That is the problem when two compulsive liers meet uh?

Most people here are simply parroting the shit they hear from MSNBC. People who watch MSNBC have absolutely no social skills and just do everything they can to make themselves look like the asses that they are as much as possible.

In wars no one cares about what you want it's what you can get.

Support for sending money to Ukraine is eroding, it's uneven and much lower with republicans than democrats. Discussing what if Trump decides to ignore his party, break his promise and send even more money to the person he blames for starting war and called the greatest salesman on Earth" for having solicited and received billions of dollars of U.S. military aid, is like discussing what if Martians show up and start helping Ukraine. Let's keep the discussion to what is plausible.

Money is running out for Ukraine and everyone at the negotiation table knows it, and all outcomes must be based on this. In politics there's not always a good option available. Most of the time you have to compromise between bad and worse, and on top of that the bad/worse positions often flip between short and long terms.

Also, Ukraine has issues with manpower, North Koreans is sending some troops to Russia, even if Trump could send more money to Ukraine what do you think it would achieve?

So no, Trump will not increase aid to Ukraine and EU cannot compensate that. Zelenskiy would step down, get a cozy spot in US, and let his team negotiate the terms. In a hypothetical where he just goes mad and refuses to accept reality, his generals would find a way to force him one way or the other (as history shows).

Trump sees China as its biggest risk. As such his priority would be to drive Russia as far away from China as possible.

You're still thinking of this as if Ukraine has any choice in any of this. Wars are expensive, and stopping one is easy. No money = no war. Look up what happened last time Ukrainian aid package made it through US congress. They're trying to rush the remainder of that aid out to Ukraine now, but there's only enough for Ukraine to last few more months after that...? Now consider that republicans got both chambers, and the position of speaker of the house, VP's and president on Ukraine. And now ask yourself if the next aid package will be approved, if so how long will Ukraine have to wait this time without aid, and will it be less same or more than the last one (we all see how much progress Ukraine was able to achieve with the current rate of aid).

Trump is a president like any other. The fact leftists paint him as the supreme dictator doesn't turn him into one.

Note that if Trump wants to shut the war down really fast, all he has to do is see to it that the US sends $200-billion to Russia.

Odds are that if Putin is serious about using nukes, why would he give any warning? The nukes will simply fly. Some governments of the world will know it is happening, almost immediately. But most of us will never know until we see the mushroom clouds off in the distance, or until we lose our Facebook. The rest of us will be instantly headed for Heaven or Hell.

Russia wants peace just like people everywhere.... except the warmongers, of course. Peace means fair and free trade between peoples of nations. But to maintain peace, Russia (like all nations) needs security. And in this modern day and age, security for a major nation involves nuclear weapons.

The threat of using nukes might be a deterrent to war. But unused nukes are useless when the warmonger game is played right up to the edge of a real fight. And that is where things have gone in the Ukraine war.

Russia will wait a little longer to see how Trump will play the game. But make no mistake. Russia is not fooling when they say that they will use nukes. They may use them as a last resort, but can anyone guess what Russia will really consider to be a last resort? Let's hope Trump and his advisors are wise.


West underestimating Moscow on nukes – Medvedev
...

Well, when will the war end...

Get the US out of it. We have wasted too much of our money over there already.

You're forgetting, Russia's invasion is illegal. Russia's hired solders (including their own) have no right to be in Ukraine.
Putin is spending hundreds of millions into their disinformation campaign, trying to make sure you forget it was illegal.
Don't every forget. Make him waste his money.

As for those North Korean solders, well, North Korea is the largest open air prison in the world. They will never be allowed back into the hermit kingdom. Never.
So their only chance of freedom now is to get to Ukraine. If they can get there alive, they will taste freedom for the first time in their life.

No one will attack Europe and the United States, all countries of evil do not have the guts to attack. And in general, no one needs a third world war.

Why doesn't Ukraine just surrender and live?

Actually, no USA war had "better" killed soldier/civilian ratio...or just look at Israel,
Both USA and Israel are "collateral damage" champs, totally not caring about dead civilians
Considering amount of munition fired, Ukraine war is one of cleanest, despite whole
western media attempts to prove otherwise

Russians continue to move forward nevertheless. Whatever set back you think they have is most likely deliberate.

You think that Russia's only way to move in a war is with nukes. But they still have a million reserve troops, all ready and waiting for Nato to make a wrong move.
