The Ukraine war thread
-
While Russia is exempted from the current round of Trump tariffs, its stock market is crashing like every other bourse. The drop in oil prices must really hurt.
Despite all, don’t expect the Kremlin to become more accommodating or any less bellicose in pursuing its war against Ukraine.

The good news is that Germany looks like they may actually be getting serious about their defense forces.
Putin like to ponder on the glory days of the Soviet Union. Doubt it would come anywhere near that, but I wonder if he wishes to ponder on Operation Unthinkable?

Everybody's to blame.
Everybody except Trump, presumably.

What an odd comment "Biden could've stopped it. Zelenskyy could've stopped it."
Umm, yeah pretty sure if he coulda...he woulda.
That being said, the video clearly says Trump says Putin started it and I think his latter comment about "if you start a war" was a sloppy way of saying Zelenskyy essentially allowed the war to start. Which is a lazy summary of events.

I think "lazy" is quite a charitable interpretation of what Trump said.

It’s also possible (albeit remote) that Trump is beginning to realise that all along Putin has been playing him for the Muggins he really is on the world stage of diplomacy and conflict resolution.
As any self deifying narcissist would do, Trump is lashing out and laying blame on everyone else other than himself for what amounts to his own ineptitude.
So yeah, sloppy thinking is at play here. Big time sloppy thinking.

Wait, so Rubio said Trump's been working on this for 87 days (7.9 scaramuccis).
I thought Trump said he'd end it in 1 day (0.09 scaramuccis).
