Please consider Trump’s letter to the world.
Truth Social Letter to the World
A LETTER SENT BY PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP TO ALL NATO NATIONS AND, THE WORLD: “I am ready to do major Sanctions on Russia when all NATO Nations have agreed, and started, to do the same thing, and when all NATO Nations STOP BUYING OIL FROM RUSSIA. As you know, NATO’S commitment to WIN has been far less than 100%, and the purchase of Russian Oil, by some, has been shocking! It greatly weakens your negotiating position, and bargaining power, over Russia. Anyway, I am ready to “go” when you are. Just say when? I believe that this, plus NATO, as a group, placing 50% to 100% TARIFFS ON CHINA, to be fully withdrawn after the WAR with Russia and Ukraine is ended, will also be of great help in ENDING this deadly, but RIDICULOUS, WAR. China has a strong control, and even grip, over Russia, and these powerful Tariffs will break that grip. This is not TRUMP’S WAR (it would never have started if I was President!), it is Biden’s and Zelenskyy’s WAR. I am only here to help stop it, and save thousands of Russian and Ukrainian lives (7,118 lives lost last week, alone. CRAZY!). If NATO does as I say, the WAR will end quickly, and all of those lives will be saved! If not, you are just wasting my time, and the time, energy, and money of the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”
You First
The NATO response is seemingly easy: You first, for 3 months.
The only problem with my proposal is there is no unified voice speaking for all the NATO countries. Trump knows NATO cannot do what he says. This is Trump’s cop-out.
Leaders Lead, Headless Chickens and Bluffers Don’t
Leaders lead by example. They don’t shout at the top of their lungs, you first.
His Truth Social Post is really just a TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out).
Trump has threatened Putin a dozen times this year and Putin spit in Trump’s face. Now Trump demands NATO to do what he has threatened.
There are 32 NATO countries and Trump wants all of them to act before he does.
None of them have any reason to believe Trump would hold up his end of the deal. Indeed, no country can possibly believe anything Trump says at all after he unilaterally scrapped his own USMCA deal.
Trust Is Gone
Trust in the US ended the moment Trump scrapped USMCA. It was his own treaty, passing the Senate 89-10. Trump bragged about USMCA for years.
Then suddenly Trump demanded more from Mexico and Canada. The same thing is happening with every alleged “deal” in this term, none of which has been signed by any country.
What a pathetic hoot.

May 9, 2025: 80 Percent Tariff on China ‘Seems Right’ Says Trump, But It’s Nearly as Stupid
Credit Trump for the irony of the year in a pair of comments on Truth Social.
Comments of the Day
- CHINA SHOULD OPEN UP ITS MARKET TO USA — WOULD BE SO GOOD FOR THEM!!! CLOSED MARKETS DON’T WORK ANYMORE!!!
- 80% Tariff on China seems right! Up to Scott B.
Irony of the Year
CLOSED MARKETS DON’T WORK ANYMORE!!!
No one has tried harder than Trump to make the US an island.
He wants production here, massive tariffs to stop imports, tariffs to balance the budget, and now he says an “80 percent tariff on China seems right”.
Now Trump wants 100 percent tariffs. But only if 32 countries act first.
Open Market
The US had a beautifully, nearly open market with Canada and Mexico until Trump came along and ruined it.
Please read over and over Cheese Was a “Key Achievement” of Trump’s USMCA Trade Agreement
The above post contains over a dozen instances in which Trump bragged what a great deal.
It was such a great deal that Trump thanked Mexico and Canada. Notably USMCA is “Good for everybody – Farmers, Manufacturers, Energy, Unions – tremendous support. Importantly, we will finally end our Country’s worst Trade Deal, NAFTA!”
Good deal or not (and I think it was a very good deal for the US), the fact of the matter is Trump has no legitimate right to unilaterally break a deal ratified by the Senate 89-10.
Trump is trying hard to make the US an island after admitting closed markets don’t work.
Attacks on the Weak
Notice how Trump attacks the weak. After repeatedly threatening Russia with severe consequences, Trump did nothing.
