Its not about whataboutism.
No way Putin wins, he lost long ago.
He's fucked up totally.
He doesn't have to win in the traditional sense. Know how he wins? He keeps it going---- on and on and on, because just like I said, there will come a day when Americans, and our elected leaders, will begin to question pouring billions and billions of dollars into what in reality is a lost cause. Ukraine can't beat Putin. Every month/year this drags on, the long term humanitarian and economic effects on Western Europe will grow and grow.
In the U.S, people who work hard and pay taxes are gonna start screaming:
"Why the f*ck are we send billions monthly when we can't even >>>
(FILL IN THE BLANK WITH YOUR CHOICE OF TWO DOZEN MAJOR FRIGGIN' PROBLEMS HERE AT HOME THAT NEED BILLIONS SPENT ON THEM).
And what happens then? The same thing you see in this thread, except on a grand scale. More division, more binary thought, more 'pick your side'.
And the main stream media will do what they do best. Pour gas on the fire. The nightly line-up on MSNBC will go and and on about how we must save Ukraine. More division, more hate, more everything.
You triggered idiots are too blind to see anything beyond the pathetic day to day little bubbles you call lives, and that's all well and good, more power to you, but what I wrote above, and what I wrote initially is your crystal ball into the future.
It's not about Trump, it's not about Biden, it's not about left or right... it's about seeing Putin's long game for exactly what it is, and I'm telling you how it's going to play out as long as that man breathes.
So say what you want.
VZ's a dick.
Whine, cry, talk about whatever.
Point fingers; blame Trump, blame Biden, blame Jan 6, blame trannies, blame crt, blame blm, blame scotus... whatever.
We are playing right into his hand, and it can't be changed.
That's what makes it so easy to predict.
Time will prove me right.
“We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within....” ~Nikita Khrushchev (1956)
America is not going to fall in any of our lifetimes.
It's not. But it is changing fast, and not for the better.
Putin's war in the Ukraine will prove to be no small part this decline and Putin knows it.
Time is on his side. He could easily live another 20 years.
