I am old enough to remember when the US stood up to Russia and put them in their place. Now the US under Trump gives Russia everything they want. Basically the US let Russia win the old cold war. Never thought the US would rollover so easily and lose the war without even a whimper. - ThreadSky

Just wait a minute. The village idiot is in charge of the USA that is true. But what isn't true is that we would not defend Europe. We have a person in office of the presidency who believes in money only, but he can be removed. When the time is necessary.

I actually think that may be in question right now. I do hope you are right. One thing I know, other countries can't trust Trump one iota. The problem with Trump right now is his minions are in full support of him, without question.
I'm hoping you are correct.

His support is faltering. The farmers in the Midwest are starting to see the errors, it's going to take time. We must have media coverage on the Ukrainians. The Europeans must help us get that media coverage. Christians don't want to see other Christian children bleeding in the streets of Ukraine.

They are a blind, closeminded and miserable group those MAGA. I'm hoping once the cost of tariffs and lack of medical care are going to start changing their mind? It's a hard go when people are not too bright.
I love your optimism.

I'm both pissed and ashamed. This ain't the America I grew up in.

Imagine what McCarthy would make of this? Not that I’m a fan you understand, but his whole thing was the insidious threat to American democracy from the USSR. Now it appears that the American president has given Putin his throat. He’s like one of those snappy little dogs who cow before a bigger dog.

Yeah, they used to jail people for thinking the way Trump does.

asenathmagic.bsky.social•14 days ago

They’d jail them for way less too. If you even had a friend who they thought had ‘commie’ sympathies, you were tainted by association.

Now we have Trump discussing Ukraine’s surrender with the hostile nation that invaded them, and without the Ukrainian president. It’s absolutely outrageous.

America is giving up it's top spot to China and they let Russia win the cold war.
How did we get here? Imagine what Kennedy and Reagan would think? All their efforts...kaput.

The only thing keeping me going is this thought: all tyrants topple. It may take years, but they all topple. I resolve to do what I can as a mere citizen to resist and undermine the b.s. that now plagues my nation. I am not alone, either. There are many of us who are TRUE Americans, not lackeys.

Amen Brian.

Yep. And the brainwashed masses don't seem to care. It's disgusting. Revolting.