- March 7: Trump Threatens Russia With Strong Sanctions in Effort to Reach Peace Deal
- March 30: Trump Says He Is “Very Angry, Pissed Off” at Putin
- May 26: Trump Threatens Sanctions, Asks “What the Hell Happened to Putin?”
- July 14: Trump Threatens 100% Tariffs on Russia Over Ukraine, So What?
Addendum
It feels like 2/3 of the comments on this were written by Mike F***ing Pompeo. Get outta here, Pompeo. Fat or skinny you’ll never be president. And take Nikki Haley with you.
And your comment had 2 downvotes to 1 upvote. It is startling that the comment population here has apparently become evil
Pompeo remember was the one telling Iowa delegates at the GOP convention the day Trump was shot that he was going to be Vice President. Because as the lying scumbag head of the evil enemy of America CIA, he KNEW they were going to kill Trump. Oops Mikey. They failed. So Nikki Haley is NOT going to be the GOP Presidential Candidate and you are not going to be VP Mikey
Correct. And they only activated Crooks once it became known that Trump was choosing Vance as his VP pick. If Trump could have been trusted to pick Haley (to “bring the party together”), they would have assassinated Trump after he’d been inaugurated. They thought they had all bases covered: If Biden (or Harris) won, they would have someone controlled by the Military Industrial Complex. If Haley ascended to the presidency after newly-inaugurated Trump were assassinated, they would also have someone owned by the MIC. Heads I win, tails you lose. But the coin landed on its edge when Crooks missed.
Trump has a valid negotiating or bargaining position?
The position is called bent over.
Ukraine is sanctioning Russia very successfully, kinetically. With lots of fireworks and loud bangs. Is it around 30% already? (Russian oil off-line). Way better than TACOS!
My god. He is doing this so that he need not do something as idiotic as imposing sanctions on everyone who does business with Russia
The problem is our Congress is filled with traitors and idiots, more than 90%
He is threatened by this huge congressional morass of lunacy if he doesnt threaten Russia.
But the CORRECT course of action is to do nothing, and to cut off Ukraine to end the war that the US and its NATO “allies” (they are all enemies not allies) started against Russia with the CIA puppet George Bushes strategically moronic declaration in Budapest I believe in 2008 that Georgia and Ukraine would join NATO
.
Go chase yourself, Vlad.
Actually it was Bucharest Romania not Budapest
Only one real question…. Is this because:
Mark Dougan was a Palm Beach deputy at the time of the Epstein investigations there. He claimed to have video evidence but this has not been independently confirmed. He did however defect and was granted assylum by Russia.
The way Trump clapped Putin coming down the carpet in Alaska implies #1 (you wouldn’t clap somebody who was blackmailing you) – but who knows. Also I think that it would be difficult to keep #2 secret from CIA/MI6 who would surely try to neutralise it.
FTAOD – I am not saying that #2 has any basis – there simply isn’t any evidence.
In some ways that makes Trump’s behaviour worse – #1 means that it is all for personal gain. Cultists click that dislike button now!
I have long been wondering about #2
What does Putin have on Trump?
epstein tapes no doubt about it. probably had it for decades. or musk doge kids sent it.
No. He is just trying to give Putin an off-ramp so we aren’t bogged down when China moves in the Pacific as they will. For now Russia is bogged down in Ukraine and can’t help China much in the Pacific. It also puts a bit of doubt in Xi’s mind whether Russia really might cut a deal. Europe is there to provide money and support to Ukraine to keep it fighting and if necessary manpower. All the financial jockeying is taking place to support the above.
I am sure Trumpie is a student of the Mackinder theory and knows that if Eurasia unites then the Periphery will fall. In line with that concept of being nice to Russia would indeed be in US interests.
But also maybe the supposed refocus of foreign policy to securing South America and it’s resources indicates that the US no longer feels it can contain Eurasia and is refocusing on a more limited sphere of control.
He doesn’t read …
He watches Fox
It’s the other way around.
The Russians are giving the Americans an off-ramp from another humiliating defeat.
He doesn’t need anything on the imbecile.
