In his speech declaring victory in the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 6, Donald Trump made no mention of Ukraine yet alluded to just how consequential his second term in office will likely be for the country ravaged by Russia’s invasion.
. . .
How does Trump plan to stop Russia's war against Ukraine?
That's the million-dollar question that is undoubtedly being discussed in capitals worldwide, not least in Kyiv and Moscow.
"Sure, I knew that voting for Trump meant more and worse genocides including on American soil, but I expected it from him. Seeing a genocide under Kamala Harris's tenure as not-president made me worry she wouldn't actually help once she became president. And then I'd be disappointed. Why would I want to possibly be disappointed when I can instead experience horrors that meet expectations?"
- Probably a couple million people who shot their foot with their own cut-off nose as ammunition
We will almost certainly see more bad news in context of global democracy and rise authoritarianism/plutocracy. Unfortunately, it seems that the US is entering a permanent oligarch-fueled "bread and circuses" phase (Big Macs and iPhones for the modern equivalent?).
Damn, that already feels like a million years ago. You didn't have to be a news junkie like me to see that quote and know that Trump lost the only debate the coward showed up to. Literally unfit to lead. Yet people just said "don't care, want boot!" and voted him in anyway. So embarrassed for my stupid country...
I don't even think it's that deep. Same thing happened in 2016. "I know how to end the war in the middle east, i know more than the secret service."
And americans shake their fat fists, "yeah, i know more than the secret service too, and i know how to end the middle east conflict. We have so much in common"
It's definitely at least that deep. Russia didn't go into overdrive trying to elect him because they think he's going to be tougher on them than Biden.
We've been through this before too! Does nobody remember??? His entire shtick is that he thinks he can walk into the room and just use his "dad voice" to get everyone to do what he wants. And if it doesn't work it's because of "woke".
well, he could cut off the supplies that are being sent to this pointless conflict and send em to Bibi. This solves both problems by removing both Ukraine and Palestine from the world as problems. A master plan that takes no real thought
eta: wow, I hope this hate keeps coming. Personal attacks on someone on your side is great
