Poking the Bear Again

[Smitty-48]

Why can’t Biden be lucky like Trump? Where’s Hanny to explain this?

the Administration is stirring this up deliberately it seems

every European ally is telling Ukraine to back down

it is only Washington which is encouraging Ukraine to stand up to the Russians

that's why this is such a big move by the Russians

Ukraine is not backing down because they feel like they have Washington backing them up

Russia is sending the message : America cannot save you

I say more follow the market

Russia is a huge market outside of the control of the Neoliberal Order

the big money would be in regime change, replacing Putin himself with a Neoliberal friendly regime

I think your observation that Russia is trying to leverage the fact that Europe doesn't feel like it can rely on America anymore is spot on.

Left to their own devices, Europe will choose to capitulate.

World Wars will tend to do that to an area.

You explained it perfectly. Trump gave away endless carrots.

It is good short term policy - mollify your adversaries.

So it wasn’t luck? I thought every Trump accomplishment was luck, or it was really someone else. He wasn’t a real investor, television personality or writer; anybody could have done it if they just had the money, time, inclination & luck.

What a lucky “World’s Most Admired Man.”

[Martin Hash]

Since everything he did I would have done too, makes me a buffoon just like him. Silly Martin: doctor, lawyer, accountant & engineer (world’s only-ever), you are such a numbnut if you have a similar value system as Trump.
