Busy Mr Trump

Brilliant love it

Stalin was a nasty piece of work brought to prominence by the Russian Communist Party.The same Communist Party that Lenin stood for.
Lenin was also a nasty piece of work who ordered the massacre of the Tsar’s family then went on a rampage of forced Socialist Collectivisation at gunpoint and called the result a Socialist Collective meaning exactly the same thing as a Communist one.
The title NASDAP doesn’t translate as Nationalist it translates as a German Socialist Party just like the Russian Communist Party.
Their joint invasion of Poland was in the name of Socialism not Nationalism.Nationists don’t remove and trash national borders including their own.
They build them and celebrate them.

And yet you seem to forget the British did the exact same thing in their day
And now it has a lovely name the commwealth

Maybe he was thinking how the hell can i better these chinese people, is it possible

So has anyone figured out if these tariffs are actually happening, or not?

The biggest submarine in the world, the Belgorad, has the devastating capability to destroy the whole coastline of any country in the world to make the land inhospitable for 20 years or more as the sun has weapons to create a tsunami.

Crops can’t be grown for 20 years or more, imagine the whole of the western and eastern side of the American coastline completely unusable for agricultural , residential or fishing, the most densely populated cities of New York,Boston, Los Angeles and San Francisco all unliveable.

Not sun, I meant sub.

Donald Trump and the Hokey-Kokey dance of tariffs.

But slightly better news it appears that Dopy Don is realising that Putain may not be a really good guy who always tells the truth. Trump was saying that maybe he was “being tapped along”.
It is hard for him to say that because it infers that Trump is capable of being strung along, and is in fact fallable. He can’t readily admit that.
Let us hope that Trump opens his eyes to what the vast majority of us can see, and that the Russian doesn’t whisper sweet nothings in his ear again.

So he admits he could have been wrong…ok good.

Make your mind up, it looks as if he already has.

I agree with you (wow!)
He has tried a ‘friendly approach’ first tactic, so now he will change tactics and increase (or at least imply) an element of warning or even threat …all textbook basic stuff I would think.

Or are you one for going in ‘all tough guy’ at first instance, rather than using that approach as a last resort, after trying to reason with somebody and try and resolve a ‘situation’ in a calmer way.

Never go for a job on door security mate.

You forgot, or ignored, that bit.

Either way if he really wants to get into a fight with Russia, following Starmer and Macron by marching NATO into Ukraine ain’t going to work.It would actually be the worst option.
There is no and never was any, winning scenario in the Cold War turning hot.It was always based on mutually assured destruction being better than surrender.Let alone with NK, China and Iran joining in.
Franglais seems to have forgotten that.

The British haven’t been Nationalist since 1066.
It’s why Ireland had to fight to leave the UK Collective and Scotland gave up.

Something I agree with you about.
And that is me speaking as somebody who thinks it is always a good tactic to face up to somebody (even if you are crap ing yourself in secret :joy:) and not show fear, but try and resolve a situation, …but with me having no military experience maybe I am talking through my arse here (again :joy:)

So putting Brit and/or NATO troops into Ukraine as Starmer wanted would be madness…end of.

On other hand neither does appeasement work, so imo (for what it’s worth) Trump is trying to find a solution in between…
Take no notice of the haters, it is what he is doing…a bit unorthodox as usual, but nevertheless trying.

I aint a pretend or wannabe politician, I know as much as the next guy on the street about it all…he knows much more, and stuff that the lay man does not.

Russia was always going to win this war with no Western help, Ukraine would be invaded eventually and occupied…fact, by shear numbers of resources on both sides.
So is compromise and damage limitation if not an ideal solution a suitable one?

Afaik some areas of the Ukraine are Russian speaking sympathisers anyway, so a loss of that particular territory for starters aint gonna be missed.

There has to be a solution somewhere, Ukraine is bettrr making an element of concession rather than being invaded.

As for Franglais :roll_eyes:…Him being all gung ho with bravado calling for action and sending in troops pro Starmer is hilarious coming from him…
He’s like Rambo in a cardigan.:joy:

All that will do is trigger off WW3 or at keast escalate things into some aspect of war that will include our own troops.

Let s just wait to see if Trump comes up with something first.

Some situations have no good solutions, is absolutely true.

Putain invading Ukarine is such a situation.
Letting him take his wins there, as Trump was seeming to think was OK, would only allow him to regroup and do it all again.

Sending NATO troops into the front tline, would be a step too far. So it seems that the idea of lots of support for Ukraine, and continue and even screw down harder on economic sanctions on Russia is the best course. Not a solution but the least bad option.

Saving Ukraine is not an existential threat to Russia. Do you seriously believe that Russia would accept nuclear obliteration just so that Putin can save face? If the Americans gave the Ukrainians the weapons to defend itself from Russian attacks Putin would be toppled. Once the Politburo saw that they would not succeed in their aims the war would be over.

My dress sense has little to do with this.
And how can you talk? You have posted a photo where you demonstrate that you cannot tell the front from the back of a baseball cap!

The idea, that Starmer and others seem to support of sending in NATO or other troops
as a peace keeping force… to suppport an agreed truce
does not seem very Rambo like to me.

Trouble is starmer doesnt want peace he wants all of crimera to belong to the ukraine. That is why he wants boots on the ground. He has repeatedly said that. Zelenski doesnt want peace either otherwise he would of kept to the deal he signed months ago rather than singing it then runn8ng round to see if he could get a better deal.

He is in support of any dictator its not his life in danger he can sit back with a warm glow watching his master destroy the country whioe others lay their lives on the line

Forgot to add the shounting of told belifes against anyone that stands up to it

The issue for sending British military to the Ukraine in a peacekeeping role can really backfire to start a war with Russia and the UK,if our troops are accidentally shot by the Russian troops or they are shot at on purpose, outr army would have to fire back to defend themselves and shoot back to kill the Russians.

What dress sense?:joy:
You just strike me as a bloke who has a penchant for cardigans that is all…so I’m right then? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Ooohh apologies for that, …but if you can carry it off why not.:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:
I prefer it to The man from M&S look.but there ya go.

But just for you…seeing as we’re ‘‘friends’’…took your advice right way round this time.:joy:

Enough about my favourite subject…me.:grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
Back on thread.

Any military force sent in,.especially a NATO themed one will not be recognised my mad assed Putin as peacekeeping and will escalate to a fight.
Was that not part of the reson for Putin kicking off in thr first place,.NATO encroaching into his area or locality?

Keep that cardigan fastened up btw it s a cold day.
