If a large country wants to invade a small country in order to annex them forcibly, what is the option other than:
1. Assistance from other large nations sufficient to deter them.
2. Mutually assured destruction.
Putin said he just wanted to secure specific regions of Ukraine and then promptly marched toward **Kyiv**. He clearly wants the position of strength that the USSR gave them.
But it doesn’t matter, the only thing that matters here is that if we just let Putin even *push* borders into Ukraine with 0 resistance, **then the only thing other small countries can really do is start refining uranium as fast as humanly possible.**

I'm almost certain the people who tested him said something like "Top marks Mr. President, aced it", which anyone of average intelligence would understand to be just a casual off-handed remark that doesn't mean anything given the context, but Trump is just too stupid to not take such a comment at face value.

“I didn't see anywhere in the story that trump said he would cut off aid to Ukraine prior to his election. Why is that the headline? Inaccurate reporting. Interesting enough Ukrainians I know that have been living in America for the last 10 years hope Trump wins because their businesses were more successful under Trump. My brother in law who lives in Ukraine, and is definitely not pro russian, told me that he hopes Trump wins because he thinks the war will be over sooner. These aren't even my views, just those of Ukrainians that I know.”

What amazes me is that a healthy and functional human being shouldn't need to know anything about Trump to see how unqualified he is. The more you know about Trump the worse he gets, but even the most superficial glance at him should provide reason enough to detest him. Listen to any of his speeches. The rambling, incoherent thought process. The grandiose narcissism. The petulant jibes at his enemies. The dumb little hand gestures. The ***obvious*** lies.
If you have even the *slightest* ability to read another human being, everything about him just screams that he's somebody to be loathed and shunned.

Russia is not our peer-to-peer competitor, China is. This war is benefitting China, since now Russia depends on the rickety alliance they've created with North Korea and Iran, with China being the de facto coordinator of this group.
We should be focusing on South East Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Central Asia where China is expanding in, and is doing so with ease now that they have the cooperation of Russia. Why are we getting bogged down in Eastern Europe and the Middle East with two wars in Ukraine and Gaza. Are we stuck in throwback mode running through our Cold War greatest hits? This is what happens when our leaders are old and lack creativity, we're stuck performing reruns of shit we know will only lead to more military and financial instability throughout the world.
You support a geopolitically counterproductive war, so the onus is on you as to how this war benefits us in any way other than enriching the military industrial complex and the politicians who market this war for Big Business and Big Government.

>So are you going to sign up when they run out of bodies? This army isn't going to win with just weapons/training?
That’s the thing, I don’t have to… yet. Ukrainians are already fighting them to protect the selves and their borders, and they need aid to go on.
>They won't be fully pushed back to the og border without other nations boots.
Thats seems to be the current reality of the situation. I don’t see at all why that should mean Ukrainians should hand them the rest of the country.
>Why not just drone strike/stealth bomb Putin and Co if he is such a threat to the west? It's not like the west doesn't know where he is, we have much of the communications tapped.
I honestly can’t tell if you’re just arguing on bad faith or if you just happen to be beyond ignorant on the matter. I shouldn’t have to explain why assassinating the leader of nuclear power is a bad idea.
>Could it be that we don't really care about Ukrainians and rather try to bankrupt Russia as a country to gain more spheres of influence?
Both things can be true. Aiding Ukraine and crippling Russia are both moral objectives.
I’ll ask you again. Do you honestly believe Ukraine surrendering or no longer getting international aid will benefit anyone other than the aggressor?

>So are you going to sign up when they run out of bodies? This army isn't going to win with just weapons/training?
That’s the thing, I don’t have to… yet. Ukrainians are already fighting them to protect the selves and their borders, and they need aid to go on.

The tape is probably just 2 call girls peeing on a bed with Trump watching. The MAGA supporters won't care what they see on the tape, and they'll vote for him anyway. A bigger problem is Trump has committed more serious crimes and gotten away with them all. We've got a serious **cult worship** problem in the US.

When people talk about the threat of nuclear escalation in the Ukraine, they're not talking about MAD.
If anything, what's more realistic is Russia using tactical nuclear weapons in strategic military and economy hotspots throughout Ukraine in the event of losing the war. The U.S came up with a similar plan during the Vietnam War known as [Operation Fracture Jaw](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_Jaw&ved=2ahUKEwiX7MjC2uGGAxUPSTABHYKyCDYQFnoECCUQAQ&usg=AOvVaw28WCvWgqmu202hnlW-rMQa). The plan was to use low-yeild nuclear artillery shells and payloads in strategic outpost in Vietnam that would explode in the event of an American retreat, irradiating the entire land in the process.
With the use of fission bombs, they could even avert irradiating themselves and the rest of Europe depending on the bomb's yield.
Once that happens, there's no telling how the West would react, but the ball would be in our court.
I don't think Putin is using mad-man theory, I think he would be desperate enough to nuke Kyiv the moment he realises there's no escape from a total loss in Ukraine.

