Agree. Biden just wasn’t prepared for Trump’s dirty playing sucker punches and blaming him for everything in the world. It started when trump arrogantly wouldn’t shake Biden’s hand or even look at him when they came on stage. I am sure trump was coached on psychology warfare tactics from his Bannon, stone & other ex con buddies. He was getting even for when Biden won the debate that cost Trump the election. Most civilized people are decent, respectful, with normal social graces but have no clue on how to deal with a smarmy alley cat. It stunned Biden and it was hard to recover but he did.

If Biden can’t handle the fact that Trump didn’t shake his hand, how does he handle belligerent foreign leaders? The lack of handshake or psychological warfare shouldn’t rattle the President of the United States.

He has been handling the belligerent foreign leaders just fine. Certainly better than Trump literally bowing to the NK autocrat or looking like a beaten dog after meeting with Putin.

Seriously? So he’s intimidated by Trump, but he hold Putin in line. Yeah. Dream on.

You think someone who is chummy with Putin is better? Good grief.

Trump admin approves new sale of anti-tank weapons to Ukraine.

The Trump administration first approved the sale of Javelins to Ukraine in 2017.

The Trump administration has approved the $39 million sale of defensive lethal weapons to Ukraine, according to two U.S. officials and another source familiar with the plan.

The new package will include Javelin anti-tank weapons, with one U.S. official saying it includes 150 missiles and two launchers, which was first reported by Bloomberg News.

In Ukraine, The Javelin Is More Than a Weapon

How the Javelin missile became Ukraine’s savior and symbol of resistance.

In a country full of cell phone cameras and major media outlets — and as a rapidly changing major conflict — images of the Russian invasion of Ukraine flood television and social media. Twitter serves as a rough chronological catalog of ongoing firefights with various hashtags providing information, with #Ukraine, #UkraineRussiaWar, and #UkraineWar being a few. Amid this backdrop, one weapon in particular features as an outsized symbol of Ukrainian resistance: the Javelin missile.

The unending information, along with the juxtaposition of its varying quality, makes for a complicated social dialogue. Often, though, public discourse parses through this complexity and identifies a more simple narrative. One emerging narrative is that of the material and symbolic importance of the Javelin missile. Among the Stinger missiles, Main Battle Tank and Light Anti-Tank Weapon (NLAWS), and now even Soviet-era Strela missiles, it’s the Javelin that seems to have disproportionately captured public attention. But is the Javelin a divine tool of intervention or simply one of the more effective weapons on battlefields across Ukraine?

WHY THE THE JAVELIN MISSILE IS EFFECTIVE

Though predating the recent Russian invasion, an image of Mary Magdalene holding a Javelin missile, displayed in the style of Eastern Orthodox iconography, started to flood social media. Commonly referred to as Saint Javelin, this image symbolizes much of the seemingly miraculous Ukrainian resistance against overwhelming Russian forces. A website now features stickers and other items for sale, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars in just a few days to support Ukrainian orphans and victims of violence.

Why did Trump approve the sale of anti-tank javelins if he is so chummy with Putin?

Ukraine asked Obama for javelins, better yet, why didn’t Obama sell Ukraine the javelins?

So many DNC liars posting here.

Yes, it is true that Trump sold Javelins to Ukraine. He also stipulated they needed to remain in the western part of the country, away from where the fighting was taking place. So, it was all optics. How is that a win?

Ukrainian Foreign Affairs Minister Dmytro Kuleba has praised former President Donald Trump for selling Ukraine "the first American weapons."

Trump did approve the sale of Javelin missiles to Ukraine in late 2017, while the country's military continued to fight pro-Russia separatists years after the outbreak of war in February 2014. Some considered the move risky at the time due to fears of provoking Moscow.(That’s why Obama would not sell them javelin. Javelin are a defensive weapon. They could not be near the front lines because Russia would be provoked, damaging the situation further. Javelin are used defensively and were not optics.)

Trump sold Ukraine a powerful weapons system Putin did not want Ukraine to have.

“Who sold the first American weapons to Ukraine? President Trump - Javelins," Kuleba said. "Who started the program of free transfer of the first naval vessels, Island and Mark-6 type boats to Ukraine? Trump. Who fought Nord Stream 2 and sanctioned the famous but now forgotten Russia's Fortuna vessel that laid this pipeline? It was Trump."”
