[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had to laugh when Russia said they were putting sanctions on Biden - as if Biden had accounts and loans with Sberbank 🤣[/quote]

Would not recommend laughing at the criminally insane leader of Russia. He controls the majority of the world’s nukes - the US a distant second …[/quote]

Huh?
Russia has about 6200, 2k are tactical.
US has 5500.

Of russias 6200 maybe 2000 would actually launch.[/quote]

How do you know that? The US’s nuclear arsenal is also quite old and out of date.[/quote]

The US has modernization programs, testing & simulation programs, and rigorous maintenance programs for our most sophisticated weapons system: our nuclear arsenal.

The only reason we agreed to the test ban is we confidently knew we could keep that arsenal in working order without actually detonating our bombs.

While our programs are all classified, everyone knows we spend a lot on them and Congress oversees the programs.  They work.

compare that with what we have seen from the Russians.  Remember that parachute assault?  Several Russian parachutes failed to open at all (which doesn’t matter; the Ukrainian villagers shot the rest on the way down or as they landed.  All were killed - including their general).

Look at their trucks:  the tires are flat and leaky half the time.

The “fuel issues?”  It isn’t just supply.  The oligarchs “cut”  the fuel with water or cheaper flamables, and sold the extra gasoline to pay for London apartments and mega yachts.

We may have our issues here.  But our issues are nothing compared to the Russian oligarchy / kleptocracy under Putin.[/quote]