So at what point do you sign up to go to Ukraine? Since you said not yet but they will need you. They are trying to claw back nearly 1 million men that fled, average age nearly 50 and abduct people that don't want to fight.
If you take out the leader and his co who is there to go against you? Install a puppet, take over the country or hope that his approval rating is truly fake and the public doesn't elect another him.
What's a surrender? Surrender would be Russia fully takes over all of Ukraine. Don't think that will happen. What I do think will happen is a stopping agreement giving up more land than the original agreement.
I believe our politicians don't care about "democracy in Ukraine" I believe they pretend because they can't be honest to the ugly truth. We want things/control in those areas. Also they think they can't cut military budgets because they will get voted out since the manf touches every state.
I would rather they be honest.

Probably better than it will view people who think Russia is allowed to dictate the policy of every country east of the Elbe for all time, or who just completely ignore Putin’s multiple extremely clear essays and speeches (for example: “On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians,” 2021, or “Address concerning the events in Ukraine,” 2022) in which he explicitly denies the existence of the Ukrainian people as a distinct nation and their right to an independent and sovereign state. Just a guess.

If he loses, they have to dump him or lose again. He is too old and senile. Might not make it through the next 4 years. He is not going to get any more coherent.
They'll just have to bite the bullet. Optimal case for them could be if he dies. If winning looks hard, maybe even before elections.

Like I see myself as someone who's pretty good at at least seeing the logic (or incentives) in opposing arguments, even if I don't agree with it, but I really just don't it at all. Why this man, why Trump 🤷

>Ah, so you'll let the Ukrainian men, women, and children do the killing and dying, while you do the talking... Got it!
So because I’m not there personally, throwing grenades at a trench means I can’t be in favour of sending aid to Ukraine? The fact is Ukrainians will fight Russia with or without the west’s support. But western aid stops them from being massacred in the process.
>Do you realize the billions of dollars Russia would need just to prop up Ukriane's government, infrastructure, social services, and economic activity? And that's before you take into account the billions of dollars needed to occupy Ukraine. Not to mention the fact that Russia would need about 1.2 Million soldiers to occupy all of Ukraine.
>Russia will push the Ukrainians all the way into the Dnipro River and call it a day. All they want is there buffer space. A neutral Ukraine is more beneficial to the Russians than an occupied Ukraine.
They didn’t stop at Crimea. They won’t stop at Dnipro by their own public admission. They came close to reaching Kiev during they early days of the invasion and if Bucha taught us anything. They have no qualms about murdering the civilian population.
>But giving Ukraine American-made bombs to attack a nuclear power is a better idea? The math is not mathing.
It’s called deterrence. Neither side can use nuclear weapons because of the knowledge that the other side has the capacity to retaliate in an equal proportion. Thus either side is protected from retaliation. Sending conventional bombs to Ukraine is meaningless in terms of escalation, since Russia is already bombing Ukraine. Assassinating their sitting president would be an extraordinary attack that would call for extraordinary levels of escalation. These are not difficult concepts to grasp.
>Do you serious believe this conflict is being fought on moral grounds? Boy, you're in for a rude awakening when Western corporations come to collect on the debt Ukraine accumulated to fund this war. Not only do we send them to the meat grinder to, destroy 1/3 of their country, but also we suck up their natural resources and finances for decades to come. Yay neoliberalism!
No, I’m not naive. I know wars aren’t fought over moral grounds alone. But I can also morally evaluate the action of the opposing forces. What Russia is doing on Ukraine is nothing short of criminal.
>I’ll ask you again. Do you honestly believe Ukraine surrendering or no longer getting international aid will benefit anyone other than the aggressor?
>Yes. Now, let me act you a question. Do you seriously believe that Ukraine sacrificing their future for the West is anything more than another for-profit neoliberal war?
I think this really is the key to our difference in views. You seem to think Ukrainians are fighting to fulfil the will of the West. This is simply false. Ukrainians are fighting to secure the future of THEIR OWN PEOPLE. Their families, their homes and their lives are at stake, and they’re fighting to protect them. If you can’t take that at face value I see no point in continuing this conversation.

Can you guess which country I never defended or even *mentioned* at any point? Maybe you should have considered that prior to the standard “but other people are also bad sometimes” wall of text that mysteriously seems to crop up any time anyone is ever even remotely critical of something Russia is doing. But yeah, I’m sure the people advocating that everyone just give the invaders everything they want all the time will be remembered extremely fondly; well done.
PS: it’s fun how you blame other countries for “funding” the war but not Russia for **starting** that same god damn war, lol.

If you really are an American then you are a disappointment to your forefathers. A democratic country is bleeding, they know that if they lose to Russia then it's the end of their identity and likely the end of their lives and the lives of their children. While you might not agree to help them (despite the fact that all your precious dollars are ending up in Americans pockets through MIC contacts) to tell them to "just give up" would make your founding fathers roll in their graves.
