    That aid is supposed to last them deep into 2025.

    He's not gonna get all of it at once because then he'd tell Trump to **** off, and he's not gonna get cash.

    I think there was a separate package before that last deal for keeping their economy alive.

    So are you for or against sending aid? Tell us what your stance is. I'm confused.

    I have always been against giving Ukraine aid. It's so blatantly obvious everyone has been raiding the coffers and the Biden administration is at fault.
    We are not funding a war against Russia. We are giving away 10s of billions to who knows what and you have been OK with this

    Looks like the new administration will be wiping up Bidens little European war. Now that the war mongering NCPs have been put on notice that NATO admission was never an option, we can move on from this chapter.
    Democrat NCPs are stupid.

    LOL..... You are truly lost down a rabbit hole of misinformation.

    Russia starts a war of conquest and you call it it "Bidens little European War"? Truly pathetic.

    Why is this thread still alive? The Ukraine War ended within the first 24 hours.

    It happened because the Biden democrats were weak, ruled by old people who are barely alive anymore. Nobody had a clue what was going on and Putin wasn't going to waste the opportunity with a bunch of dumbass weak liberals in power.

    Tell me how those sanctions worked so well. lol. Nobody listened to them. Im not a fan of using tariffs but bro.

    You really couldn't write this s**t.
    And Russia gets to walk over Ukraine, perhaps to Poland's door and threaten it.

    It is genuinely hilarious how butt hurt you get anytime someone attacks trump. Not even @Salvy gets as defensive as you do when someone attacks trump.

    Does your boomer ass have a statue of trump you worship daily? Honestly?

    If true, clearly that was a miscalculation as those "dumbass weak liberals" provided Ukraine the intel, weapon systems, and munitions needed to halt a much larger country's war of conquest. Because of Biden democrats, Russia is in a much weaker place and had a major setback.

    It was your side slow rolling aid and holding it up. There's a reason why Putin's propaganda pushes for all non US intervention.

    Considering how the US wasn't going to get directly involved militarily, sanctions have been one of the few levers we could pull on Russia. Hard to argue that the Russian economy is in a healthier place pre sanctions. Putin certainly wants to stop the economic pain for Russia but still has to save face.

    So your roll back is now "Putins economy isn't doing better than prewar". A country at war doesn't need to do better. They just need to stay solvent or else lose power. Never once was this an issue with Putin. Feel free to worship Prigozins failed attempt to overthrow Putin. He is worse than Putin.

    As I mentioned, Russia and Ukraine have found a clever way to fight a low cost war that didn't involve destroying multimillion defenseless vehicles. The cost of war has gone down thanks to technology and that isn't necessarily a good thing.

    People act like Russia has lost. The only loser was Ukraine. And the US is here to make claims to their lands, promising to rebuild Trumps Democracy in Ukraine ran by blackrock. I will reassure you Russia is getting something too. Crimea is complete theirs now. Maybe US gets Greenland (I am stretching here). Russia will probably dominate the European Energy market because Germany is so ****ing clueless. US will start distancing itself from Europe economically, and let China dominate. US takes N/S American markets, with Mexico becoming our biggest manufacturers instead of China. The Saudis and Israel carve up the middle east.

    The Putin Piss Babies must be very excited about Donald's trip to see the flaccid Putin dong.

    Euros are terrified but there's no use pointing fingers. That bald Danish guy I sometimes post in this thread is near meltdown mode and even threw Biden under the bus in one video.

    Trump hasn't made a full decision and it's more like he's at the casino royale table with the cards he's dealt with. Folding to Putin would make him weak and undermine his tariff strategy of looking strong by bullying everyone else.

    ... lol he already looks weak. He's inviting Putin to visit the usa on a state visit even before he gets any concessions from him

    Hesgeth said this morning he's not letting Ukraine into NATO, so whatever happens they're screwed. As soon as the war ends, start the countdown to Moscow's next try.

    There's always been a hard case for EU membership, but no one knows how Trump negotiates by design.

    Even Blinken calling for NATO admission could be seen as a negotiation tactic for the EU to step in.

    I think it's more than fair to ask the EU to legitimately own it rather than offloading true backing onto NATO.

    You are so full of ****. Those who are weak are those who were foolish enough to vote for trump. You and those like you helped put that creature in the White House. We are seeing the result play out now and it is a catastrophe.
