Wow, Trump isn't Gandalf The Grey or Dumbledore ...
couldn't just MAGIC Putin into accepting all !
That's REALITY folks.
Putin IS a hard-ass - a severe hard-ass.
He's not gonna automatically bow to Trump
or Joe or Kamala or HRC or ANYBODY.
Ukraine needs a fix and it's NOT gonna be
easy AT ALL. Everybody is going to HATE it ...
meaning it'll probably be "about right".
SOME shit is just MESSY - and Ukraine is one
of those things.
OR do you want a nuke-war ? Eager to see
your flesh drop off ? I've lived with that
image for 70 years - the Whole Cold War Thing.
Just hide under your school desk ......
BEST tact, IMMEDIATELY impose the Russian Oil
tariffs on India and China. NO delays. Vlad
has to know we're serious - that The Money is
going away .......

When one calculates the amount of hydrocarbon gases that were released
into the atmosphere when NordStream II pipeline was blown up and then
factor in the higher energy costs and fuel consumption as European and American airlines no longer have permission to fly over Russia when
going from Europe or North America to, say, Japan, China, and the Middle East, it not only cost more economically but adds more "climate change"
gases to the atmosphere, possibly resulting in the massive wildfires
being witnessed all across Canada, Europe and the U.S..
With the longer shipping routes around the African continent as ships
avoid the Red Sea and Suez Canal due to blowback from Israel's genocide
in Gaza, more fuel consumption and climate change gases are thrown into
the picture, along with higher costs in the West.
Perhaps the story of how the West is "winning" as it wages hot war
against Russia through its proxy of Ukraine and through Israel against
Syria and Iran (Russia's former proxies), doesn't hold up under deeper scrutiny. Hillary Clinton, Obama, Victoria Nuland and John McCain
fucked up big time with their Maidan Revolution. Ukraine will be a
repeat of Biden's disastrous retreat from Afghanistan, unless the West
wants to have a full blown nuclear holocaust.

I'm not a firm believer in "GW". Hey, "the science" said
we'd all be dead by now.
Sorry, just TOO much pure politics involved - can't tell
what's real, what's "the science" or what's HYPE.
It HAS been getting warmer for about 13,000 years - and
the paleo record suggests that will continue for awhile
until we're back to Steam Jungle Earth yet again.
So, invest in air-conditioning companies.

Nobody is in THAT great a shape these days. Production
and consumption are too spread out and it's harder to
just unfurl the Union Jack and conquer/plunder stuff
from lots of other people.
Ukraine ... there ARE some sneaky back-routes that
bypass the nuclear holocaust. Money/trade pressure
CAN work fairly well. The oligarchs will NOT be
happy with Putin. Might even put a shiv in his
back if they lose too much cash. NO assurance the
replacement Czar will be any 'better' though, just
'different'.
But, again, this story is the same all through time ;
some of the names have been changed to protect
the guilty.

When I was a kid, not only were all the pictures and videos of communist countries in black and white, but there seemed to be very few privately passenger cars behind the "Iron Curtain" or in "Red China." Lots of
people riding buses and bicycles or just plain walking.
It was said that when the movie "Grapes of Wrath" was shown in the USSR,
the workers noticed that even the most downtrodden Okies were driving
their own cars, so Stalin ordered the movie pulled from the theaters so
that the proletariat wouldn't notice that no matter how bad things were
in America, they were better than under communism.
It seems that the Democrats and their counterparts in Europe want to
turn the West into the USSR or Mao's Red China part II, with a few elite
at the top with their private jets, yachts, luxury cars, and exclusive communities for the ruling class with everyone else treated like Gazans.
