Russia and Ukraine

[Thumpalumpacus]

Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) upped his critiques of President Trump over his handling of the Russia-Ukraine war, claiming he will be “judged in the history books” over it.

“‘It is [former President] Biden’s and [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelenskyy’s war’ is so morally blind and factually wrong,” Bacon said in a Saturday morning post on social platform X, referencing an earlier post from Trump. “Mr President, Putin is the one who is the invader.”

“And, now this war is on your watch and you’ll be judged in the history books in the decades to come by your actions or lack thereof,” he continued.

Or, he's not seeking reelection as his district turns blue around him. He's been a reliable reich wing voter. I don't think that just because he can correctly identify who slapped who in the face means he gets shit. He can be as pissy as he likes on his way out the door about the man he supported and enabled, but history will judge the general that gave america 10% of his effort, and the rest to the mad king.

Playing to Trump's ego by appealing to history is what I meant.

And then put the balcony out of his bedroom at his new dacha at least six stories up.

His head is so far up Putin's ass that you're gonna need a dentist and at least one crowbar to fetch it out, get real. His ego is even bigger than his avarice.

Christ almighty. The 155th has been hit again out in Vladivostok. Guess they shouldn’t have done bucha so dirty.

   From what I know there are “military personnel” in Ukraine from many countries including from countries like France, England and Germany. That’s because Ukrainians would not be able to operate high-tech Western weapons without them. So technically there are “NATO soldiers” in Ukraine right now. And technically, if they were to be hit and killed, we would have entered a new world-wide conflict. As crazy as they are, the Russians would not want to see this happen either.
 
Otherwise there are some crazy volunteers fighting for the Ukrainian army. Also there are the words of Macron (and Keir Starmer) expressing their readiness to send fighting forces if necessary.
 
Russian propaganda is hard to decipher but I am reading it as “Me too. I also have the right to enroll Korean, African, Nepalese soldiers in my army, because the Europeans are also doing it).
 
Russia has still the world’s second nuclear arsenal. I think it’s really irresponsible even for the Russian propaganda machine to say stuff like that.
 
Here are some numbers:
 
Russia has (according to Putin) 700,000 soldier in Ukraine (1,2 million total)
Ukraine has 900,000 soldiers and is looking for more.

So, according to you Ukraine doesn't have any people smart enough to use the necessary technology to fight to protect their land.  And from your bloviation, I take it that this applies to all countries who have had assistance from other countries.  The only reason other countries step in is to help the dumb countries...is that about right in your estimation?

Do you think ukrainian pilots are flying F16s?
Do you think Ukrainians are operating PZH2000, HIMARS etc.?
Do you think they are operating Leopard 2 or Abrams MBTs?
Do you think turkish personnel is operating U209 u-boats and Leopards?