Oh fer Chrissakes. Any reluctance to fight a country with the biggest nuclear arsenal means they “got something on him”? Did the Soviets have something on JFK when he pulled nuclear missiles out of Turkey? Did they have something on Reagan when he agreed to the INF treaty (which Trump withdrew from)? You’re old enough to remember when America and the Soviets regularly engaged diplomatically despite being in multiple conflicts against each other – including when the Soviets were backing North Vietnam against America. This country has devolved to where we can’t do diplomacy in part because of infantile assertions that Trump is gay for Putin or they “have something on him”.

What does Putin have on Trump?
These guys obviously haven’t read her two volume, 1000 page book from 2022 entitled “One Nation Under Blackmail” which contains over 2,500 hypertext footnotes to her sources or seen Whitney Webb interviews because it’s still “mysterious” to them:
Bret Weinstein on Epstein’s Blackmail Library and the Illusion of Democracy
Dad Saves America
Sep 3, 2025
Evolutionary biologist Bret Weinstein explores the disturbing possibility that Jeffrey Epstein’s blackmail operation is still pulling the strings of global politics. Beyond the crimes themselves, he argues the Trump administration’s backtracking on the Epstein files calls into question the very reality of our democratic republic. Bret explains how he applies scientific “model-building” to make sense of what appears to be history’s sloppiest coverup and the unseen forces behind it all.

trump maga cult remind me of charlie manson family cult of acid head hippies. only maga cult are really fat and wear crosses.
Is Squeaky your mother? You are about the right age a just as dumb.
you got me dougie. so smart you are. go lick donald’s anus as a reward.
As I said. Just as dumb.
No. Trump is flailing about because he doesn’t want to take his lumps and admit defeat. He has no military, economic, or political options left.
The more huffing about USA great number one, the more they are covering for weakness, blowing up tuna fisherman off the coast in outright murder.
In 2024 the global defense budget was: $2.7T, up 20% above 2023. It might rise above: $3T in 2025. Thank u Putin.
the global war on scary things ain’t free.
Putin’s contribution is only a tiny sliver.
He is reacting to NATO expansion, NATO break with all treaties and agreements, NATO stated intentions, and NATO unwillingness to talk.
Of Course it is. TACO is all Trump is capable of. Absolutely Putin has info on him and he is compromised. Every action he takes ends up weakening us from within, or with our allies.
Trump is doing this because he needs cover to blame anybody/everybody but himself for the coming economic and potentially political foreign relations fiasco, even if he is the only one who believes what he says. It is all about Trump, his desire to be the most consequential president ever and also be known for always being right and righteous. I once was convinced he really meant well for our country, now I have my doubts as it’s getting in the way of his ego stroking. Notice one of his main daily objectives is to remove any dissenters from his circle and beyond if possible. He is all exaggerated bluster with little truthful substance designed to make himself look good and every world leader knows it. No country has signed off on anything because they all have the same strategy, wait till the mid-terms or if necessary, wait out his term.
If he wins the Cook firing court appeal, it will be end of fed independence and it will be a huge power transfer to the executive branch. I am inclined to think he has a chance as the Fed has no real accountability as there are no enforcement mechanisms in any of their related legislation. Also, this is another example of get the little fish; notice he has been on Powell’s case essentially since taking office without doing anything meaningful.
fed independence is a modern concept. if up to me i’d scrap the fed. it’s a private bank in NYC which issues the currency. let walmart or apple issue it. or let the treasury do it. make gold exchange to the buck and watch the result. pro tip, you don’t need to have a ton of gold backing it. small percent will do. like always in history.
Could not agree more, my comment was only about the situation at hand
TO ALL NATO NATIONS AND THE WORLD!

DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
trump lied? and is stooooopid? i think i knew this in 1980s when i gave him the finger in nyc. he was the butt of everyone’s joke. a bit off topic but not really. i don’t think the mormon young fella in custody is the lone assassin. i think it’s mossad/cia. the mormon is just a useful idiot patsy. divide and conquer the nit wits on both sides of the uniparty red and blue warmongering party is quite simple. anything but epstein files. which will take down hundreds of powerful men of all stupid stripes of our uniparty of imperial warmongers. bombs away kids. democracy works.
