If anyone not clearly seeing this, they have lost thier way...

Some believe Putin wants to invade 3 or 4 nations next year. Given his 20 year record that's unlikely. He is 72yo and would have done it 10 years if he really wanted to.

The EU should not miss out on the land grab in the Ukraine. Move troops to the Polish border.

I am American.  I'm getting tired of subsidizing the defense of Europe. 

You, and your hillbilky lot, should have said that before sending more than a million young men to their grave. 

 

The US, and its citizens, will now go in the history books as traitors.

The whole world, except for Russia and North Korea, spits on you. Thanks to the orange bully. You will one day pay a price for that. Who owns your National debt?

 

Do you know how Europeans see America? A 3rd world backwatervwith too many guns and bombs. How many people live in poverty in the US? Health care? Gini index? Infrastructure? Culture? 3rd world, so good riddance.

 

Make and keep your friends close, dont kick'm in their teeth when they are down. The US has shown its true colors.

Border fixed

Lefties are just miserable

LOL, cupcake!

 

Border is not fixed.

 

The budget is exploding, and even the Wall Street Journal, hardly what you sycophants would call "lefty", said DOGE's $55 billion claim is actually only $2.7 billion, while the coming tax cut will ADD $900 billion. Now I know math is hard for MAGAs, but $900 billion is larger than $2.7 billion. Use your fingers and toes and count until you see for yourself.

 

There is no minerals deal, as the uneconomic minerals are in Russian controlled territory, so at this moment it's like Zelenskyy signing over the lease on Greenland to POTUS.

 

The war is not ending. POTUS wants Ukraine to be like your wife and take it up the backside by a gang of rapists. Unlike you, Zelenskyy is a man. He will fight.

What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?    Europe should be dealing with Russia.  Not the USA. 

The US is only wealthier nation because they, unlike European countries, didn't have to rebuild after WW2, just enjoyed the spoils of war.

It should be the international community dealing with Russia, not Europe or anyone else. The US however is not interested in an international community, only themslves, history has shown that only too well.

Pres Zelensky is now rather contrite, and willing to sign the deal he originally rejected last week. 

He's not being contrite at all. He is playing Trump at his own silly game based on the Trump rules that no one can understand. A bit like dealing with some nut job at an asylum to keep them happy. It is very clear who is the bigger grown up here.

Not at all.  Ukraine needs the US. The US doesnt need Ukraine. That is why Zelensky is busy backpedalling, arranging a return visit to Washington, etc. And this time bringing Starmer and Macron for moral support. 

 

It is quite remarkable that Europe (population over 500 million) need the help of the US (population 330 million) to deal with Russia (population 130 million). Especially when the Russian economy is about the size of Spain's.

But the US needs the world or it wouldn't have over a hundred military bases in over 40 different countries.

1) The US has had the world's largest economy since the 1800s.   

2) The US paid to rebuild Europe after WW2

3) Europe is dumb and lazy and can't even defend themselves aginst Russia.

Doesnt matter. He is out within a week or so- the Liberal Party threw him out and are in the midst of a leadership campaign.  So whatever he does or says means nothing.  Hopefully we will have an election soon and elect the Conservatives to keep the country running.

Tell that to Greenland.

If Trump wants to stop sharing information then he should be denied the ability to collect information via other nations.

At least when the US gets out of NATO, no need to move the HQ, just the bases.

There you go Volodymyr. Took a few slaps in the face by Trump, but finally you're singing like you should.

 

Take a cue, Europeans, on how you deal with dictators. You stand up to them like Trump did. You don't kiss their boots, it just makes you ineffectual.

 

Trump understands how to get things done. What a masterclass in negotiation.

What is this based on? 

 

Apparently about 1.5% of Americans visit the UK each year, while almost 6% of Britons visit the US.

King Chuck has great fingers and he babbles so perfectly in his Kings English, so much easier than listening to  Jamie Carragher doing colur at matches.

 

Regardless, I would go there again just because the Brits are such pirates and have all sorts of great stolen property to look at in civilized conditions. The British Museum has AC, the desert doesnt.
