Im not entirely sure how serious you are here but the Biden handsy stuff has been gone over and over again and nearly everyone, including Biden himself has admitted that him being affectionate in this day and age, regardless of intent is inappropriate. When Biden gave that speech on the 2020 campaign trail he acknowledged how physical touch can make women feel uncomfortable, etc. The fact is Biden is a grandpa and if you are ever around senior men in their golden years almost all of them do or say some awkward stuff that has no ill intent. To the best of my knowledge Joe Biden has never been credibility accused of sexual assault, rape, and certainly never been found liable by the court for such acts. Does he do awkward grandpa stuff… yes definitely…. But if you have a relationship with a grandpa or other senior men you’ll understand how common it is and how it typically awkwardness is well intended and does not offend the women or girls they can be awkward with sometimes. You just aren’t going to credibly make a case that one shouldn’t vote for Biden and therefore vote for Trump just because he’s acted like a grandpa. You could make a case about age if Trump also wasn’t also basically the same age, and showing worse cognitive decline. So not really sure what point you are trying to make but posting those videos to try and smear Biden seems a bit MAGAy… and in the past I never thought you were at that BigTexx, Bobby level but maybe things have changed lately.
I don't deny that Biden does creepy stuff. That's one of the things that bothers me about him. The alternative has already been found by a court of law to have committed sexual assault and has said multiple times as a celebrity that he can grab women by their kitties.
Ukraine has lost -- spending money on them at this point is throwing good money after bad. What are we up to $200 billion in aid to Ukraine? Wasted in a losing effort. Russia controls their key energy and transportation resources (mining, steel, ports). Ukraine's industrial economy will wither over time as it is strangled. Redirect our taxpayer money to better causes.
Ladies and Gentleman... Clutchfans own champion of appeasement. The Neville Chamberlain of the Houston Rockets BBS!
Old parts and equipment that would have been parked in Arizona - keep giving em all our old stuff and support them with Ammo. DD
It’s one of the other ironies that posters who years ago were very pro war and accusing those who opposed the Iraq war of being traitors and appeasers are now arguing for surrender and appeasement.
Yet itching for a civil war against their own fellow countryman. People never shut up about how a second civil war is coming with zero evidence to support that claim other than FoxNews and other right wing propaganda outlets talking about people talking about it. Then there’s the fact that their cleric cult leader openly has campaigned on invading Mexico which doesn’t seem to bother them one bit. Yeah they are certainly no John Lennon’s in the MAGA right. They are just simply gaslighting the left when they whine about Ukraine spending. We all know they don’t care about military spending one bit.
It’s also another example of lack of principles or intellectual consistency. The Republican Party went in ten years from the party of Neo-Wilsonian intervention to 1920’s Isolationism. Many of those who were thundering the idea that it was the US duty to confront dictators and spread democracy are now insisting we should abandon democratic allies while supporting a candidate who openly admires anti democratic dictators.
Once Putin has conquered Ukraine ... Putin wants Alaska back Offering his hard-right ultranationalist base something new to cheer about, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared the 1867 sale of Alaska to the United States illegal. Alaska is now a territory of the Russian people, currently suffering a hostile occupation by the United States, according to a new decree by Vladimir Putin. Giving in to his base and winning a few points at home, Putin is claiming territory in Europe, Asia, Scandinavia, and Alaska. Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a new decree relating to Moscow's historic real estate holdings abroad, a move interpreted by ultranationalist bloggers as a foundation for future revanchism against Russia's neighbors—and even the U.S. The decree, signed by the president late last week, allocates funds for the search, registration, and legal protection of Russian property abroad, including property in the former territories of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. This would include Alaska, swathes of eastern and central Europe, large chunks of central Asia, and parts of Scandinavia. Russia's Foreign Ministry and its presidential administration's Foreign Property Management Enterprise are directed to carry out the work, ordered to find, register, and protect "property" in question. NEWSWEEK The retorts on social media are entertaining:
Young American males are too fat to fight. Ruskies are going to eat our lunch and take back Alaska like its a game of Risk.
The modern Western armaments industry doesn't/isn't prepared to produce artillery shells in the quantity Ukraine needs. Modern military doctrine for militaries like the U.S. do not forecast such a need for artillery shells because more modern systems are expected to be the primary/most decisive armaments used by modern Western militaries. Unfortunately, Ukraine is fighting an antiquated style of warfare because their military resembles a second rate 1980s military more then a modern NATO military. Also unfortunately, militaries like Russia/NK/Iran are relatively well equipped to fight a war in the style of a second rate 1980s military. Similarly, we would not have many dreadnoughts to send them or the capacity to build dreadnoughts and send them.
