    Well, that plus his awful foreign policy, awful energy policy, awful fiscal and economic policies, and his sniffing of young girls. Nothing wrong!

    Me and @Astrodome are wagering 1k on the 2024 elections. Would you wanna join in on the actions? You can get even money on the field vs biden.

    You can wager any sum you wish. Anyone else want in on the action is more than welcome @Commodore @Salvy @AroundTheWorld

    I'll match anything you folks wanna wager

    Your average voter doesn't see anything wrong with Biden's foreign policy. Or really energy policies. Fiscally he has the CHIPS act and infrastructure plans and a booming hot economy despite all the warnings of a recession. Inflation came back down (which if it was 8% going into the election he'd lose). Gas is still cheap. Average voters don't associate him with sniffing girls.

    Biden is old. People and voters specifically do notice that. They see him falling down or hear him getting off script and messing up what he is supposed to say.

    But when he is compared to either Trump or DeSantis, he is the clear choice. He is a clear choice to even California's Gavin Newsom.

    Since inflation is down, unemployment is low, and consumer confidence is up... republicans are frustrated by their efforts to impeach Biden, so they go after his... dog?

    Try wagering on a sports game and then watch the same game. It's 1000x more intense and fun when you have money on the line. You're going keep spinning braindead biden conspiracies every day until 2024 you might as well have some $$$ to make it fun?

    If biden gets convicted you automatically win your wager. Biden doesn't even have to loss

    I just donate to the candidates themselves. But that's also why the DLCC won't stop calling me.

    That $123,900 in the end buys a lot of influence (literally none)

    Yes.

    Sure, there were forays in that direction. Maybe Russia would beat the odds and build a strong democracy and then it'd have been great to have them join the community of nations. But were we willing to leave the low-hanging fruit -- adding Warsaw Pact countries to NATO that were afraid of Russia -- to give Russia it's best chance? No, we weren't willing to do that. We picked apart their old empire. We took Czech, Hungary, Poland, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia, Croatia, and Albania into NATO. Using corruption and authoritarianism, they kept on the European side only Belarus and Ukraine (and you can count Georgia since it borders NATO member Turkey). Now Ukraine wants to switch sides, opening a highway for US and European tanks straight into Russia. It makes them uneasy about their security. And, we knew it would make them uneasy about their security, we just didn't care. I still don't care.

    So sure, I agree with you, this is Russia's aggression. This is their war and their fault. But I'm not going to put blinders on, and neither should you, that this is somehow coming out of the blue. There were debates back in the '90s with Americans arguing we should not expand NATO because it might make Russia feel cornered and trigger a violent reaction. We knew this could come. Bill Clinton argued recently that he tried to help Russia become a great democracy, but he needed to expand NATO to hedge the bet in case they didn't. Well, they didn't, and now they feel cornered because we cornered them. Great call by Bill Clinton, in my view. That doesn't mean we started this war. It means we outmaneuvered them diplomatically so badly that the only way they saw to get back was to start a fight.
