All purpose news and politics thread part VI: This Is Not The Time For Posing

Unfortunately we won’t be done with Trump until he dies of natural causes.

His racist nationalist insanity will haunt us for decades.

Well, he called in to Laura Ingrahams Fascism Hour today and was disoriented and confused and thought American troops invaded Ukraine and accused Laura of spilling state secrets, so that can't be helpful for a future campaign.

That brain fart won’t matter a damn to hardcore Trumpanzees. In 2020, he suggested people ingest bleach as a COVID cure, and millions still voted for him. To his legions of lemmings, Trump can say or do no wrong,

Meanwhile, I'm sure treasonous Qpublicans and the mouth foaming idiots on Faux News are bending over backwards praising Putin for invading Ukraine. Never mind that scores of lives could be lost, scores more will be displaced and end up as refugees along with the specter of economic chaos the world over, the only thing that matters to right wingers is how much this madness will hurt Biden, and that makes them happier than pigs in slop. In a word...deplorable.

The word for it is schadenfreude not praise for Putin and yes this is happening because of Resident Biden is a mealy mouthed tool that was put in office to sing kumbaya with our Allies rather than hurt their wittle feelings about growing up and paying and strengthening NATO all while not pushing hot buttons on Ukraine joining. Berlin of ignored the interests of its allies by filling Russia's coffers at the time of a diplomatic conflict. US President Donald Trump slammed Berlin in July 2018, saying it was "captive to Russia" due to its energy policy. "Pipeline dollars to Russia are not acceptable!" he tweeted. This also goes back to the 1st impeachment and how our congress undermined the Head of State to correct our position and stand-up Zelensky as a hero defying Putin and Trump when Trump needed him to talk soft and hold tough. Our Deep State that loves Biden because he "listens" to their advice is really where the blame lies but no heads will roll to match the suffering of the Ukrainians because it is and was German friendship that is more important.

Really is there anything Biden could have done to stop this? What president would haev stopped this.

On one hand we have people saying "Stay out of this. This is not our fight. Dont send troops." While att he same time "This is Biden's fault he did nothing about this? Why didnt he do more?"

This aint on Biden. Putin wanted a war and he got it.

see above how the forces that installed Biden created the Ukraine that is getting stomped on. Talking Tough publicly with and about Putin was never a good idea. It wasn't appeasement either what Trump did. My guess is though is that there won't be a Frontline episode on How Democrats from Obama to Biden screwed the pooch on Ukraine. Look through this Wiki piece and note the void of US involvement in 2014 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexa...ian_Federation Kerry's name appears how often?

Meanwhile Ukraine is discovering the 2nd Amendment “We will give weapons to anyone who wants to defend the country. Be ready to support Ukraine in the squares of our cities.”

Just want to note to readers that this post is spreading falsehoods. President Biden was not installed. He was voted into office by the majority of voters in a legitimate election.

And The GOP is so happy about this. I am shocked they can hide their smiles on tv. They are already getting the talking points ready for the mid terms and 2024 about how the Dems let Russia run wild and Only the GOP can stand up to them.

I cant tell you how many "Biden is letting it happen because Russia owns him. Hunters Emails." Crap the last week and it is only going to get a lot worse with that talk.

And you're saying the Democrats weren't doing this in 2008 when the housing bubble burst? They blamed Bush for the debacle. Both parties are guilty of piling on when it counts.

This is not doing my anxiety and mental health any favors. biting my fingers due to my compulsive nature, athough it obvious with how I am, I doubt they will draft me. I tried the Navy, didn't last boot camp had a mental breakdown and was honorably discharged.

Except Bush actually had culpability in not dealing with the Housing Bubble or the bad actions of the financial sector during that time.


Bush can share the blame for financial crisis

... This is a bad attempt at equivalence.

There are reports that over 70 Ukrainian military targets have been destroyed including airbases and a chunk of their fleet. Currently there's fighting for control of an airbase on the northern outskirts of Kiev.

Even scarier is there is fighting reportedly at the Chornobyl exclusion zone which can cause potential nuclear hazards.
President Zelensky: "Russian occupation forces are trying to capture the Chernobyl plant. This is a declaration of war on the whole of Europe."

Frankly, it doesn't matter if you agree Biden is to blame or not. This is on his watch and it looks absolutely horrible for him.
Biden in 2019: "Putin knows if I am President of the United States, his days of tyranny and trying to intimidate the United States and Eastern Europe are over."

A note to readers that you are entitled to make up your own mind after looking at the whole narrative of Biden coming into the Presidential office and its questionable legitimacy. There is little proof that ballots equaled voters.

It's why he should be banned. Well, that and the repeated endorsements of violence.

Here in the reality, people don't go by conspiracy theories.
