I see they’re trying to walk back the “dictator” outburst

[Politics] Donald Trump, US President
- Thread starter Zeberdi
- Start date
I personally cannot see the US going to war with Europe based on countries increasing their help and support to Ukraine. It's a flimsy premise.

He nearly was but still wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up the fifth one on that list after JFK
The US military swear allegiance to the Constitution, not the President nor Congress. The most senior folk in every branch of the military I've ever met (and over my career I've met a lot) are intelligent and take their constitutional roles very seriously. This would be a factor in whether US forces deploy or not. Sure, under normal circumstances the military will follow their political masters - but we're not in 'normal circumstances'...

No, I did not mean Trump would go to war with us, he would watch Russia and Europe battle it out, and then when both sides are down on their knees, he will come in and pick through the carcasses and what is left of Europe and rape our countries of any assets.

Steve Bannon flashing a Nazi salute at the CPAC conference, similar to what Musk did a few weeks ago.
They are Neo fascists, The all new rebranded 21st century version of Nazis, who have mainly learned how to hide the outward appearances of fascism, but still to slowly propogate its message.
Little by little they are taking people down a well trodden path of evil, aligning with global fascist parties and moving towards a new world fascist order.

And make a bit of dosh on the side. That's the important thing!Good idea! We can just overlook the fact that he's a Putin-supporting fascist who likes to peddle lies and Russian disinformation in order to spread hate, cause social division and bring down democratic societies.

Terrible thing to say, maybe, but it wouldn't surprise me if Trump had something to do with that attack.
Twelve killed in strikes on Ukraine as White House urges Zelensky to reach minerals deal - live updates
Six people have also been injured in Russian strikes over the past day, with homes and infrastructure hit.www.bbc.com
White House asking Ukraine to hand over access their minerals in exchange for aid. This really is the worst kind of blackmail. This is utterly disgusting. Anyone who still supports this man should be ashamed of themselves.

Sadly, I suspect we're living through a similar decade to the 1930s where war is inevitable. Everyone knows who the players are and their self-interests. If Putin is allowed to keep the territory gained through war, he will strengthen his position there and go again. Maybe at the remaining Ukraine, but maybe at Poland. Or Norway. And that means war with Europe. I agree with the suggestions that Trump would stay out of it until it was advantagous to himself to step in.

Good point I’m sure Elon will help hold his stomachs out of the way.You assume he’d be able to see them below all the blubber

I should coco
apparently he’s now a ‘courageous leader’. They really are clueless…
It's pretty clear the orange man-baby just had a tantrum and spat the dummy out because Zelenskyy actually had the balls to call him out, and now the administration is trying to clean up the toys and put them back in the pram because the entire international community essentially went "WTF??"
It’s clearly a fine line between a dictator and a courageous leader.
On a lighter note, these videos gave me an unusual amount of joy today

I just can’t see how Putin, after 3 years in a war he expected to last 3 days and is now desperate to get out of due to massive losses and an economy falling to bits, where he hasn’t achieved 10% of his objectives, would decide to try again against a far better armed country like Poland, or indeed even a whole continent. It would make no sense whatsoever.

Fantastic ! I really enjoyed that. In future, with regard to Mr Genocide's war in Ukraine, I'm only prepared to watch videos of Russian apartment blocks being reduced to rubble, and Russian armoured divisions, munition dumps or warships ablaze. I still find it difficult to celebrate when I see footage of dead Russian soldiers, because I know that they are some mother's sons. However, Mr Genocide and now the orange one appear to be working on my inability to eulogise over the slaughter of Russian innocents. At their present rate of progress, I'll soon contrive no pleasure from any war footage, apart from videos of Moscow reduced to a sheet of glass.
That's a good point, which I hadn't really considered. I suppose though if the world stands back over Ukraine, he might take a couple of years to rebuild and then make another move.
