I strongly feel putin has some leverage on trump, based on behaviors in his first term in office. I don’t think we’re past that issue.

Are you paying the overtime?

Russian front lines.

A French General complained about the presence of American troops at an exercise, and said “I wish these Americans would leave.” The American General overheard him, and asked “Should we also take the men in the graves who died invading Normandy?” The French General, surprised, turned, and he said, “Yes, when your president has you turn and run, try not to forget them when you pack.”

This says rubles but I believe this is converted to USD?

They don’t even go off in the tubes.

I don’t agree with your assessment of how things will shake out. The primary concern of north and south korea fighting in ukraine (I need a new bingo card) is that the fighting could trigger N Korean attacks at the boarder, which will destabilize the region, and allow China’s neighbors to step up their military positions for legitimate cause.

China’s window to attack Taiwan was after Russia took Ukraine - now they are probably recalculating their plans and building a billion drones. That should hold for a while.

My largest concern is trump winning, and europe finding an excuse to trigger article 5, dragging us all into war, so that trump either abandons the alliance and diminishes the US world standing (or biden if he refuses to aid). European nations know ukraine isn’t the first and isn’t the last, and they might as well fight a crippled russia when the US might intercede. If the US did blink, we’d see a loss of allies and Taiwan might as well assume they’re gone in 30 years, as Europe would ignore US aid requests.

Well, clearly you are not a bot on reddit then.

Begun, the drone wars have.

Europe also has the frightening option to attempt to trigger article 5 before January, and make the US choose whether to honor the commitment or leave Europe. It sounds nuts, but if you know you have yo fight russia eventually, it’s bold but could work.

Adam something is such a strange name, too.

I hope you’ve made it out of russia, things are getting nuts there. I wouldn’t even be in georgia now if I was you.

Now this is a Noncredible Defense.

Best turrets in space, gotta give them that.

He sounds credible, don’t be so defensive.

Finally, the Korean War will end somewhere along the Russian-Ukraine boarder.

Looks very much like the tank (and its friend) had taken a hit and was being checked out by infantry; great way to test the expendability of russian infantry.

Zelensky should have sent someone who looks similar, I’m sure the press would have played along.

Very unlikely. Personally compromised by russia, possible. Close to people compromised by russia and thus his decisions are effected by russian interests, I’d say almost probably but not quite to the 90% threshold.
