True, but now there are many more millionaires than before.

Russia will not lose this war. They think losing is not an option. Doesn't matter who gets in.

Yeah, seriously, frick this noise.
Tell Zelensky the criminal, rights abuser & professional grifter the jig is up. Inform we are withdrawing our support, and that they must sue for peace, surrendering what's been lost.
Unfortunately, our President seems far more concerned about the territorial integrity of Ukraine, Hamas/Gaza (same thing in my view) and Haiti than our own country and potentially best ally, Israel.
Disgracio.

There are three options left on the table, and the timeline for them to be chosen is less than 60 days.
1. NATO Joins
2. Ukraine Surrenders
3. Russia takes what they want.
You want option 2 or 3.
If NATO enters, this world will rapidly be thrown into utter chaos. USA/NATO started this whole shite to begin with by poking the bear for decades.

approximately 1000 yards of territory a day

All that to gain marginally more than they already controlled through their proxies before the war ever started. Yeah, putin is sun tsu, Napoleon, Hannibal, Scipio Africanus, Belisarius, and Alexander all wrapped up in one. And his plan to stop the spread of NATO on his border by getting several long neutral countries to join NATO is sheer brilliance.
Putin has masterfully outlasted Ukraine by depleting them of troops, and western ammunition.

Pretty much, but the idea was to make Russia pay for the ground they took such as by sinking their Black Sea fleet.
American tax payers paid too.

When does your OT Infantry Battalion ship out? Let us all know so that we can be there to give you a proper send off. Hero.

The only sort of aid Ukraine should get from the U. S. and Europe is all of our male military age "immigrants".

It was always a war of attrition and Ukraine never had the numbers in their favor for that type of war.

You are laying the praise on a little thick aren’t you? It’s Russia versus fricking Ukraine. Lol.
Ukraine funded and armed by about 30 fricking countries. Ukraine also had over 400,000 soldiers with combat experience before the invasion.

As soon as Ukraine surrenders (and they will), the DC swamp will be ready to send them billions to "rebuild", of which 40% or more will flow back to the swamp creatures.

That’s a great idea instead of flying them to Martha’s Vineyard fly them to Kiev

Nothing has been masterful. It was to have been over 18 months ago.
This was from 2018, listing Ukraine as the 10th most powerful European military
quote:LINK
Total population: 44,033,874
Total military personnel: 1,182,000
Total aircraft strength: 240
Fighter aircraft: 39
Combat tanks: 2,214
Total naval assets: 25
Defense budget: $4.88 billion
A couple numbers jump out: over 1 million military personnel, over 2200 tanks.
They were part of the USSR until say 1990, so a lot of that would be Soviet gear comparable to what the Russians have.
And the Russians went in somewhat methodically, not doing the blitz tactics the US does.
This was always going to be a grind, where the Russians win with superior numbers. Ukraine also doing "Soviet" defensive tactics, trying to bleed them into reconsidering. And now with NATO donating gear, to see how well things work against the Russians.
Anyone expecting Ukraine to collapse like Iraq was dreaming.

Wait you mean the country with 140 milllion people is beating the country with 40 million people?
