Dear lord. How are we this far into the discussion and you still don’t understand that the US doesn’t control swift?

I hope this crisis, the Ukrainian’s will to fight, and much of the world’s solidarity with them is a turning point in America against Trump and his supporters. I hope that Americans now understand that given another chance, Trump would be another Putin and his followers would be his henchmen. If America doesn’t want that, we need to stand up now against these evil monsters!

Germany has apparently been stiff arming Ukraine appeals for assistance. Pretty sad.

Sadly I think you really overestimate Americans.

How is this episode demonstrating that Trump would be another Putin? Trump wasn't really expansionist.

Vladimir Putin severely underestimates the will of the Ukrainian people to fight for their country AND misjudged the support he had from the Russian people for his unlawful power grab.

After days of fighting, Putin fails in his effort, is overthrown by the citizenry of Russia and is jailed. The citizens of Russia decide that they would prefer to be governed by a strong leader like Zelenskyy and vote to become part of Ukraine, thus dissolving Russia as we know it.

Nice! This is the ultimate scenario.

The Polish PM has flown to Germany to call Scholz a pussy to his face.

+1. 40% of the country affirmatively opposes Putin, 40% support him to varying degrees, and 20% “can see both sides.”

We are not a country to be proud of.

Where have you been! He wants to be a dictator! Dictator of America. Wants to overthrow free elections. Also, when he praised Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, he said we should do the same to Mexico. Apparently, you are a T follower and don’t even understand your “leader.” Sounds like the Russian military on the front lines of the Ukraine invasion who don’t understand what they’re fighting for.

Because amongst the deranged, all roads lead to Trump. It would be laughable if it weren’t so pathetic.

Heck, there were no new wars under Trump. There was a pretty strong peace process in the Middle East. I'm not sure why Trump is even
mentioned in this thread.

Clearly Putin read Biden is weak.
