Make America Gavin Again
Coffeesforclosers replied to Homelander's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
If the choice is between a buffoon, and a senile idiot delivering GWB's third term, I guess I'll take the buffoon... -

Bungles still being Bungles

Man you really want to eat a 5 superbowl loss and call that success? -
Tell that to the moneychangers in the Temple.

Being appalled by loss of life isn't a strategy. The President's job isn't to make lions lay down with lambs or protect foreigners from their own stupidity. It's to shape strategies that shape events to our advantage. So what's in it for America if our strategy is an all-out push for peace on humanitarian grounds?

You'd think it be easy to force Russian concessions somewhere. Like say, the middle east, where Russia's whole geopolitical strategy is collapsing. Where's some good old fashioned America First hardball where they can have Donbas so long as they serve up the Tartus naval base or hang the Iranians out to dry? Or agree to withdraw from and destroy all the Wagner bases in Africa? You know, something tangible for all us hard headed realists besides "Stop the killing!" Which is the same crap line we threw out when we were playing World Cop in the 90s (But only for the Balkans and Somalia, and not Rwanda).

Hopefully. However, Russia has been given chance after chance to negotiate a peace. They have always chosen to negotiate so long as they made no binding commitments and didn't have to submit to a ceasefire. Makes smart people think they want to keep fighting for some reason...

Whatever peace plan gets bandied about, what hasn't been addressed is Russia has the upper hand on the battlefield right now. Russian society also seems ready and willing to eat 120k KIA/year so long as Putin's government keeps the firehose of wartime cash and benefits flowing to them. Putin has the choice of...continuing things as he has since Trump was elected, which has the potential to give him the whole country of Ukraine. So long as North Korea keeps his ammo supplies full and Russian moms and dads keep feeding their boys into the wood chipper for bags of cash, why should he stop? Trump's strategy is all about a negotiated settlement...without providing a concrete reason for Russia to dismiss violence as an option for achieving its aims...

What we should get: everyone keeps what they currently have, Ukraine joins NATO and the EU. A true compromise peace. What we'll probably get. The President forcing Ukraine to abandon NATO aspirations and cede all the Oblasts Russia annexed in their fake referendums. The EU is forced to continue rearming and centralizing if it wants guarantee the security of Baltics and the rump Ukrainian state.

I'd expect nothing less from state directed msm.

If Nate Peterman gets another job, I will take it as proof he's got a copy of the Epstein files. It's the only explanation. Miami post-Flores perfectly epitomizes their city. A flashy, souless, mirage of cash and sunshine.

Trump 47, Putin & The Ukraine War.
Coffeesforclosers replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Nobody outside of Ukraine and Russia actually cares about the killing there. Not Biden, not Trump, certainly not all the bleeding hearts that have popped up since election time. But it has been fun watching all the holier-than-thous harp about stopping the senseless slaughter...when they remember to care about it on the internet. -

Outstanding news. Now give him 20+ runs a game in the playoffs. -
Trump needs to fire Pam Bondi!
Coffeesforclosers replied to JaCrispy's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
So the bait and switch worked? Instead of holding the President's feet to the fire on his campaign promise regarding pedophiles, we're just gonna shrug our shoulders and fall in line?
