gung ho on getting involved in a military conflict, but Biden should know that you never publicly take *anything* off the table. You leave your adversaries guessing what your next move might be.
Biden is not the "foreign policy expert" that he sold himself to be and he has not surrounded himself with strong experts. These are mostly the same people who watched as Putin annex Crimea and did nothing. And, remember when Russia shot down the commercial aircraft in 2014? No response from the US.
I am far from a war monger, but I also understand that Putin has gotten away with a ton of stuff and instead of holding him accountable, we give him Nord Stream 2. Great job.

Nah, Biden and NATO has played this exactly right so far. If Russia wants to hang themselves that's on them.

I don't think it's at all "off the table." If there is a clear and prolonged escalation by Russia to include all out war and annexation of its neighbors the US will definitely engage.

US President Joe Biden has said that putting American troops on the ground in Ukraine in the event of a Russian invasion is "not on the table".

Yes, but putting them in Poland, Romania and the Baltics is not.

If Russia and Germany want a pipeline built, what business is it of anyone else?

If that's how flippantly you view a massive loss of civilian life Americans caused in Vietnam, then Putin may as well say - so what, we may kill a bunch of Ukrainians but things will surely turn out well a couple of generations from now. You are so quick to forgive.

Biden didn’t take anything off the table. Ukraine is not a NATO member any anyone with any foreign policy knowledge (ie. Putin and the entirety if Russian, Ukrainian and US military and FP establishment) knew the US was not going to send boots on the ground to Ukraine - not even the Ukrainians expect that. The US will put more troops into NATO countries if Putin invades Ukraine. the US will arm Ukraine and sanction Russia. The US will provide humanitarian aid to Ukraine. It will support refugees in Europe (although it remains to be seen what Europe itself will do for refugees given its recent refugee performance).

I'd ask who's side you're on but I think your question give me my answer.
