    No, not really. Firstly, the US and Europe GUARANTEED the Ukraine security after they relinquished their nuclear weapons in the 1990's. After the fall of the USSR, the Ukraine was the world's THIRD largest nuclear power with full arsenals of ICBMS, SLBMs, tactical and air nukes. They gave up the big stuff willingly but wanted to hang on to some tacticals in case just such a cunt as Putin came to power. But we pressured them and told them it would be alright as we'll protect them. If anything many think the Biden Admin has been way too conservative in sending Ukraine cutting edge weapons and Putin is a bitch when it comes down to it, he's a coward. Diplomacy? He invaded a sovereign democracy and wants to control about 90% of it. The Ukrainians are doing all the dying and only ask for weapons and not troops, unlike our fucking dickhead corrupt "allies" in South Vietnam and Afghanistan. Give in to Putin because he has "nukes" (that might not work all that well I am guessing) and watch China and North Korea start invading everyone. Diplomacy is forged in strength and not weakness and indecisiveness and not going back on your security guarantees...
    All noted and thank you. What is your take on America’s involvement in the 2014 Ukrainian elections? And did Obama not say that he didn’t want to aid the Ukraine against Russia because he didn’t want to instill the false sense of belief that they could ever win? What changed that line of thinking from Obama to Biden?
    (Not being smug. I genuinely do not know.)

    342 million, but who’s counting? Lol. Believe me, you’ll get no argument from me. It’s completely unfair that this is who we have to choose from. I’m only taking a hard look at RFK because I want a 3rd God Damn option, if not a 4th, 5th and 6th.

    No, of course not. It’s all a way more complicated mess than I could ever sort out, but I do agree with whomever said, “America has Russia in a headlock while Russia has a gun to America’s head.” How do you see this ending, Sesh?

    Are you saying that we should bend the knee to any country that has nuclear weapons and do what they say?

    Fuck that. If that's what you want to do then you should just cancel the whole US military completely - what's the point in any of it and spend all those the billions on something else like universal healthcare and a big fucking statue of Putin.

    He is just wrong about vaccines.

    He is just wrong about Kerry actually winning the 2004 election - fucking crazy.

    He has this weird idea about anti-depressants and school shootings that there is no evidence for.

    The water is making kids gay.

    I really don't think the CIA killed his uncle but whatever. The thing about the JFK conspiracy thing is that if you jump onto one of the conspiracy theories then you have to admit that about 1800 other conspiracy theories are wrong.

    330 million people jesus is this the best we can do?

    Von's post there is just the social media binary bullshit. None of these people are great they never were. It's just about voting for the least bad one and when you do that remembering you aren't voting for your new best friend or person you get to fuck you are voting for the person least likely to make your life worse.

    That's a really bad thing for a leader. He's 70 years old and doesn't know how to work out if something is likely to be a fact or something is just made up. Admittedly there is a lot of it about these days but if you can do one thing for your kids and yourself it's to try and get to grips with that. RFK Jr is the kind of guy that would be fooled by a Trump or Putin lie because he has no judgement. Is that worse than being the liar, I'm not sure. I guess that depends on whether you think that enough of the time your interests will accidentally coincide with Trumps.
    I don’t know that I can fully agree with that character assessment, but I appreciate the stance.

    There are so many important things that he never addresses. If he thinks saying ‘vote for me cause I’m not him’ is going to work again, he is beyond high on his own farts.

    Maybe, but Trump is going lower and lower in the unlikability sewer and the coming charges against him will not help and may insure he cannot win his "get-out-of-jail-free" campaign. And he is also pretty high on his own MickyDees farts...

    RFK is a deranged lunatic...

    Seriously...these losers continue to clutch onto debunked "sniffing children's hair" video nonsense. But if you dare point out that a future President bragging to another guy (no idea he's being recorded) that he likes to "grab women by the pussy" without their consent because "they let you get away with it" because you're "a celebrity," THAT is okay.

    If there were an exactly-the-same video of Biden doing this, released tomorrow, they would suddenly be screaming blue murder. "Rapist Biden," they would cry.

    But if it's their cult leader, then it's just "locker room talk." Funny, I never used to chat with my buddies about "grabbing women by the pussy." Where I come from, that's called sexual assault...and it's against the law. (If somebody ever did that to my daughter, I would use one of those guns that MAGAs love so much.)

    And LBJ was a notorious creeper that like to show his cock to guys like you...
    Oh, but don't attack CATFISH, NICK. Didn't you hear? He claims he's not a MAGA...

    You do realize the whole "sniff girls in public" video was doctored, right? It's been 100% confirmed that the "sniffing" shit was added to the video, right?

    Or are you one of those guys who already knows something has been debunked but posts it anyway because you think people won't check and it'll help you win your argument?

    Sort of like how you keep claiming you're not a MAGA while you continue to parrot every single argument and argument technique that MAGA cultists do?

    Funny, I heard pretty much nothing but complete sentences and saw him walking perfectly straight at the SOTU (which is a lot more than I can say for the rebuttal, which honestly was one of the most fucked-up, misguided video speeches I've ever seen).

    The fact that you MAGA nuts think you don't sound ridiculous making these comments while continuing to laud a nutjob who literally makes late-night "Truth Social" posts night after night with terrible spelling & grammar...? I mean, what kind of "President" makes angry, childish posts critiquing the quality of Oscar hosts? Grown-ups who actually think about and/or care about REAL-WORLD ISSUES don't give a damn or have time to worry about who is hosting the fucking Oscars.