It would be suicide for Europe to actually follow, cutting itself off from using petroleum, and starting a trade war with China & India.
But let us imagine the sanctions were actually instituted?
The price of fossil fuels would more than double and the global economy would be in a deep recession. Great success.
That was the plan all along; to make Europe dependent on Russian energy and Chinese products thereby reducing it to impotence when those two countries make their move. It almost worked.
Whose plan? Russia never cut off energy and China has not embargoed anything. Europe was much better of using Russian energy and not trying to sanction China which is also a big market for Europe.
In 5D chess world, Trump’s new demands will actually do more to heighten tensions within the EU/NATO than Putin could dream of … if people latch on to the actual effect, they could start a new Russia hoax, claiming Trump is in Putin’s pocket.
The whole thing illustrates the extent to which all US foreign policy is pantomime; it’s all about posturing for domestic political effect. The only thing of concern to the Trump administration is how to get out of this without appearing to be a loser again, like Afghanistan and Vietnam, going so far as continually posing as a beneficent mediator when the US is the primary protagonist (Rubio: “proxy war”) in the latest chapter of the West’s 150 year war against Russia (or 1000 years, if you dig back far enough to the Teutonic knights and Catholic crusades).
?? When.
Putin and Russian officials have been obsequious about praising Trump and contrasting him with predecessors, even as the Russian population considers him to be an ignorant clown and have elevated “American General” to a derisory trope alongside of “British scientist”.
In my opinion, “Putin and Russian officials have been obsequious about praising Trump” in a tactical way as they have tromped on him via their actions many times. Trump has himself said he has been very disappointed in Putin after Putin has done what Putin does. Actions speak louder than words and they have shown no respect for Trump, just lip service. Trump’s response has been kicking the little guy in the teeth but leaving the bear alone. No wonder the world is losing trust in and respect for the US and its currency. Gold declares that story.
What actions? How have they not shown respect?
They have repeated ad infinitum that the root causes must be addressed.
Among them is that America is a belligerent and continues the flow of arms, command & control, and ISR. American/NATO generals are at the top of the chain of command in Ukraine. Russia proposed a treaty in Dec 2022 and were told to f-o.
Russia prefers a diplomatic settlement, but that requires meeting their terms; otherwise the battlefield will decide as the West kept repeating in 2022.
Why even try sanctions (that don’t really work)?
Just fund the Ukriane war effort and
https://fortune.com/2025/09/13/russia-economy-recession-gdp-q2-q1-central-bank-rate-cut/
Let the Russian economy take care of the rest.
Yep
Not one %^&$#(*&^ US Taxpayer dollar for funding Ukraine
Not one
Trump: no sanctions on Putin without u, all of u. The ball is in your court. Since u are divided ==> no sanctions.
The good news is that with more Russian sanctions Trump will have the Western Europeans back to the 11th Century in no time.
very peaceful times in europe actually. compared to romans and the imperial exploration age and the world wars.
If you believe that you never picked up a history book.
you are dumb dougie.
When Putin goes down, Trump goes down shortly there after.
It should be blaringly obvious by now that Putin is holding a full deck of Epstein cards over Trump.
https://x.com/astraiaintel/status/1964872386559594842
In what respect do you think Trump is doing Putin’s bidding?
Have you ever heard Trump mutter the words “root causes” or say a damn thing regarding the root causes of the war and American belligerence?
I just want to say I love posts about Ukraine because I get to watch feeble 60 something boomers who haven’t served a day in their lives (or at best nearly half a century ago) try to talk about how military hardware works.
served? what or who? MIC C suite cunts? 9.11.01 was a direct blowback and also and inside job to increase those MIC C suite fellas living large in greenwich CT………..
We may differ on the time of death…but I agree 100% that Trust Is Gone.
Buy gold if you really believe that.
The smart money is front running the public as we write.
Trump is not a leader.
Leaders don’t speak like this.
“If you followers do this I, leader will do like you”
I don’t think he scrapped the usmca. I believe the tariffs are on items not covered by the usmca. Any violations of the usmca would be litigated through the appropriate agency?
