Russia invades Ukraine again?

Genius King Trump may have just convinced those lazy cheap freeloading Europeans to finally build their army back up

Putin invaded Ukraine three years ago and Europe was meh....

we needed to reinforce our defences anyway, but frump made no friends, and he's actually putting his rear far too close to vlad's dick anyway for anybody to trust him... maybe he got his way, but the US will not like the end results and side effects.

it's sad, that guy seems able and determined to make the USA a third world state before he gets out of the white house

[pErvinalia]

The only way they'll get him out is in cuffs, or a body bag.

[Svartalf]

in cuffs is unlikely as hell, given there's no way congress will impeach him, body bag is desirable, but likely not to happen before he's finished his term.

[pErvinalia]

You think he will willingly leave after four years? That's optimistic.

FWIW

World's richest man, Elon Musk, has warned that United States of America is going bankrupt and dollar's value could be nothing if precautionary measures are not taken soon. Elon Musk’s alarm centers on the ballooning U.S. national debt, which currently stands at $36.17 trillion. In fiscal year 2024, interest on US federal debt totaled $1.1265 trillion, while the federal government collected $4.92 trillion in revenue.

willingly is a bit of a strong term, but I thing he'll be old and tired and all the younger predators with big teeth will want their turn at the oval office and will make him understand that if he doesn't leave as planned, he might do a JFK.

Tax cuts will fix that.

Firstly, Europe has contributed a lot, both militarily and financially to Ukraine during the war, Definitely not "meh"...

However, the US has a point, in that most countries in Europe have not reached the level of defence spending that is needed, given the reality of a rapacious Russia. So, the one good thing about recent actions from the US has been to produce a wake-up call for European countries to significantly increase their defence spending, both for aid to Ukraine and the collective defence of Europe.

Trumpiandias did ask Elon first if one of his SpaceX rockets could discreetly drop a Giant Russian Mutant Space Octopus on Paris.

I can't really edit it in any wsy.
Medvedev on Twitter:
WHY WILL UKRAINE DISAPPEAR? BECAUSE NOBODY NEEDS IT
1. Europe doesn’t need Ukraine. The forced support of the Nazi regime, by the American mentor’s order, has put Europeans into a financial and political inferno. All for the sake of bandera’s unterukraine, that even the snobby, insolent Polacks don’t take for a valid country, and time and again toss in the issue of its western areas anschluss. There’s a nice perspective ahead: to permanently put the nouveau-Ukrainian blood-sucking parasites on the decrepit EU’s arthritis-crippled neck. That’ll be the final fall of Europe, once majestic, but robbed off by degeneration.
2. The US doesn’t need Ukraine. True, the military and sanction campaigns are attempted for PR by political blabbermouths, who long ago attested to their impotence and imbecility. Average Americans don’t understand what “Ukraine” is, and where “it” is. Most of them won’t show this “power” on the map on the first take. Why won’t the US establishment focus on inflation and job issues, or emergencies in their home States, instead of a country 404, unbeknownst to them? Why does so much dough go across the ocean?
Sooner or later, they’ll ask for that. Then, storming of the Capitol in January 2021 would seem like scout games.
3. Africa and Latin America don’t need Ukraine. The hundreds of millions spent by US on pointless fights in Ukraine, could finance many development programmes for Latin American and African states.
Latin America is gringos’ backyard – that’s what they’ve been rubbing in for decades. Africa’s had its share of suffering from the genocide, and colonial dependence, imposed by former western slave traders. That’s why the people of African huts and Latin American favelas ask a very reasonable question: for their former suffering and present-day loyalty, why is somebody else rewarded – very, very far away?
4. Asia doesn’t need Ukraine. By Russia’s example, they see “colour” technologies at work to eradicate the largest competing powers. They understand what scenario the America-led collective West has for them if they disobey. “Help us to overcome Russia, and we’ll soon come to you”, the utterly brazen Western leaders tell them. Such gigantic countries as India, China, and other Asia-Pacific states face the big enough challenge of post-pandemic economic recovery, let aside the drugged clowns, with their whining for aid.
“We are not interested in you”, Asia tells their messengers, responding to the calls to support Ukraine and confine Russia. The country, geopolitically many times closer to Asian powers, the one that historically has proven itself a reliable strategic partner. Do Asian giants need such headache coming from former colonisers?
5. Russia doesn’t need Ukraine. A threadbare quilt, torn, shaggy, and greasy. The new Malorossiya of 1991 is made up of the artificially cut territories, many of which are indigenously Russian, separated by accident in the 20th century. Millions of our compatriots live there, harassed for years by the Nazi Kiev regime. It is them who we defend in our special military operation, relentlessly eradicating the enemy. We don’t need unterukraine. We need Big Great Russia.
6. Finally, its own citizens don’t need the Nazi-headed Ukraine. That’s why out of 45 million people there’re only some 20 million remaining. That’s why those who stayed want to leave for any place: the hated Poland, EU, NATO, to be America’s 51nd state. Joining the Antarctic with its pinguins will also be fine. As long as it’s quiet, and the food’s good. The ruling junta’s criminal ambitions forced Ukrainians to beg and roam around the countries and continents, searching for a better life. All that is for an obscure European perspective. Or rather, to let the harlequin in a khaki tricot and his band of thievish Nazi clowns to put the money stolen from the West into their offshore accounts. Would ordinary Ukrainians need that?
Nobody on this planet needs such a Ukraine. That’s why it will disappear.

[Sean Hayden]

So what, Americans don't support Ukraine because of anything it's done or will do, but because of who's attacking it. Christ, why do you think the first thing Trump did to disrupt that support was call Zelensky a dictator?

Loathing guys like Putin is as 'merican as a cheeseburger and fries. In fact, I'm surprised we don't have a happy meal toppled dictators toy set: 'look mom, his head comes off!'
