Just read this, but it is predominant on almost every political forum:

"Within the republican party you have an authoritarian Trump wing which wants to ally with Russia."
Question is what Biden does, or can do in this situation.

There is only one answer to this kind of aggression. Stop Russia, or lose Europe. I guess the latter does not matter much for republicans. Until America is next.

Kremlin spokesperson: Pro-Moscow separatist regions ask Kremlin for help repelling Ukraine forces

Quote:
The heads of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) and Luhansk People’s Republic (LPR), two separatist regions in Ukraine, recently recognized by Russia as independent, have formally asked Russian President Vladimir Putin for help repelling the aggression of Ukrainian Armed Forces, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told Russian state news agency RIA-Novosti on Wednesday.

Well, they can ally with the German AfD and SED, which also try to snuggle up with Russia.

If he didn’t initiate sanctions he may have done you a great a favor. Because if even more crushing sanctions are implemented it could get a helluva lot worse. Not just for Russia either. IMO the global economy including yours is kinda fragile right now. Further sanctions might be akin to shooting yourself in the foot. Be careful what you wish for.

Should we suspect the German government of colluding with Putin now too? Because from what I’ve been reading they don’t seem to be too keen on implementing harsh meaningful sanctions either. Or maybe just maybe they might be a tad bit concerned what it could do to your own economy?

Actually Trump sanctioned the Russians at least 16 times by my count so you're wrong. And that doesn't include the other actions like indictments and official statements. With those the number of Trump admin anti-Russian policy actions is almost 60.

But do continue with your misinformation attempts and call yourself lucky that you're not a CDC denier.

If Putin engages NATO forces, there will be hell to pay.

Looks like a go for Kiev, so appears they want it all.

You've already lost Europe to Islam, you just don't know it yet. If anything Putin is getting Mother Russia ready to take on the barbarians after Islam has butchered all of you.


America is more likely to be lost to South America or Islam than the Russkies.