You are allowed to believe whatever you want.
However here, at MishTalk, most of us at least try to use facts. And the fact is that beliefs are merely that, beliefs.
The fact is that the republican administration is enforcing international trade policies that are not part of the USMCA.
And Im guessing you also believe that Pink cows fly over the moon.
The fact is that most if not all the trade agreements of the USMCA are still in effect. Look it up I know tds prevents rational thought or grasp of facts. I have heard lobotomies may be of benefit for this condition. Sorry if you are butthurt.
Making more noise to distract from the Epstein list.
Right. Everything Trump does is about distracting from Epstein & the soon to be released silver bullet that brings down TACO.
My gawd, dude, come up with something else to harp about.
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
Wow we really got the “I actually don’t care about child rape even if the president did do it” admission here. Hey can you jog my memory Ben? Which party spent 8 years harping about that list that doesn’t exist again?
Maybe if every post from El Trumpdo didn’t drone on ad nauseam about Pedo’s we might take what he says a bit more seriously.
Besides, the US has already had a Pedo President in Clinton so it’s not like we are breaking new ground here if Trump is indeed guilty of it (of which there is zero evidence despite thousand of Dems looking and tens of millions spent doing so).
If that’s the case, Bill should be in jail too. Just because some people get away with murder doesn’t mean we should legalize it.
Sorry to burst your buddle, but yes, I don’t care about Epstein. He’s dead. He got what he deserved. As for the other pedo’s yes, I would like to see them brought to justice, but I don’t see any of these powerful people being prosecuted.
And I’m going to give Biden’s & Trump’s AGs a little benefit of the doubt here. If their review of the files showed there was prosecutable evidence in there, then I think they would have brought charges, especially Trump. this tells me there’s just a bunch of solacious information that’s not flattering but not prosecutable either.
As a matter of record, I don’t think there exists a client list. There may have been one, but it’s long since been destroyed or will only be revealed upon Maxwell’s death.
It’s nothingburger to me simply because I don’t see anything coming of it.
Mish laid it out pretty clear… if there’s nothing to hide, there’s no reason not to release the files. Yet, they hide the files!
You may think Epstein is nothing to worry about but Trump sure doesn’t feel that way.
He belongs in jail, and you know it.
Nope!
That’s because you’re not smart:
”Smart people don’t like me” – Donald Trump
You’re right for once. I am smart, because I don’t like Trump as a person. However, he’s turned out to be the right person for being president following up the Brandon disaster.
That qualifier gets you nothing. You like trump. You’re a moron. Full stop.
Mr. Kotter had the Epstein list, until Barbarino ate it.
hahaha
It was a fake one, written by Epsien’s mom.
No one is paying attention to the United States anymore. Not since that Alaska meeting.
they do.
just they solved trump BS already!
just play w/ him, give him something . promise more. and do not do anything
he is golden fish, obv he has some issues w/ memory and attention deficit disorder
His brain is rancid vanilla pudding. He only has the vaguest idea where he is at any given moment.
Kabuki for public consumption.
Didn’t NATO war minister Hegseth publicly tell Brussels “you do Russia while we do china”?
If that’s the plan, then NATO “should* raise tariffs in NATO-EU regardless of whether NATO raises tariffs in NATO-USA.
Brussels servers are probably overheating while crawling social media for memes to silence and memes to elevate to persuade its serfs to support their impoverishment.
=Trump has threatened Putin a dozen times this year and Putin spit in Trump’s face.
Mish obv has some issues w/ Russia, Russians and Putin!
why such words? spit? really?
actually Putin is very calculated and keep all cards close to his chest.
=======
as far as all Ukraine/Russia/ USA / Europe call for peace, it seems some people forgot some facts from past already having gold fish memory time span.
=1 in 2014
EU signed papers w/ Yanykovich . including some EU officials.
next a few days Yanykovich was gone by threat of death.
=====
in 2014*15
Russia SIGNED OFF MINSK ,AND MINSK2! IT WAS VOTED IN UN .
Ukraine did not implement!!
