Press conference is still delayed... Can't decide what to do.

Ukraine - Russia Conflict (Original Title: Things are heating up in the Donbass)
- Thread starter holdover
- Start date
Looks like Ukraine is getting it's ass kicked hard and fast. They don't seem to be putting up as much of a fight as was talked up.
It's hard to get accurate reports but it looks like Russia now controls up to 1/3 of the country already.

That should be a life lesson when you carry a big stick don't hand it in for a blade of grass because it will bite you in the ass at the end

From what I gather, there is Russian weakness in their planning and execution with a weak shock and awe that left much of Ukraine's defense still in place.
Eventually Ukraine sould be over powered (it's just math) but they've been a pain in the ass on 3 of the 4 current fronts.
This may be more drawn out than Putin hoped, and Putin may have over reached. Putin's capabilities may have been overhyped by the media in spite of being under estimated by Western leadership.

Are nukes more "green" than conventional weapons? Just wondering.

Lol. Yeah, there are targets and scenarios where they could be but you'd get kicked out of the Jane Fonda China Syndrome fan club. They better check with young Gretta first.

You really shouldn't be visiting it anyway.
Hopefully so. There are protests starting in russia but of course the police are squashing them because putin does not support freedom of expression.

Some of you all love to criticize Biden for encouraging aggression, whatever that means, and mocking anyone who "can't see" how Biden is doing so. Then you'll praise Trump for not allowing a Ukraine invasion on his watch.
But, somehow, no mention of how Trump immediately praised Putin for invading Ukraine today.
I am completely flummoxed by this train of thought. You say Biden is bad and Trump is good. Meanwhile, out of the last two people to be President, Biden is the one condemning Russian aggression and Trump is the one cheering it on!
Someone make it make sense.
Quick addendum... This is not a standard Orange Man Make Bad Tweet gaffe. This is a former U.S. President coming out in support of a foreign enemy who just invaded another sovereign nation on trumped up charges (not sorry for the unintentional pun). When you yell at Biden for encouraging aggression despite his rhetoric and actions against it, and praise Trump despite his rhetoric and actions in favor of aggression, I stat to wonder whose side you are on.

Russia doesn't need to be our enemy, but they will not accept double standards and our step by step continuous policy to erase Russian state off the map. They have legitimate security concerns.

JUST IN - Russia's military says it has knocked out Ukraine’s air defense assets and airbases.
Videos show Russian cruise missile reportedly striking airfield in Ivano-Frankivsk in Western Ukraine.

I bolded the ironic bit and underlined the bit inspired by observations from an alternate reality.

You HAVE to stop relying on legacy media for your information. IT IS ALL CORRUPTED!
Here's the original interview that they are spinning into "praising Putin":
Listen to it yourself. He clearly opposed Putin and Russia's actions. Trump didn't praise the invasion but admired the tactics used. He also seems to admire the way Putin is outsmarting the biden administration at every step. That's a GOOD thing. He views Putin as an adversary yet still respects his abilities. The second you don't respect a snake's fangs is the second you get bit. biden keeps getting bit and every snake in the world sees it.

Trump is far from perfect but I do not trust any mainstream news report on his remarks. He has been taken out of context so much I automatically discount anything that makes "the news."
Remember Yugoslavia? Where is it?

Position of strength, I couldn't begin to count the ways that the country was stronger under Trump, and people like Putin knew he wasnt a punk like this clown is. When someone like Putin smells weak ess he is going to take the opportunity to advance his cause. There are many ways Trump could have intervened or handled things to discourage Putin invading a sovereign country.
And honestly, I thought you did vote for him.
