Trump Pauses Military Aid to Ukraine After Clash With Zelenskiy

You're delusional if you think trump cares about any of that shit.
-
All the military equipment in the world can't make up for their recruitment and morale problems.
It's just reality, regardless of what's upvoted on these forums.

As far as I'm aware, the military, in the best case, will simply refuse to follow unlawful orders. There are formal processes to do so. That's part of military culture and law. Whether that system will hold up to Trump is unknown. When he issues unlawful orders, will soldiers simply refuse to comply? Unknown.
But one thing is for sure. It's not part of military culture to actively resist. There is no formal process for that to be protected or OK. That's simply insurrection and rebellion.

You should be blaming the people who voted for hillary clinton in the 2016 primary for why we have 12 years of trump.
They didn't want to give up their greed or entitlement, so this is what we got instead.
-
They will find a way and emerge victorious.
It's delusions like these that send men to die who otherwise wouldn't go.

Wait, you guys are getting houses at quarter of a million.???
-
Depends on the suburb, but that's the minimum.

OH SHIT!!111one
I didn't see this coming!

I don't think it's insurrection when our president is actively selling out our country to a hostile foreign power.

Might want to wait till the fort Knox audit. Might turn out the gold you buy doesn't exist

The peace agreement between Napoleon and Austria included Napoleon taking independent Venice.
It was kind of an awful elitist place but it was also the oldest democracy in the world at the time. Napoleon destroyed that, and all the moneataries. You can see the ruins of them around the lagoon if you visit.

Each time I read "Trump orders", "Trump does X", I always ask myself: "Wait, can he do that? Congress? House? Judiciary? Cheks? Balances? Hellooooooooooo...?"...
... but this is still the first few months of his second term. At this pace, he will be a literal king in a few more months.
A scary prospect to say the least, and I hope it's not too late for America to do something about this. This should not be normalized. This cannot be normalized.

The US wouldn’t stop military aid to Israel while the IDF destroyed hospitals and killed children and journalists among many other war crimes. They will freeze aid to Ukraine as it defends itself in a war of conquest. Evidence suggests the USA would rather align with criminals like Putin and Netanyahu than war victims.
-
Because the only meaningful political move for Republicans today is to follow Trump. If they push back they get cut from the pack and lose support.
-
Because congress is dominated by the oligarch sycophants as well.
-
That really is a stark contrast. What do the apologetics say about this?
-
Wouldn’t it be reasonable if another administration get in power and then need to purge all these positions of pro trump people?
Oh no! You have a great point for horror fans there.
I'd even say, it probably is somewhat necessary in order to resume administration. What a beautiful, postfactual dilemma:
The Reps fear an ideological, systemic witch hunt, which they use as an excuse to replace government workers. The new workers are ideologically aligned with the Reps, encouraged to assist the dismantling of non-Rep institutions and carry out the King's will above and beyond the law.
Now when votes swing the other way, the new administration kind of has to revert some of this damage to assume functioning.
Which is where the circle closes; the prophecy fulfills itself. Now the Reps have evidence for their previously baseless claims. The whole system is locked in a back-and-forth mud wrestling of replacing workers based on ideology.

Dictators fear military coups, that's why people like Putin keeps them weak and fighting themselves
