Trump tells Zelensky 'make a deal or we're out' in angry White House meeting
-
ROFL Krasnov Trump and Vanker failed to make a deal, a bunch of losers.
-
I actually love this idea of anonymous crowdfunding by the masses. But how could we make this happen? I guess it would have to be initiated from the Ukrainian government.
-
I can already guess the excuse: "Europe started the war by not negotiating a peace deal with Russia when it came to Ukraine."
-
? I'm from the UK, I'm saying I hope we're not as overtly sleazy with our support.
-
Fun fact: Pinkerton is tanned, rested, and ready to go.
-
Holy fucking smokes. This was without a doubt the cringiest, most uncomfortable display of lack of professionalism and pure second-hand embarassment I've ever seen from a president and a vice president.
I have so much respect for Zelensky for putting up with that. What an absolute circus.
-
Even worse, look at this bullshit: https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-844166
Israel is lobbying the United States to keep Syria weak and decentralized, including by letting Russia keep its military bases there to counter Turkey's growing influence in the country, four sources familiar with the efforts said.

I mean, the framework is already in place with crypto. The silk road ran for years and facilitated enormous amounts of illegal activity, and in the end who got in trouble? Like one fucking guy.
It's honestly no different than a bookie. You facilitate the transactions and keep a portion of the cut for each transaction. The key is keeping the payor, payee, and broker anonymous

I mostly agree, but I think the list needs Germany's excellent Leopard (2) tanks, the modern APC variants and all their industry.
Europe also has a lot of good marine yards that can make Navy vessels and submarines.
And it can drum up drone production in a rapid tempo where needed.
What's more, European Steel and metallurgy are out of the door of higher grade than the US, Russia and Chinese productions.
This is a boon to produce heavy armor quickly.So when push comes to shove Europe can no doubt ramp up a unified military industry rapidly, no need for it to take a decade, and keep finances in house.
Another factor that works against the Trump economy if he thoughtlessly pulls the plug on NATO -
yo....do republicans say this is awesome while also saying that gaza was a biden genocide? very curios as if the US pulls out, russia will destory ukraine and then probably europe.

its hard to believe peopel are on trumps side. also hard to believe they gave zelensky shit for not wearing a suit for some reason. while must walks around in a hat and T shirt. the maga double standard is fucking crazy.

do you not know that WE pay the tariff charges? or do you honestly believe that, example, Canada is just like "yeah we dont mind paying the 25% in our exports, we'll just cover that for you"
sorry but no. they will upcharge the export 25% to counter the tariff, then it gets sold to US for 25% more, then on the store shelf WE pay 25% more so cover the "losses"
if you dont think this is how it works. let me ask you a simple question scenario.
you have a lemonade stand. you sell for 1 dollar on the street. suddenly, someone says. hey i own this street. you have to pay me 25 cents to sell here.
do you continue to sell for 1 dollar and lose 25 cents per sale? or do you charge 1.25 to keep making the same profit?
if your answer was "id move to a different street" well then you cant comprehend a question and you are dodging it.
-
Exactly. We pay the tariffs. They don't need IRS when CBP is in charge of that.
-
Not really, no. US went there, destroyed a bunch of shit, played around for couple of decades, and went home. They didn't lose much (occasional humans don't count, who counts a bunch of kids with guns), that was basically a play so the ghouls can watch some people die, par for the course. US didn't lose anything substantial ever and never was in a war that was important for them ever since that one with Mexico.
-
I do agree, but it does take 3-5 years, unless the EU is willing to turn into a wartime economy. But the political will for that is just not there.
-
Sorry I misread: not crowdfunding assassinations, but the Ukrainian government and defence forces.
-
As they are physically closer to threat, they better be less dysfunctional.
-
its hard to believe peopel are on trumps side.
There are a lot of stupid Americans out there who are ride-or-die Trumpers who will believe anything he says.
Though there are more and more cases of people who voted for him and are now realizing "what did I do?!", it's too late now but it serves them right.
-
And to clarify, the deal wasn't even a peace deal. It was a "ceasefire now, then when Russia recuperates and starts again, we'll have 0 contingencies. See, what if a bomb dropped on your head right now? We can't predict the future!"

Republican positions donβt need ideological consistency. They just need to agree with Supreme Leader.
