Could be, but Trump has that albatross around his neck, and that is concerning to the Republicans who know that only DeSantis has a chance of winning the next 2024 elections.
However, he has an uphill chance to take out Trump in the GOP Nominations!!
Trump's chances in the 2024 Elections are slim. No doubt that he has a very loyal base who believe all his lies etc. But I think that DeSantis could take him out, as the more recent polls indicate. However, more recently DeSantis has been trying to appeal to the Trump base with some other very extreme rhetoric. That will not appeal to the swing voters, and may even push some more moderate Republicans away from him!!
Biden trumps Trump as far as Opinion polls outside America are concerned. That is why all of us that live outside the USA do want Biden and / or the Democrats to be re-elected in 2024.:
Biden Is Much More Popular Than Trump Around the World
Trump’s toxic image abroad represents a reputational threat for the broader GOP, which isn’t as loathed by the global community

I will admit Butterball Don did get a lot of votes. I believe it was the igniting of the democratic base to oust the turd that won the Dems the election. Then you have his own whining about mail fraud that kept the Repugs from taking advantage of mail in voting.
As for Putin invading Ukraine under Trump, I'm not sure he would have as Trump was slowly taking Nato apart. Butterball Don was Putin's turkey. On several occasions, he had thrown out pulling the US out of Nato. Another term may have completely weakened Nato and then Putin could have easily gone in and taken Ukraine within a couple of weeks.
Biden, sleepy Joe has been Putin's worst nightmare.

Mitch, what do you think of Ann Coulter. She's on your team but she sure has changed her mind on Butterball Don

I wonder how popular Biden would be in Ireland since he's Irish. The chart only shows the UK.
There were no guarantees from UK and France in Minsk II. The UK wasn't even involved.
But there is a good example of how Trump could have helped Putin.
He could have put pressure on Ukraine to accept the Russian interpretation of the Minsk II agreements, and help break Ukraine as a sovereign state so that Putin didn't have to use troops to try and do it by force.
I'm not convinced about the timing.
He did wait for China to be done with the olympics, but he started the major build up in 2021, because it takes a long time to do that.
I don't know if he bothers starting that build up that early if he has Trump pushing from the West to help pressure Ukraine.
Sorry, Germany instead of UK
In February 2015, the Minsk II Accords were signed by leaders of Ukraine, Russia, France, Germany, and Ukrainian separatists. The goal of this document was to end armed fighting and resolve the conflict between the Ukrainian government and the secessionist oblasts of Donetsk and Luhansk. Minsk II constituted a series of thirteen steps, including a cease-fire, amnesty, local elections, and finally restoration of Ukrainian federal control but accompanied by constitutional reform.
UN Resolution:
| 17 FEBRUARY 2015S/RES/2202 | This was a resolution that endorsed the "Package of measures for the Implementation of the Minsk Agreements" signed on 12 February 2015. |
To be fair, the air raid sirens were just for Hollywood effect.
still sleepy Joe was and is head and shoulders above bone spur coward
Thanks for the clarification!
I was beginning to suspect the image of the late Chris Farley and the orange cartoon sketch was not an actual photograph! And now that you are fact-checking the (purported) dialogue, it makes me not even take the whole photo and caption seriously.
Again, thanks for being the lone voice of pragmatism and reality
Yes, it was planned well in advance. However, the 2018 FIFA World Cup was a big deal to the Russians, and they would have been pissed off if Putin went ahead prior to it. The World Cup would have been cancelled and Russia boycotted. It was always Putin's priority to annex Donbas as well as installing a Puppet Head of State. 2022 was always on the cards, and that is why in 2021 the whole planning commenced and the actual invasion was delayed until the Winter Games in China ended!!
Yes there would. And it had to happen in 2022, because Russia is aging. They would not have enough 20 year olds in a few years. They are about to go through a demographic collapse… so it all had to be now.
Russia has been invaded like 50 times in its history. Every invasion has come through 9 corridors. The wars since Putin has taken over, Chechnya, Georgia, Crimea, etc… those have been attempts at plugging those corridors up militarily.
The goal is not Ukraine. It’s Poland… and the Scandinavian countries.
He was never stopping at Ukraine, so yes, he would have still run troops through until the master plan is finished.
Yes Poland is NATO. Would we give up Poland under threat of Nuclear War? Trump very likely yes. He was weakening NATO.
Biden is pulling out all the stops so it does not get to a NATO country. Russia will likely win… but the body count will be tremendous, and military resource lost will weaken Russia greatly. Putin miscalculated.
