Or as I put it to someone. “What’s the worst case scenario for the world. Absolute worst?” He hemmed and hawed. I said “Nuclear war. Agreed?” He did. “How close are we right now? To me we are closer now to all out nuclear war than we ever have been. Even including the Cuban Missile Crisis. Closer now because one party actually wants it. That’s you guys.” He said “So Putin gets to just take Ukraine? You’re okay with that?” “Right. See. You’re justifying nuclear war where likely 2 Billion will die. Trump won’t lead us there. Biden will.”

I like the analogy. Thought provoking. Let’s see who gets it.

It NATO hadn’t been making motions to include Ukraine none of this would have happened.

I do not blame Ukraine for wanting to join NATO. Any sane country bordering Russia (and many countries that do not border Russia) would want to do the same. Do you know what the Holodomor is? Have you read The Gulag Archipelago?

I voted for Trump twice and I gave money to his campaign twice. My big problem with him now is that he does not support Ukraine. I am not sure I can support Trump unless he supports Ukraine. History tells us what happens when tyrants and aggressive dictators are not adequately resisted.

In this case the aggressive dictator is the US via NATO. If they hadn’t interfered this would not have happened. Russia could take Ukraine in a week if it so chose. You are willing to let Ukraine destroy itself. For why? To prove Russia is a bully? We know that.
