The Official "Damned Trump" Thread: Phase II

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

In march of 2022, near the start of the full scale invasion, the local residents of a small farming town called Voznesensk blew up a bridge and attacked the russian brigade trying to cross it with bricks, hunting rifles, and construction equipment.  They were joined by a small team of ukranian soldiers on atvs and dirtbikes with shoulder fired rockets - at this point they were very busy stopping the attempted air bridge.  30 armed vehicles, one helicopter, and 100km worth of retreat later, the russian brigade collapsed.  It was later claimed on telegram (from the russian side) that the fracas began when a bulldozer came out of an alley sideswiping the command vehicle, taking the crew and one of the two working radios they had brought to the bottom of the river.

"It's hard to explain how we did it. It's thanks to the fighting spirit of our local people and to the Ukrainian army" - The Mayor of Voznesensk

These people command my respect, and our support. I'd do the same goddamned thing in their shoes, I like to think. Motivation matters. Trump thinking that his little air campaign against Iran will motivate conscripts to fight thousands of miles from home, well, that's just crackhead logic.

It's certainly possible for invaders to defeat the invaded, but it's never easy. There are cases of the pre-Taliban mujahideen attacking and defeating Soviet tank columns from horseback, armed with little more than rifles and grenade launchers.
