” President Donald Trump, during a visit to Paris for Bastille Day, said, “France is America’s oldest ally. A lot of people don’t know that,” and added, “France helped us secure our independence, a lot of people forget.” “

Right?

“They didn’t make a defensive front like the Russians did near Crimea, “

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Well Ukrainians have built defensive lines, but... I expect the Russian defensive lines in Crimea to be better. Here is the reason :
Russia stole Crimea in 2014 and attacked Ukraine in 2022... this means that Russia prepared their defensive lines in Crimea for 8 long years before deciding to go for the rest of Ukraine... That’s a lot of time, but it produces near perfect defensive lines.

The world didn’t react against Russia in 2014... and because of that, we now have near general war in Europe...

“Given the threat from these groups, the priority for Western countries ought to be securing their own borders.
Instead, they ignore that. They open their borders even wider, and send money to Ukraine instead.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

First of all the aid package was sent to Israel and Taiwan as well.
I was shocked to discover that a few conservatives here on FR turned their back against Israel as well... just like Biden seems to be doing as we speak, by refusing to ship a number of needed bombs to Israel so they can defend themselves. Trump just angrily demolished Biden on this. Right?
Secondly, Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan have signed agreements with America when it comes to security and allied collaboration. Quite noteworthy.

Are a minority of republicans turning into “make peace not war” and “defund the police” idealists? Will these people also want to disarm American citizens next?

America has spent about Two Trillion dollars on the Iraq war and about Two Trillion dollars on the Afghanistan war - two muslim countries. And during that time America’s border was way more secure than it is today! Thus, the comparatively minuscule sum of 60 billion given to the white Christian Western defenders in Ukraine is, evidently NOT, what prevents to protect America’s border. Not One Bit. It’s a fallacious and beyond the scale disingenuous excuse to just do nothing.

Woke America has not complained much about helping Muslims countries. But since Ukraine is white, Christian and having a Jewish president... a woke group on FR has shown it is displeased about it. The philosphy that “Christians and allies should NOT be helped”... is a wrong philosophy in my view. Especially knowing that +80% of those 60 billion dollars directly benefits American factories and the American worker!

We CAN easily protect America’s border WHILE collaborating with our allies as they are right now under a bloody attack by Neo-soviet Russian forces (1and their Communist North Korean and Islamist Iranian allies).

Al Qaida, Hamas, Kremlin, Hezbollah, the Islamic brotherhood, etc... all those terrorist organizations have killed so many civilians it’s hard to keep track...

“The Republican Party is a total joke and has been for decades, totally worthless.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The main reason Republicans in Congress regularly look like jokers... is because we are always hitting our own first. We spend our time eating our own in what can be called “political cannibalism”.
The Democrats may lack principles but they are disciplined and they are always sticking together - what ever the cost. That is their force. Group discipline.

“You’ll never get me to change my mind regarding the waste of tax payer dollars fighting proxy wars against Russia, China or Iran.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Answer:
WE didn’t start those proxy wars you are talking about. The Russia-Hamas-Iran-China-North Korea Alliance started the proxy war against the USA. Thus, we can’t ignore it, it’s technically and politically impossible to do so.
Action means Reaction.

If Antifa gangs regularly attack your neighbors homes, committing arson, rape, plundering and killing many of them... as a Christian do you just sit by in your living-room reading a book while avoiding to call the police (preserving the police budget) and praying that Antifa won’t be reaching your own home...?
According to your logic, as long they don’t reach YOUR house... who cares about what Antifa does to the neighbors...

Trump did in fact initiate the whole process of helping Ukraine with lethal weapons. He REVERSED the previous Obama policies which refused to send ANY weapons at all to Ukraine. Trump often denounced those Obama policies, criticizing him for only sending “pillows and blankets”.

So when it comes to Ukraine, you are clearly supporting the Obama philosophy.
I and supporting the Trump philosophy.

Remember this:
Trump had a long conversation with Mike Johnson days before the 90 billions dollar aid for Israel/Ukraine/Taiwan/ was approved. It happened at Mar-a-Lago.
Johnson got Trump’s go ahead to make this budget go through.

Trump approved those +90 billions.

