    The downside to elected officials. Jobs requiring expertise are handled by unqualified people where some are just plain idiots.

    unclear how Biden could take credit for what would be a miraculous accomplishment by the Ukrainian armed forces.

    Probably using our weapons that Congress allocates to them that Trump tried to hold back on his "Perfect" traitorous call.

    Think about that mindset for a second.

    "I need a country to be invaded by another country so the guy I didn't want to get elected can look bad. The Ukrainian peoples homes and lives that are at stake can pound sand, USA, USA, USA, MAGA, MAGA,MAGA, LETS GO BRANDON. . . . . . . "

    Meanwhile the same people complain about the price of gas going up .30 cents. Ukrainian's homes are being bombed and these idiots complain about paying 3 extra dollars for 10 gallons of gas. Bunch of entitled, unempathetic, non contributing zeros.

    It does not matter what is right or wrong anymore just who we can outrage and can make look bad so we can feel better about ourselves. We as a country, socially, politically, and morally are in big trouble.

    This is a serious situation that has the potential to go very bad and all some people can focus on is their political leanings and how they can prove to people that they are right.

    Similiar thing with what happened in Kazakhstan and the reaction from the MAGA-hard crypto bros.

    Umm.... not sure where you've been the last year, but Biden has been a complete disaster well before the Ukraine war broke out. Runaway inflation, wide open southern border, the Afghanistan withdrawal disaster, COVID policies, high crime rates, the list goes on and on. Democrat policies simply are not effective.

    Really? If Ukraine holds it’ll be because of a lot of things but a HUGE piece of the equation is our NATO forces at the border playing a key role in getting supplies to their troops, and I think the Biden admin has proven that their intelligence is on point. From a strategy standpoint, Zelensky and his generals have the best intelligence in the world telling them where and where not to be, what’s coming and when etc.

    Should he take credit though??… hell no. If Ukraine holds it’ll be the ultimate display of heroism that’ll go down in history. That credit will be with the Ukrainian people and the leadership of Zelensky. He COULD take some credit but the Ukrainians hopefully will be the ones walking tall if they can hold.

    They think they can do the Singapore Model with 1.5 billion people. It's seriously some weird 20th century dystopian novel come true.

    Their attitude has gone 180 from the early 2000s. They're probably more worried about a democratic uprising or reform than a better economy.

    Russia still isn’t our biggest geopolitical foe, it’s China.

    Absolutely - a democratic uprising means they go to jail so yeah, that's their number one priority. But they also want money money money.

    At the end of the day, everyone wants money and control.

    It's always the same useful idiots / trolls exploiting a tragedy to inflame political divisions.

    Dude you guys just keep drinking the hate the liberal koolaid. See the problem is that over the past 20 years, you simply whine whine whine about every single liberal / democratic. When do you start to ask yourself how manipulated you've been?

    Either you are knowing that you are lying, or you are clueless to the b.s you drink. Because otherwise you'd have a more level headed evaluation of things. You don't.

    Catch up buddy, every knows the countries involved. Ukraine means nothing to you, it's just a tool for you to practice your partisan politics. Your loyalties lie more to Putin than Biden. Sad.
