New York Post
Florida’s Gov. Ron DeSantis has branded Vladimir Putin a “war criminal” and demanded he be “held accountable” for his barbaric invasion of Ukraine.
Taking a tougher tone from his statement last week appearing to dismiss the year-long war as a “territorial dispute,” DeSantis now says Russia was WRONG to invade Ukraine and was WRONG to invade and take over Crimea in 2014, and won’t win the war.
And he’s made his strongest attack yet on Russia’s dictator, calling him a loser who is “basically a gas station with a bunch of nuclear weapons.”

DeSantis just lost several million potential voters.

Holy flip flop to neocon, Batman.

If these maniac losers are mad, then Ron is doing the right thing.

I’m starting to sour on him a little

Not a good look.

I just don’t think that’s a sufficient interest for us to escalate more involvement. I would not want to see American troops involved there. But the idea that I think somehow Russia was justified (in invading) – that’s nonsense.”

I think they have the right to that territory,” he replied. “If I could snap my fingers, I’d give it back to Ukraine 100%. But the reality is what is America’s involvement in terms of escalating with more weapons, and certainly ground troops I think would be a mistake. So, that was the point I was trying to make but Russia was wrong to invade. They were wrong to take Crimea.

"Putin is a tyrant and war criminal and the US shouldn't spend endless billions on a conflict in Ukraine" is probably the position of 90% of the GOP electorate
I'm sure it'll be devastating for him

You can be against the war and still think Putin should be held accountable, dumb@ss

Don't read the headline, read the article. People are either stupid or dishonest. Probably both.

Just like when Griffin told the MSM "I do NOT aprreciate DeSantis going after the tax status of Disney"...
Then Disney retains it.

You can think Putin is bad and also that the Ukraine is none of our business.

Becoming more and more like libs every day.
Deliberately misstating what he said and cherry picking
You people are 100% Dems now

Meh. I'd prefer him to just stay out of that shite. Most people don't give a frick about that war. Even though the msm portrays that shite as something that is gripping most Americans.
Stick with domestic topics. Stick with targeting woke shite.

Just another clue that he’s been bought.

“I think he’s got grand ambitions,” he said, “I think he’s hostile to the United States, but I think the thing that we’ve seen is he doesn’t have the conventional capability to realize his ambitions. And so, he’s basically a gas station with a bunch of nuclear weapons and one of the things we could be doing better is utilizing our own energy resources in the US. “We could be permitting natural gas pipelines, doing a lot in Alaska. That’s where he gets all his power and obviously, he’s influenced Europe by having so much energy. So, the way to hit Putin is to hit him with energy, but I do think if you look back, all the defense analysts, and me in the past, we over-estimated his conventional capability. This has been a huge blunder for him. Huge cost and you know we’ll see what ends up happening with his longevity in power, but this has been a loss for them.’
The horror!

I hate to be that guy, but I dislike the sheep more than the shepherd sometimes. Many are just along for a laugh, which I understand. But taking advantage of people who aren't capable of complex thinking is not right. The GOP could never win another election without getting their share of the bottom 35% of folks, so no getting away from it. But it sucks.

What is he supposed to be called?
Hero of the homeland?
Protector of children?
Peace maker?
I think I know some of the reasons why he/Russia invaded another country and warmongers here have blood on their hands too but it doesn't change the facts. Russia invaded Ukraine. You don't get a pass for nasty sh!t going down.
