    Trump supporters like trolling because the facts don't support their narrative. Trolling is all they have left to claim.

    Putin is playing against NATO and US policy, not a particular president.

    In Yes, Minister, the person who spoke like that was very smart, and his phrases were fully coherent yet purposefully meaningless.

    Kamala Harris is dumb as a rock, and her phrasing is incoherent and therefore meaningless.

    Otherwise, yes, sounds like Yes, Minister.

    you got it.

    Many senators and lawmakers in Washington DC don’t understand. Putin, good or evil, will be remembered by history book as a strong man taking back what’s lost. Next Russian president, strong or weak, will inherit the territory. United States in contrast, is in expansion mode for the last three hundred years. Some miss the confederacy are the same logic.

    This is why I never celebrate my calls/puts overnight.

    After all that red on global economy and futures over the weekend and it goes green. :banghead:

    the Donetsk drivers are very happy with Putin.

    But I haven't seen any videos of Donetsk residents cheering.

    I can't help to think there is more to the timing of this invasion than we know, particularly after the Trump saga there. We know he tried to cut military supplies to Ukraine and we know he had business interests in Russia and maybe a conniving relationship with Putin. Trump did not hide his desire to have good relations with Russia despite our military warning against it.
    Something isn't right here...

    Certification of Nordstream 2 is cancelled by Germany. So they don't buy gas coming thru Nordstream 2. That will cost Russia billions each year. Russia threatening with higher gas prices.

    Trump is a puppet on strings for Putin. Trump would sell the US and even his own children for money.
