I have some conserns about Trump if he should win.. My greatest consern is his ability to handle the Ukraine war.. There is so much at stake here.. If Ukraine should collapse Putin will no doubt eraise it as a nation and make it a part of Russia with a stroke of a pen..albeit with a phony election as Crimea..

Then Europe/NATO will have a major problem..

You americans have to understand this..all western Europe NATO states are now rearming...munition plants are running 24-7 to supply Ukraine needs and to replenish their own ammo stocks..

Major states as Poland and Germany are expanding their armies, etc. etc.

Trump´s earlier demands that Europe should provide more to NATO is happening..and then some..

So..how do you predict Trump will handle Ukraine if he should win and the situation is more or less like now on the battlefield..?

I predict that the minute he is voted in and before he even takes office he will pick up a phone and end the madness!

RFK jr. Suspends campaign, endorsing Trump, and blasting the Democrats.
I want to listen to him, but damn, he sounds like someone who gargles with broken glass. Painful to listen to him speak

He has a neurological disorder called spasmodic dysphoria that apparently occurred later in life that causes him to have a raspy voice and had surgery to improve it somewhat. He says he can’t stand his own voice either!

And I actually think he is very well spoken and doesn’t need a teleprompter

I’m well known here and I’m a man of my word! So…. If Trump wins, which I believe that he will, I will bet you $100 cash that the war ends before he is sworn in!
It’s right here for all to see!
And if I lose I will pay right now? Up for the bet?

I am in.. !

But I fear that the ukrainians will be the ones paying for such swift ending of the war..

Unlike the weakness projected by the Biden administration (Jake Sullivan and Anthony Blinken), I believe Trump ends this war by doing nothing. When Russia calls and says we have intel the Ukrainians are planning XYZ, we want you to stop it. Trump simple says, you should call them, this isn't a war with us or with NATO, good luck. He also takes the handcuffs off Ukraine and says they purchased the weapons, they can use them as they see fit.

US stops playing the scared puppet master and stops dictating how Ukrainians should defend themselves. I think both would give the Russian significant pause.

Also, just to be funny can you imagine Putin calling Kamala and her saying, "there is great significance in the passage of time, and now we can be unburden by what has been".

Well, we've all seen what a swell job the current regime is doing with it.
What we really need is some good strong leadership out of Norway, right? Then maybe we'd know who YOUR leader is.

I have not kept up with what Trump has actually said regarding ending the war. All I have heard is that it wouldn't have happened if he was in power and that he would end it within 24 hours if he is elected.

What if his way of ending it (once elected) is to publicly announce that he is giving Ukraine unlimited weapons, the latest and greatest, allowing them to use them in Russia and is sending a fleet to back them up in logistics and launching points. I'm sure it wouldn't take Russia long to back down if they have to face a well supplied and trained Ukraine that is FULLY backed by the USA.

I think the supposition is that he'll force Ukraine to the negotiating table and force them to surrender/concede territory. But you know what they say about assumptions...

What has he ACTUALLY said his plan is?
