Trump/Zelensky deal turns into Jerry Springer episode

[Frankfooter]

trump has pissed of the world, its amazing that he's destroying every alliance so quickly.
Canadians are pissed and boycotting, Mexicans pissed. Denmark pissed, Panama.

The US is now siding only with Russia and Israel under trump.

The EU provided 60% of Ukraine's war effort, together with Ukraine they are the biggest military.

This is Trump we are talking about. He changed all conditions and wanted Zelensky to crack under pressure. Trump and team never expected Zelensky to hold on like that in front of everyone and all camera.

Because Trump and Vance are pussies who only talk tough and regurgitate twitter talking points on social media or in front of the camera.
They don't know the first thing about being tough or being under pressure.
Zelensky on the other hand has learned this the hard way over the last 3 years.

Putin attacked because he had not expected the magnitude
of support in terms of military and economic aid Ukraine was
going to recieve from NATO members. I for one found the amount
of taxpayers' money Trudeau has been happy to give away to
Ukraine shocking.

Putin has been keeping up with attacking Ukraine because it turns
out that Ukraine's supporters including NATO-Europe plus Canada
and the U.S. only intended to provide just sufficient support for the
war to drag on at the expense of Ukrainian lives not to defeat Russia.
Putin might have decided pressing on is the way to sow division among
NATO members as well as to destablizie Ukraine.

They were not just defending Ukraine. But all of eastern Europe as if Putin had easily get Ukraine he would have pursue and conquer much easier countries all around.

- Russia is already the most sanction nation on earth

- Russians will NOT withdraw their troops especially from the territories they consider theirs: Crimea and Donbas

- Is USA and EU ready to escalate and go to war?

So, If I have already kicked you in the balls, does that mean I can not put one of my spiked galoshes up your ass?

Marco Rubio reveals that what Zelensky did before cameras started rolling is reason why he should apologize

Marco Rubio slams Zelensky's behavior before cameras started rolling

Marco Rubio said that Volodymyr Zelensky should apologize to Donald Trump and cast doubts on whether the Ukrainian president really wants peace after their disaster meeting.

www.dailymail.co.uk

Nothing in that article suggests any inappropriate behaviour by Zelensky.
Zelensky refused to entertain the possibility that Ukraine's sovereignty was debatable.
The white house is looking to Zelensky to show subservience and make them look good.
And Zelensky rightfully isn't playing ball.
Also, this is an example of MAGA mental gymnastics.
Trump does something stupid.
His entire band of yes men intellectualize, rationalize and try to make it more palatable.
Only cults and dictatorships behave this way.

Article 5 sounds great until a conflict escalates and Canadians have to go and die in a war.

The whole thing about trust and narrative is very one sided. Every news and information source from the opposite side has been silenced, deplatformed, banned etc. Yeah yeah, I know, it's all Russian lying propaganda. Ukraine - 100% truth, Russia - 100% lies.

The entire conflict was all about resources and influence. Ukraine is a country that has oil, gas, fertile soil, metals and minerals etc. They couldn't be allowed to stay under Russian influence. This was a conflict decades in the making.

So far Article 5 seems to have avoided Canadians having to go and die in a war.
That means it works and is reason enough to believe that it is a good deterrent.
Also yes, there is censorship of Russian views in the west.
However, I think we can all agree that invading a nation is 100% wrong and it is 100% Russia's fault.
Any conflict should have been resolved via diplomacy even if it took several years.

Did you think of this all on your own or did you hear it on the news repeated like an anthem?

Putin told me. We are pals.

I would also say this was more like Geraldo rather than Jerry Springer. Not enough chairs broken or transsexuals.

After 1917 revolution countries such as Ukraine, Belarus, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia were formed, not liberated.

The Soviet Russia called it "liberation" that's why I put quotes around it. I believe they propped up local communist militias and absorbed these former regions of Russia into the Soviet Union.

Not trusting, or supporting an adjudicated fraud and daily liar is a virtue. Supporting and making excuses for a lying fraudster with a self-admitted and adjudicated history of sexual assault also speaks to ones character.

Article 5 sounds great when the Russians come over the North Pole for our minerals and our NATO allies come to help what few Canadian soldiers we have. Sad that our greatest ally, and one who Canadian soldiers died alongside of supporting their misguided, dishonest and brutal maladventures in Iraq, Afghanistan etc.

What's interesting is that left-wingers are usually all about peace, and they have now become warmongerers.

And right-wingers who usually like war, have now become peacenicks

Much if this seems to be acrimony harbored towards Russia that has carried over from the 2016 Hillary fiasco.

Phil, you're probably like me. You note with bemusement that they didn't care when Putin was chewing off pieces of Ukraine in Obama's second term.

As far as I can see defending Ukraine is not the primary
objective of the proxy war. The proxy war is more about
weakening Russia. By now Putin and Russia has been considerably
weakened. Not likely they could wage another all-out war
after Ukraine which will be saved from conquest by Russia
by Trump's crafty peace-by-extortion scheme if things work out.

As a hypothetical, let's just say that NATO didn't exist. Why would anyone attack Canada knowing that USA will 100% intervene? Who would be even capable of attacking? We are on a different continent that almost everyone else.

Russia isn't that far from Canada via the Arctic or the West.
And the US would only intervene because of NATO.
Otherwise why would they?