“It’s because our borders are being overrun with illegals”

Answer:
Only Trump did an ok job on that even though he didn’t get the time needed to accomplish it all. He will win in November. It will be Americas LAST, LAST, chance to fix the illegal immigration problem. If Trump doesn’t succeed next year, I consider the issue uncourtly doomed.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

“...our elections are stolen...”

Answer:
Indeed something went wrong in the last election, but that will only make Trump win easy in November. It got him 4 years of pause in-between two elections, greatly preparing him for the job. So no harms done. And since Trump can’t be reelected a third time, he will have full power to Govern the very way HE wants. Let’s just hope we keep the House, and get the Senate back.

“...our economy is being destroyed by war mongers like you who follow Joe Biden lockstep, and think that by continually throwing unaccounted-for billions of taxpayer dollars to Ukraine, to support another proxy war with Russia, that it’s the answer to the world’s problems.”

Answer:
I’m not a warmonger. What Biden did for Ukraine was initiated by Trump. Remember?
Trump was the toughest on Russia. He sent shiploads of high-tech US weaponry to Ukraine, Expelled 60 Russian diplomats from America, condemned Russia’s annexation of Crimea, levelled a Russian airbase in Syrian with 59 Tomahawk missiles, massacred 300 Russian soldiers in Syria, impose massive sanctions on Russia. And even threatened Putin of the annihilation of Moscow in his quest to protect Ukraine. Trump is the initiator in chief of the whole process in helping Ukraine.
Biden and Europe had no other choice than to continue what Trump started.

Trump is staunchly opposed to the idea of letting China take Taiwan, letting Hamas win in Israel and letting the neo- soviets in Russia take over our ally Ukraine which we have TWO big international agreements with: one from 1994 the other from 2008.
I’m supporting Trump’s policies and what he has done against Russia and for Ukraine / 100%. Does that make me a warmonger? For supporting Trump’s policies?

We can’t let the Hamas-Russia-Iran-China-North Korea-China Alliance take over Taiwan, Ukraine, Israel. THAT would be VERY costly for America if they succeeded.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“...can’t support another proxy war with Russia...”

Answer:
Russia is the one who started the proxy war against the USA, it’s not the other way around. We are just responding to the aggression. Russia initiated the whole mess. They can end the war NOW, by respecting the rule of international law, and bring their invaders from Ukraine back to Moscow.

Trump is also the one who started the economic war with China! Smart move by Trump.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Answer:
“Don’t you think the insanity needs to stop?”

Yes indeed. I think it must stop.
Only LAW AND ORDER can do that!

If we would let the Neo Soviets in Russia, the commies in China and the Islamists in IRAN gobble up our allies... its like letting criminals attack and rape our unarmed US citizens in America while telling our police: “don’t intervene! It’s the US citizens problem, let them handle the criminals themselves!” That would be utterly wrong. Right?

The thing is I’m talking like a true pacifist.
Your appeasement of unlawful acts is actually pushing for more wars!

“Yeah, and when 210 Republicans voted in favor of Kevin McCarthy, while just eight Republicans joined 208 Democrats in ousting him, people on this website cheered.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Well said.
What happened was shameful.
The act of eating our own, a political form of cannibalism, made us look like crazy and utterly unreliable.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has a bird brain. Her unintelligent behavior and solo kamikaze moves is hurting our image and is hurting Trump’s chances for reelection in November.

What she does is at times so unintelligent and crazy I start to wonder if she isn’t a trojan horse planted into our ranks in order to make us look crazy all the time.

With such so called “republican” Trump doesn’t need enemies!
She has become a liability for Trump, she is sabotaging his chances.

No wonder Trump has rebuked her, AGAIN!

Unlike you she’s only one with the fortitude to stand up for America .

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Unlike me and Trump you mean. Right?
Trump has rebuked her many times already. But she continues to undermine him anyway! She is sabotaging his chances to win in november. What makes her dangerous is her lack of intelligence.

As I am a Trump supporter, I can’t support people like MTG.
I think she is a “submarine” planted in our ranks by our opponents to ruin our chances to win elections.

We need more Reaganism and Trumpism within our ranks. We don’t need meatheads doing crazy stuff. Trump has had enough of her behavior.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has a bird brain and is a disgrace for the Republican party. She is hurting our image.
What she does is so unintelligent and so crazy I start to wonder if she isn’t a trojan horse planted into our ranks in order to make us look crazy all the time.

