Right, otherwise known as blackmail. For dirt on Biden that Ukraine literally didn't have. Nobody said Trump was the sharpest tool in the shed, but he still tried to weaken the Ukrainian military at a time when he already knew Russia had designs on invasion.
I've been saying this entire time the invasion of Ukraine was/is completely Putin's fault. Trump was just his useful stooge, less so now that he's losing influence and continuing to pick the morally bankrupt side on every issue.
Trump is the furthest possible thing from likable. The truth is that even Kim Jong Un took one look at him and knew he could play the idiot like a fiddle. Pay Trump a single compliment and he'll give you nukes (hyperbole, but just barely). That's NPD for you, and it's why people with that disorder should never ever be president.
Still shows support for a war criminal, and still not even remotely accurate. Nobody bought that flimsy excuse. The second Putin declared two regions of Ukraine "independent," the media started correctly categorizing it as an invasion.
The sanctions cut Putin's war chest literally in half, and Ukraine reports that up to 40% of Russian invaders have been killed. There is a very real possibility that this ends up a total loss by Russia to a military about a quarter of the size.
Disagree. It's obvious in hindsight that Russia's bark has been much bigger than its bite for decades. They paid out to manufacture a few "show" models of newer military tech/equipment, but the vast majority of what they've got is from the 1980s or even WW2.
On that we can agree. Right-wing boomers always want to take their countries back in time when they gain power, rather than doing anything to improve things in the here and now.
