. . .

I think even Trump gets it now - Putin is a TOTAL
HARD-ASS and WILL pursue this war forever and ever,
no matter the costs. It's part of his 'mission
from god" to restore the old USSR. There is NO
sign of 'peace' here despite what the 'negotiators'
might say.

So, time to send harder-ass weapons to Ukraine ...
the kind that can slaughter lots of troops at
a stroke, the kinds that can reach further
behind the lines. Force seems to be the ONLY
thing Putin understands.

Trump and Zelenski had a sit-down at the Vatican
the other day - just two chairs way out in the
middle of the floor. I think something was hatched
there - some new approach to Russia. Zel may SAY
he will abandon territory, but that's just for
the press.

So - cluster bombs, fuel-air bombs, more drones,
more longer-range missiles, more mortars, more
sat intel. It is the ONLY approach to this. Not
the DESIRABLE approach, but Vlad isn't gonna
leave anything else.

I think even Trump gets it now - Putin is a TOTAL
HARD-ASS and WILL pursue this war forever and ever,
no matter the costs.

Trump spent his entire first term
groveling to Putin, he will do the
same now.

Putin's Payout:Trump undermines US relationships with
European allies and calls the US�s commitment to NATO
into question.



Putin's Goal: Degrade the European Union and foster pro-
Russian political movements.

Putin�s Payout:Trump attacks the EU and actively
supports anti-EU, Kremlin-backed parties.



Putin's Goal: Disrupt American leadership and dominance
of the global economic order.

Putin's Payout: Trump is eagerly pushing for an
all-out trade war with Europe

the US and stoke anti-American sentiment.

Putin's Payout: America�s closest allies are
explicitly suspicious and distrusting of the US
because of Trump�s rhetoric and actions.



Putin's Goal: Relieve economic and domestic political
pressure from US sanctions on Russia.

Putin's Payout: Trump tries to roll back, impede,
and blunt the impact of sanctions at every step.

Putin�s Payout: Trump repeatedly praises and defends
Putin, lending the credibility of the US presidency
to Putin�s standing.



Putin's Goal: Revive Russia�s status as a great power and gain
international recognition for its illegal seizure of Crimea.

Putin's Payout:Trump publicly says that Crimea is
part of Russia and calls for Russia to be welcomed
back into the international community with no
concessions.



Putin's Goal: Continue to sow discord in Western democracies
and avoid repercussions for interfering in American and European
elections.

Putin;s Payout: Trump dismisses Russian interference
and has done nothing to prevent future interference,
putting him at odds with his own intelligence community.

Party�s generations-long hawkish views on Russia.

parroted Kremlin talking points across a range of global
issues.

values abroad.

Putin's payout: Trump has repeatedly failed to
respond to human rights violations or support
democracy abroad, creating a more permissive
environment for autocrats to crack down.