With such so called “republican” Trump doesn’t need enemies!
She has become a liability for Trump as well.

Well... Mogadishu and beirut were merely tiny police operations by the US. The US had a 48 hour battle in Mogadishu and a couple of years of counterterrorism operations there. It was definitely not a war.

By the way we are still in Somalia. 500 US troops in Somalia as we speak. We regularly conduct airstrikes there. It’s just counterterrorism efforts, not war.

https://theconversation.com/despite-one-of-the-us-militarys-greatest-fiascoes-american-troops-are-still-in-somalia-fighting-an-endless-war-206368#:~:text=The%20battle%20was%20considered%20one,the%20militant%20group%20al%2DShabaab.

However, Iraq and Vietnam... They were true wars.
Militarily speaking, America won both of them.
Iraq was won in 21 days, and.. we got him! Remember? I supported both wars.
Our mistake was that we changed our objective after the great victory in Iraq. We decided to do nation-building there... that was a costly mistake.

In Vietnam we were crushing the Russian proxies. We had won the war! It’s only because of the marxists, hippies and Hanoi Janes in America that prematurely forced us to withdraw. American internal and political discord let the Vietcong communists take over. That’s all. Its has nothing to do with the US army.

Militarily speaking, America has never lost any wars.
Politicians make us “lose” wars.. every time they listen to our homegrown pacifists and hippies that is...

Over Ukraine? LAUGHABLE!

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Again, western tactical nukes could easily be used in retaliation against Russia, if the Kremlin is mad enough attacking NATO troops with nukes.
Nothing is laughable about that scenario.

The Minsk Accords? You are joking I presume?
The Minsk Accords were a scam, thus... logically doomed to fail.

Let me refresh your memory.
Ukraine’s massive Crimea region was invaded and stolen by Russia on February 20th, 2014.

The so called “Minsk Agreement” of September 2014 came 7 months AFTER Russia had already annexed Crimea...
The Minsk accords never demanded that Russia had to give Crimea back to Ukraine! Can you imagine, what a scam!

How on earth could anyone agree to letting a huge chunk of one’s country to a thief who stole it in the first place, and then have to AGREE on suck unfair situation??

Imagine if Mexico suddenly invaded and annexed Texas, and then said, “hey, let’s sign a peace deal with Washington now.. but we keep Texas of course.” Don’t you see how bombastically crazy that sounds? Well, that is exactly what they wanted to push down Ukraine’s throat!

Minsk agreement = Scam.

“Big dogs indeed bark to warn predators away. Have you ever owned a big dog french_zeeper?”

>>>>>>>>>>>

You confirmed my point!
The big dogs in the West aren’t barking because they know Russia can’t use its nuclear arsenal. Thus, the West isn’t afraid about Russia’s nuke threats. Thus, no barking from the West!

Putin though... seems scared to death about NATO. That’s why HE has been barking about his nukes non-stop for over two (2!) years now! It’s a sign he is scared down to his bones.

Small dogs yelp constantly for nothing, bark bark bark.

Big dogs bark rarely, only when it’s necessary,

A number of French nuclear submarines are on duty non-stop, 24h/24h, 365 days out of 365 days.
A single nuclear attack against France, means Moscow would be vaporized - at best. At worst, every single Russian city.

France has developed its redundancy strategy to near perfection. French subs could easily get the orders to destroy Russia, even after Paris would have been vapourized first.

Again, the end or the world would follow. Putin would benefit from that? No.
That’s why he is gaslighting so much, yelping angryly and endlessly like small dogs usually do.

Big dogs though... they have all the nukes necessary but never need to utter the “nuclear word”, not even once. They are self-confident enough, they are the ones deserving respect.

Russia will use battlefield nukes on NATO forces in Ukraine.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

No Russia can’t. Just relax my FRiend.
Western tactical nukes would could easily be use in retaliation against Russia. Putin’s knows this.
He doesn’t want to lose his opulent wealth and all his Dachas... And his mafia boys want to keep their wealth as well... they would assassinate Putin, another coup in Russia, if he ordered a nuclear strike against anyone.

Putin is just a big mouth, he screams NUKES NUKES NUKES all the time,,, since 2 years now.... yawn... boring...