Merkel said it was to buy time to re -arm ukr army!
=====
in 2022
Russia started talks in 2022 in Istanbul , Ukraine started talking, and then after Boris Johnson, refused. war started.
I believe there is a saying in USA: fool me once, it is on you, fool me twice , it is on me.
alx
According to George Bush it goes: “fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again” ”
Which Bush – the Elder or the Dumber?
Trump positions change day to day at this point, even hour to hour. Absolutely incompetent and destructive “leadership” (which is an absurd word to describe whatever it is he’s doing.)
Its called Strategy . . .
“Strategery” lol
He means bullshit bingo.
Smart Guy . . . This is Trump’s way of exiting this mess because he knows that Europe cannot agree to cut their purchases of Russian Oil & Gas without committing Economic Suicide . . .
As for Sanctioning China and India . . . Europe’s shelves would be empty without China and India supplies nearly 80% of Europe Pharmaceuticals . . . Good Luck with that. This is what happens when you have Global Trade . . . Everybody is interlinked.
The Ukraine Coflict can be easily stopped within 24 hours. Simply get Zelensky to honor the Minsk Agreement, which all of Europe signed in 2014, and the war will be over quickly.
Russia doesn’t trust the West because they failed to honor the Minsk agreement !
Minsk II was also agreed to by the UN Security Council. Just sayin’
I like the level headedness. From taking a quick look at the two Minsk Agreements, I’m not sure it was just the west who was to blame. Putin has proven he’s got insatiable ambitions to take over as much of Ukraine as he possibly can.
Hopefully, Putin doesn’t live to “old age”. The problem with Russia under Putin is that in about 10 years, once all of his able-bodied men have been sent off to die, he’ll just start sending in battalions of killer robots.
Can you imagine how low Russia’s birth rate will be in 10 years or so?
Hopefully, Putin doesn’t live to “old age”. The problem with Russia under Putin is that in about 10 years, once all of his able-bodied men have been sent off to die, he’ll just start sending in battalions of killer robots.
===
problem w/ your analysis you have no idea about Russia, never lived in , AND DONT KNOW russian lang. obv
all your knowledge comes some glance in X , or cnn tv program?
am i right?
btw, USA birth rate is 60 years low at least!!!! check it out
and dont get me started about eu, or japan
Alx, I wasn’t talking to you. Please don’t butt in.
No, you’re wrong . . . about everything.
Trust me, I don’t want to get you started.
Your bias is obviously obnoxious.
Your tears are delicious.
Russia can’t make a killer robot any more than they can make a decent car. They had to have the Iranians come teach them how to make drones.
Like doubling down at Blackjack in Vegas.
Yeah, I agree or like a Double Dog Dare.
Actually the Russian birth rate is rising now and surpasses that of all European countries as well as the US I bleieve.
The only thing that will bring Putin to the peace table are sound defeats on the battlefield. Been that way since day one: the 40-mile convoys. They were getting their asses handed to them in Afghanistan, and they left.
=ble are sound defeats on the battlefield
mor11on! USSR lost 4.5 mil in first 6 month in 1941!
overall it lost 25+ mil in ww2!!
OBV, you are AMERICAN M11ORON WHO NEVER OPENED HIST BOOK in whole life!
AM I RIGHT?
Lol. If you think Putin’s Russia is anything remotely like FDR’s Russia, you’re stupid as hell.
= They were getting their asses handed to them in Afghanistan, and they left.
did you hear that on cnn?
====
you are typical american mo11ron who projecting USA defeats in Vietnam over USSR in afganistan!
USSR left Afghanistan in 1989. afgan gov was totally functional!!
it was 1991 when USSR collapsed Afgan gov collapsed too. no money no weapons!
you would know if opened hist book!! and read some
alx
ps
btw, how is that 20+years in iraq/ Afghanistan going on ? i know, we saw on tv
few years ago
Grab a gun, buddy, and head over there. There was another country that got run out of Afghanistan after 20 years, 4,000 dead and a couple Trillion dollars. Who was that one again? Yeah, after losing to the Taliban, what you wanna do is fight the most heavily nuclear-armed country in the world over a border dispute in distant non-ally country that most people couldn’t find on a map. ‘Murika!
it is uki troll . he is in poland/eu , using keyboard after day of cleaning
local toilets.
