Person of the Utmost Stupidity

Putin Orders Trump: Ukraine’s Surrender

Putin Orders Trumps Unconditional Surrender.

To be honest I find him amusing, I bet his lips move when he reads what he types. he/it/they (i bet he just loves pro-nouns) are a reminder that world is populated by wankers.

I hear you, however this is a thread where people have skin in the game, family in a warzone.

@raymondo, @Eric the meek, @peterward and others have done a better job than any war correspondent on trying to highlight and analyze information on what’s going on in Ukraine, and it’s more than disappointing that some clown with access to a keyboard has chosen this thread to try and get a reaction from other posters.

I try to think kindly of other people on here (and generally) but it’s absolutely fine by me if @cunning fergus falls down the stairs and breaks his neck.

Ye gods people, stick him on ignore.

This has been a decent informative thread for years, and it’s become one troll’s personal wind-up thread. Every time I come on here now and there’s more than a page of updates, it’s always people responding to something idiotic posted by a single poster.

He’s been on my ignore list for several years, so I’m spared his idiocy, but it’s depressing to see good people wasting their time responding.

Deprive him of the attention he craves, it’s all that stops him. He’s no genuine desire to know anything regarding this conflict, he just wants to keep you responding to him, as it dilutes the overall useful and informative nature of the thread.

Quite, I don’t have him on ignore but I don’t read anything he posts or the replies to him

Pathetic Orange Tossers Utterly Senile.

I'm not looking forward to hearing Krasnov's conclusions from his chat with Putin.

He'll sell Ukraine down the river and then blame it all on Zelensky not accepting outcome of the phone call.

The sooner we see the back of Krasnov the better.

I'm not looking forward to it either.

But I hope and believe that Ukraine is prepared for all eventualities. Including not accepting it, and fighting on without the USA.

This is also my expectation sadly. I'm not expecting anything positive from it. Maybe more pretense from tRump on the sanctions he MIGHT unleash on Russia.

There are two choices. Either he gets a ban or he is challenged at every opportunity.

 

[Eric the meek]

A pressure tactic?

We have to be ready for that scenario too. Importantly replacing US intelligence.

 

[Eric the meek]

Now that we know the ambush in the Oval Orifice was a pressure tactic, Ukraine will be wary of being pressured a second time.

Good.

He talks such absolute shite, how can any person with a brain cell not see this? Absolute Charlatan

And if he was that clever he wouldn’t admit to it until well after any agreement was signed. he lives in another world where he thinks he’s the smartest person in the room.

Trump said he holds all the cards but he's the sort of player who does a little cheer when he's got a pair of aces.

A narcissist might want people to know about the power and control he’s exerting over them. Plus, it’s obvious by now that Trump knows he can say these things with impunity. He’s not wrong about that.

We could start with “grab them by the pussy” and list the terrible things he’s said publicly without any real political consequences (media hand-wringing doesn’t count). He survived two impeachment attempts, felony convictions, porn star hush money, a coup attempt and still got reelected. No surprise he feels untouchable.

His health will be the only thing that gets him. Hopefully one last burger too many and the old arteries wave a white flag.
That's a done deal Trumpolini. No coming back from that.

If you could guarantee one of Trump or Putin could meet that fate, which would you choose?

Putin for me.

Yep, next time in the Oval office Zelenskiy should call Trump and Vance traitors to democracy, and Musk a narcissistic coward...then say a few days late he was just being sarcastic, just a little joke.
