Politics

Just read Trump's actual comments from his Stuart Varney interview day before yesterday. I voted for this guy twice. But damn. We have to come up with another option. I have no idea what he was trying to say or what he thought he meant.

Asked about what he would do with respect to Ukraine.

“Well, what I would do, is I would — we would — we have tremendous military capability and what we can do without planes, to be honest with you, without 44-year-old jets, what we can do is enormous. And we should be doing it and we should be helping them to survive and they’re doing an amazing job.”

“I listen to [Vladimir Putin] constantly using the n word. That’s the n word, and he’s constantly using it: the nuclear word. And we never talk of, we say, ‘Oh, he’s a nuclear power.’ But we’re a greater nuclear power. We have the greatest submarines in the world, most powerful machines ever built. Most powerful, and they got built under me. Most powerful machines ever built, and nobody knows where they are. And you should say, ‘Look, if you mention that word one more time, we’re going to send them over, and we’ll be coasting back and forth up and down your coast.’”


I mean seriously - we are going to sail nuclear submarines up and down Russia's coast?!? Doing what exactly that they can't do a thousand miles at sea?

This will be happen.
The Russian leadership has always been indifferent to people, both its own and foreign, since the time of the tsars.
And the brainwashing of the people there has worked for decades.
Putin wants to leave a clear footprint in the history of his country.

Earlier today, Vitali Klitschko, now mayor of Kiev, spoke at the Munich City Council via live streaming.
He said that Russia flies its dead soldiers back home in tons (as a weight unit).Since the bodies are so disfigured by acts of war that they can no longer be matched to the bodies.

What a misery for all the affected people.
a Russian proverb quoted by him ,with regard to Putin
"A wolf may loose its teeth one day, but it never looses its character".
I think he may get his wish with respect to a spot in history - probably not the chapter he anticipated.

Agreed. I voted for him as well, but he came across as an idiot in that interview.
We need to do better.

Please Lord, don't let anything happen to Joe Biden for at least three years! We just need three years of passage of time.


 
A bit long, but interesting

In an interview for the FRONTLINE documentary “Putin’s Road to War,” journalist Julia Ioffe discusses Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine — and why she believes the Russian leader is now “more dangerous than he’s ever been at any point in the last 22 years.” “What he has opened up with this invasion is unthinkable,” Ioffe tells FRONTLINE. “And because he is losing and because the sanctions and the Ukrainians are humiliating him, because he is backed into a corner, he is the most dangerous he has ever been, because it is now existential for him.” Julia Ioffe is an American journalist who was born in Russia. She is a writer for and founding partner of the media company Puck. She previously reported on politics and world affairs for The Atlantic. This interview was conducted by FRONTLINE’s Mike Wiser on March 3, 2022. It has been edited for clarity and length. “Putin’s Road to War” premieres March 15, 2022. Watch the trailer now: https://youtu.be/EaUefbpmV08 This interview is being published as part of FRONTLINE’s Transparency Project, an effort to open up the source material behind our documentaries.

War is rather lethal. Who knew?

Who would these "kill squads" consist of? You would think such staunch supporters of the Russian effort would be a little busy right now. What happens when/if they refuse to shoot their own?

Desperation is taking hold.

I would never have imagined that anyone could be the cause of more head shaking, eye rolling embarrassment than Joe Biden. I should have been more open to the concept.
 
Half the population has below average intelligence. Unfortunately, they all voted.

Unfortunately, many of the candidates came from the same subset.
 
Wait a minute!!! "Ukraine is destroying Russian Missiles with Hospitals"

What Kindergartner wrote that? Do the Russian Missiles have Hospitals? or

Are the Ukrainians using Hospitals to destroy Russian Missiles?

Or??

I wonder if the author's mother was thrown from the train a kiss?

You do realize it was deliberately ironic?

It's only a joke. The epitome of "fake news", although I would not count out a Russian attempt at similar propaganda. ;)

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.

Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