Right after you grab your gun and go defeat the Chinese. Lol.
What, Taiwan? Are you one of these people who thinks the U.S. – on the other side of the planet – can perpetually prevent China from establishing control over its own island province of 24 million that has been agreed to be part of China by the United Nations and, indeed, the United States for over 50 years?
So Trump read my post and has decided to agree with me. Defeats for Putin on the battlefield are coming. General Amos “Bonespurs” Halftrack to the rescue.
TACO is an apt name for Trump. In the Ukraine situation, though, what would it mean to not chicken out? If you’re in the Lindsey Graham/Tom Cotton cohort (and if so, you should perform an examination of conscience) you’d say “more sanctions!” (More cowbell). Or “send a ton of F16’s” (which would have to be piloted by Americans) or “send 1/2 million troops” (which would take months to assemble and couldn’t easily be supplied) or “no fly zone” (air war with Russia). All of those ideas are insane.
If Trump had true courage, he would tell Ukraine and the Europeons to take the L and let Russia keep the four oblasts (de jure) – and obviously Crimea – before they lose Odessa, Kharkov and Sumy. The people in the oblasts Russia currently claims are Russian anyway (as if anybody in the West cares about that). I get that it’s dangerous to say no to the MIC – as JFK found out – but we’re all gonna die. If he cares about Ukrainians poised to die in this futile effort to defeat Russia – as he claims to – he should tell them it’s time to stop before all their men are dead and all their women are in Western Europe bearing children for Arabs.
“If Trump had true courage, he would tell Ukraine and the Europeans to take the L”
OMG! What a brilliant idea. I’m sure Z & the 32 NATO leaders would do exactly that.
Take the loss just because TACO says so.
They’d have no choice. The UK army is 70,000 men. That’s it. “32 countries” sounds impressive until you realize that Turkey is the only one with a real army. Luxembourg, Estonia, Latvia, Iceland, Montenegro, North Macedonia? Ooooh, scary.
Not a fan of the man – but hasn’t Trump said such, to that effect, to the Ukrainians?
Unfortunately not clearly.
Mish,
Just asking. Can you list 3 sanctions Trump should have put in place shortly after taking office?
Thanks!
Trust in the Donald may have ended when he ended the USMCA, but trust in the US ended when the he ended the JCPA.
If Europe believes so strongly let’s see them put their comfort and convenience on the line.
The Euros have been playing the “lets you and him fight” game for this whole affair. The US fights Russia and they loot the corpses. In their dreams once again Europeans of the correct social class will rule the world.
There’s a lot of “let’s have you and him fight”. Regular Euros and Yanks are paying dearly for what their leaders decide for them. I see the Euro elites as partners but junior partners.
That’s exactly what is happening here. I’m in Lithuania and they are screaming here at the top of the lungs for Americans to come and fight Russians. Spend more money ! Everywhere , on TV , in the streets in your closet
I’m Lithuanian-American, I absolutely amazed , and upset of it! They live here better than average American citizen!!!! I didn’t see so many Mercedes and Porsche in New York City as I can see it here in Vilnius. All “foreigners help” is stolen. That’s exactly what LithuaniaSSR did when they were in USSR . Best supply and best live in comparison with other USSR republics!
We, Americans are absolutely unbelievable stupid to support it!!!!
Pardon my English!
i was in Panama circa 2018 when some bell hop from venezuela told me the amerikans should go invade there. i suggested he put down my bags and go fight his own fight. he kept carrying my bags and took my silver coin tip, too.
Hungary in particular would never go for it
Free riders are never for their free ride ending.
As Simplicius the Thinker wrote yesterday,
Trump: “I will put sanctions on Russia as soon as you guys do something I know is impossible to do.”
It would be schizophrenic to do it by us when Europeans, main instigators of this BS, would enjoy cheap energy etc. and on top of it, I’m not sending my sons to die there!!!!!!!!!!
