    LOL, you must be a complete moron. Lets look at the facts.

    Under Bush, Putin invaded Georgia
    Under Obama, Putin invaded Crimea
    Under Biden, Putin invaded the rest of Ukraine

    Under Trump, it was crickets from Putin.

    Trump was the toughest President against Russia since Reagan.

    BTW, what is this nonsense about destroying Nato. Nato became a treaty that said if you were part of it, you spent almost nothing on your military and you let the US foot the bill.

    So tell us about the Russian war in Syria. Who was the U.S. President during the majority of the Russian operations in Syria which killed thousands? Was it some guy named Trump the U.S. President who just allowed the Russians to do whatever they pleased in Syria -- including attacking American troops multiple times with deliberate targeting. The lack of serious U.S. response in Syria merely emboldened Putin to invade Ukraine.

    WTF did tRump do to Putin to stop him from building up his forces to invade Ukraine, besides golfing his way thru his one and only lewzer to Sleepy Joe term. Nooooothing.

  4. Here is a fellow right here who will NOT be getting an extra potato in his rations this month.

    Hopefully, he planned that as a one way flight for him and he packed some extra socks and undies a few of the obligatory bottles of vodka.



    Russian commercial pilot announces after flight lands that 'the war in Ukraine is a crime, we must stop it immediately' - to rapturous applause from passengers
    • The pilot, who has not yet been named, was flying for Russian airline Pobeda
    • After landing the flight in Antalya, Turkey, he gave a passionate anti-war speech
    • The defiant message condemning the invasion of Ukraine quickly went viral
    • But the pilot likely faces severe repercussions should he return to Russia
    • More than 2.8 million have fled Ukraine since Russia invaded in late February

  6. As long as it ends quickly so it does not drag the U.S. back to 2009 :(

  7. It is a complicated world.

    Neither the West nor Russia have even given remote thought to how much China will become involved in the rebuilding of Ukraine.

    Answering to libs... Trump's tongue is too long. That is the problem. Otherwise, he was an excellent President. You guys picked up, right, as you said yourself, Mr. Porato Head. I bet it feels bad, very bad. It should.

    Hilarious.

    AvtoVaz factory in Russia opened their assembly lines (with big press campaign etc.) to produce Lada Granta car - without ABS, without airbags, no automatic transmission, you know, "luxuries". They call it "Lada Granta Classic" (ROTFLMAO). That was on June 5th.

    Today they announced that they are stopping production. Lack of spare parts. That big "opening" lasted all of 4 days. #winning

    Since obviously they knew 4 days ago they don't have enough spare parts, the whole "reopening" charade was quite clearly for show only. Like most Russian industrial "achievements". Remember - "Potemkin village" concept came from Russia.

    Japanese DMG Mori Seiki announced that they're stopping all business in Russia and closing their manufacturing there - in Ulyanovsk. This is a computerized machine tooling production company. Note: Russia has no companies that can provide such equipment.

    I am sure it is a huge boost to Russian economy. After all they probably still have some of these from the Soviet era:
