  1. Why is it, that governor Newsome has profiled himself as the only true opponent of Donalds "policies". The rest of the US opposition has gone into mental hybernation. How is something like this possible?
  2. t's not only about SSA. Former administrations declared "war on poverty". With limited success. These days, the "war against the poor" has officially started in the US, with the blessing of the president. For ages, extreme "right wingers" in the US have advocated the ultimate Social Security System: "Let them eat s*it and let them die".
  3. Of course the EU member States are much wealthier than Russia. But we have no meaningful armies left. Unfortunately, the EU states have allowed their military capabilities to decrease to the point of "no self defence capability". A warm handshake is the only thing the Ukraine will get from Europe, but no military hardware, as we have nothing to spare. Lo and behold: Now the EU States want to "rearm". Taking at least 10 years. By then, Putin will be sitting in the south of France, sipping expensive French wine. If he want's it. Let's hope he doesn't want it.
  4. This will be measured by the US Inflation Rate. In foresight, Donald has fired the "Chief Statistics Lady", replacing her with a total Loyalist, him willing to "adjust" statistics to accommodate Donald. But the cash registers at Walmart will not lie.
  5. Best car ever made for people with a small wallet.
  6. Not much do do with any Europen Wars. But I have been robbed on the "Appalation Trail" by a bunch of wandering Trump supporters, not accepting the fact that I don't believe in the Gospel of Donald. They were not on my side. But that's veering "off topic". Has nothing to do with "Europeana Wars" or Hillbilly wars, having gone on fror decades- n
  7. My post has not reached you intellectually. Sad to say. But I wold like to quote you "The EU and its' member states are much more powerful and wealthy economically than Russia so, again, they have absolutely nothing to gain from a conflict. Answer : The EU has no military equippement nor moral support that could avoid the military defeat of the Ukraine. Quote: "Yet you ignore that the reason for this extension is that Eastern European countries did not want to be under the yoke of Russia again. For them, it was absolutely necessary. = How about just staying military "neutral"? Conducting business with the West as well as with the Russians? Quote: "You also ignore that NATO was absolutely no threat to Russia, as attested by the decrease of military budgets in Europe, as well as a decrease of U.S. military presence after the collapse of the Soviet Union. = If you sit in a bar, 5 guys getting closer and closer to you without inviting them to get closer to you, sooner or later you will feel "encircled". Regardless if they wear a heavy perfume or a big stick. You will feel "encircled".
  8. Basically all members of NATO. Ganging up with no rhime or reason. Having decided that Russia will be the eternal enemy of Europe.
  9. Quote: "Yet you ignore that the reason for this extension is that Eastern European countries did not want to be under the yoke of Russia again.

  10. I must confess, your knowledge of the Ukrainian War impresses me much. Your expertise on "Russian Affairs" are unsurpassed. Clearly, your information sources surpass any Government "secret services" globally. I want in! I want to be part of your newssources. Surely, UK tabloid newspapers can not be your source of information. A fly in the ointment: For a long time you advertise the imminent collapse of the Russian Economy/Military. The opposite is happening. Russia is winning this war. Could it be, that your newssources are somewhat "flawed"? Still, I would like to know where you get your news from outside of UK Tabloids. I am on the edge of my seat.
  11. The uncalled for, endless eastward expansion of NATO is the root cause. Russia has no geographical "protection" in the west (mountain ranges, swamps etc). Stalin made the East Europen Countries his "buffer zone". Putin wants to re-establish a "buffer zone". We can only hope that the Ukraine will be considered as enough "buffer zone" by Putin. The absolutely uncalled for, absolutely unnecessary eastward expansion of NATO may well be the root cause for the "Ukrainian War". Over the years, Putin has warned over and over again, that Russia will be forced to couteract this provocation eventually.
  12. Yes, with a markup of maybe 3%. Amounting to 25 billion trade surplus in Gold alone. Donalds view: Buy 1 onion in Italy for 1 $ and re-export it to the US for US$1.25 you owe us taxes for the whole 1,25.
  13. You shold spend less time in your social-media echo chamber and focus more on your field of expertise = The war in the Ukraine, as you have more timely information than all the worlds secret services combined.
  14. To avoid this, the "Founding Fathers" have decided that everybody should bear arms. =To chase away potentional Kings. They had no perception that those arms could be used in a civil-war. 50% against the other 50%.
  15. I know. That's why I have instructed the Alaskan bears to eat them both at the first opportunity.
