"worst thing in history", no.

"Terrible and exploitative, and untrustworthy besides"? Yes.

What Biden gave them was peanuts. Enough to not lose everything. But not enough to take back the territory when the opportunity was there, and seemingly not even enough to hold the line as it is anymore.

Make no mistake, America NEVER had any intention of helping Ukraine win.

What a cunt

"I just do what I want" isn't a philosophy, because it doesn't give guidance as to what someone else should do . It's just childishness.

Even Randism / Objectivism stretches selfishness into "rich people should do what they want". Trump doesn't even get that far

I'll grant that the orange felon is consistently selfish, though.
