So is Putin just chilling waiting for Jan 20th so Trump will come in and end shipments of weapons and deauthorize attacks into Russia?
What a fucking insane, shitty fucking system btw. As painful as it is to say… the US presidents should swap out as quickly as the Brits swap PMs. Like you lost? Gone next day. I know their PMs aren’t democratically elected and all that (technically neither is the president…) and the winner/loser is known faster, just saying that 2 1/2 months of a “lame duck” president with the power to wage wars and everything at his fingertips… what a dogshit system.
Btw, if Trump comes in and ends the bullshit in Ukraine, regardless of whatever hamfisted agreement he gets pushed through, it’s going to be a W on his record that the democrats can’t tarnish. “Ahh but we wanted thermonuclear war! Putler!!!” I mean god only knows what his hog-ass has been discussing with Netanyahu regarding the West Bank, Gaza, southern Lebanon, but also forcing something there that resembles the situation pre-Oct 7 2023 will also be seen as a W for casual observers who just wanted to stop seeing exploding kids on their feeds every day. The fact that Biden has allowed both of these atrocities to continue endlessly, and seemingly would love to keep going if he could, like who the actual fuck wants this shit besides the most decrepit, 90 year old zombies like him and the executives at Raytheon, etc.?
I’d be shocked if Trump actually ended the war rather than begrudgingly doubling down out of fear of looking “weak”. He’s nothing if not petty and ego driven. In the unlikely event he does actually fracture NATO or allow a negotiated end to the war, there’s a credible argument that would make him probably the best president in my lifetime. I think “personally preventing WW3” tops any other recent presidential achievements like creating a federal department of ethnic cleansing and illegal domestic surveillance infrastructure (Bush/Biden), destroying Iraq (Bush/Biden), destroying Afghanistan (Bush/Biden), destroying Libya (Obama/Biden), or pulling a bait and switch to implement RomneyCare (Obama/Biden).
