Guess I’m in the cool group, I’m not taking his calls either. Seriously though, this doesn’t surprise me in the least. I think very few foreign leaders take him seriously.
I see a very complicated situation. Absolutely there is politics with many different interests at play, there always is. In this particular instance Russia is attempting to justify an invasion by saying the regime in Ukraine are Nazi's and drug addicts. The truth is naturally more complex. The problem is instead of negotiating from his position of weakness he chose war, it make him the bad guy in all this.While I cant argue about Ras and Putin, so many of you are carrying water for Ukraine. You will deny this but you flat out are passing on their propaganda unquestioned (fed to you by the same media who lied to you over and over about the pandemic, the election and so many things its become a Brandon meme).
What I WISH I saw here instead was that every one of us was carrying water for AMERICA and keeping their wits about them, whilst corrupt leaders from many sides try to get us to do their dirty work.
Since people are still talking about Trump in 2022 then I have every right to talk about Ukraine from 2014. We helped oust their leader which directly contributed violence over there. All because we wanted Ukraine to run on IMF loans and for them to potentially join NATO.We aren’t innocent for sure. But this thread is about Ukraine in 2022. And last I recall we didn’t militarily trample on them like what is happening now.
The people who were hoping that Russian oligarchs would end this don’t understand that in Russia the government makes the oligarchs while in the US the oligarchs make the government. Putin could have every Russian billionaire imprisoned and all their holdings transferred to himself with one phone call.Another thing I've learned over the past few weeks. Only Russian billionaires are oligarchs. American, European and Ukrainian billionaires are all wonderful people. They are not oligarchs. They are philanthropists. Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, George Soros, Warren Buffet, and Elon Musk are people we should admire and everyone one of them would make a great president for this country.
"You guys"? Did you mean to post this over at RT or Sputnik?You guys started this propaganda war, we are just going to finish it. It is time for some LAW AND ORDER. I am sick to my eyeballs of the chaos. He will not drop a nuke, but these guys are all the same. I already told you how he is probably going out. These guys are all the same.

There's more to that scenario and you know it. It could just as easily be summed up by saying the Ukrainian's voted in a leader who crawfished and cozied up to Russia against the majority of the Ukrainian's peoples will.Since people are still talking about Trump in 2022 then I have every right to talk about Ukraine from 2014.

Ras. You better be careful or people are going to start reporting you to DoubleDs and his pal Blinken.Every situation is different. You can't just apply cookie cutter rules of engagement for every situation. That is where you need competent people with wisdom and discernment... something that The West has been lacking, at it's own peril, for decades.
This is one situation where there was plenty of room for concessions and honest brokering, not taking a hardline like we are standing on the deck of the USS Missouri expecting an unconditional surrender.
