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.

Russian gas for Europe is gone for good my friend. Sanctions will shut him down if done right.

US will move troops into Poland/Romania from Germany. US troops from US to the Baltic countries. This is bad. Any attack on NATO gets a US military response.

Troops have already been moved, honey.

This sounds rational to you?

Hah, that's funny, thinking Americans can remember or will use what happened in 2022 to influence their voting in 2024.

You still believe the Russia collusion narrative??? Why would Putin want Trump to be president when Biden is handing everything to him on a silver platter???? Please explain.

Trump is not president any more but Putin sees the blame American first conservatives as allies. Putin was encouraged after trump praised his interference in our elections and the conservatives/republicans cheering for our defeat in Afghanistan.

I’m a thread about Ukraine you people find a way to blame trump 😂 ya’ll need hobbies

It’s a thread about Russia and Trump is Putun’s biggest domestic cheerleader so nice try but we are not stupid.

Putin sees weakness in Europe and in a divided U.S., and he is a bully. He will take as much as he can over the next few years unless we nip this in the bud now.

Oh, FFS.
Here we have a twitter warrior and a poster working REALLY hard at deflecting from Biden's weakness and horrible foreign policy decisions.
The invasion has nothing to do with Trump. Putin sees weakness in our leaders. He watched the Afghanistan debacle. He watched as Biden declared war on oil and gas, thus making Putin more powerful. He knows that the time to strike is now.
And, the fact that our southern border is essentially wide open doesn't help make us any safer.

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.

Sure, Germans will be perfectly happy with brownouts. We’ll do what we always do and sanction some senior leadership and a few companies and call it a day.

Since you're such an expert on Eastern Europe and Russian Geo-politics, and military tactics, what do you suggest? Or are you only adept at sarcasm?

No, it's no longer credibly about "liberating ethnic Russians in Eastern Ukraine." That's all now exposed as a blatant lie as the Russians struck numerous targets outside of Donetsk and Luhansk. They plan to forcibly annex the entirety of Ukraine.

And if you note a few pages ago when i mentioned their foreign excnahe reserves…this is why russian chose now to call in their invoice.

The ruble is crashing but they can prop it up.

The banking sector? I say kick them out of SWIFT and immediately call in every loan with everyone and everything Russian, cancel every contract, freeze every penny sitting outside of Russia and do it NOW. Disrupt cryptocurrency in Russia. Pull out all of the economic stops. Putin isn't all that financially secure.

Completely agree.
