can't wait for a reporter to ask Trump the question below.

Anton Gerashchenko
@Gerashchenko_en
I appreciate and respect the United States and its officials, but I think there must be some misunderstanding here and I hope to get some clarification.

If, as stated by the U.S. Secretary of State, the U.S. and Russia are waging a proxy war on the territory of Ukraine, then on what basis is Ukraine expected to owe the U.S. $350 billion?

I think the facts on the ground suggests there is a large disconnect between what occurs on the battlefield and what the Russians say. Maybe the Russians never plan on using nukes offensively because of the severe risk it poses to themselves, which is why they use the rhetoric so freely and divorced from actual battlefield conditions.



Yeah I don't think they would use them offensively either. Putin isn't insane... he is very sane, in my opinion. He is a bad actor, thug, murderer, whatever else you want to call him. Xi is similar, though I think Xi is considerably smarter than Putin. Sane people don't give up mansions, sports cars, and banging Russian gymnasts because they want a piece of territory or whatever else.

The risk is that you back them into a corner and they use them because they feel they have no other choice (even though that in all likelihood wouldn't be true). Start flinging missiles deep into the territory of a nuclear armed country and things can go haywire quickly. Thankfully they haven't to this point.

But a lot less likely if the strikes are in retaliation for your missiles striking well inside your country.

US destroying world order- Zaluzhnyi

That is exactly what we elected him to do.

Take down the globalist international rules based order.

I love it.

You think that matters to a nuclear armed country?

I get it, but we have to treat nuclear armed countries differently. Even if we shouldn't have to. Its an unfortunate reality of our world. The world would be a much better place if that weren't the case, because bad actors who have nukes could be held more responsible for their actions and wouldn't feel as emboldened by them.

Great.

Get on board. No Troskyites allowed though. Next up: Get out of Nato.

The globalist days are over. How will those European Welchers pay for all of those social welfare programs and a military?

We are entering the Golden Age.

If a nuclear armed country gets upset and launched nukes because another country defends themselves then so be it. There will be nuclear wars all the time if that were the case.

I truly understand where you are coming from, but why hadn’t Russia responded with nukes after Ukraine launched missiles against Russian industry? Why didn’t they launch nukes after Ukraine invaded Russia?

I don’t know, but I’ve got to believe that there’s a good reason why they. Perhaps they know the use of nukes will paint them in a very bad light and thru do not want that.

Those damn Haitians are going also. Any of them that were on Dementia Joe's temporary protected status list. A scam to flood the country with aliens from shithole countries.

As to Zelensky's actual popularity in Ukraine -

quote:

Of note, Zelensky currently leads in future election polling.




quote:

His primary challenger, former Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valerii Zaluzhnyi, is arguably more of a war hawk


They don't want any part of Zaluzhnyi, believe me.

Did one of Zelensky's buddies that was paid by USAID conduct that poll also?

Between that 240k and Coeur du Tiger and his merry band of NAFOs heading to Ukraine, the Ukes are ready to start kicking arse again on the battlefield.

What point?

I don’t recommend foreign troops in Ukraine st all unless it’s part of a negotiated peace deal.

No foreign troops included Russian and N Korean.

Trump is going to look good as he receives his Nobel Peace Prize.

Well deserved.
