In 2 years the GOP will loose their control.
But much damage will be done until then 😱

Where would Ukraine be today if Trump had won in place of Biden? Perhaps the Balkins, Poland, Finland and Sweden would be looking at the Russian army on their borders. Trump's close relationship with Putin, and an obedient Republican Congress would allow Putin to mow down our European allies.

It's a bizarre alliance that Republicans are making with Russia, Hungary, Belarus and by proxy, North Korea, China and Iran. Russians don't invest their money in Russia, Hungary is among the poorest countries in Europe. Trump wants to turn the U.S. into a Mississippi economy.

It’s gotta be done!
EU, UK and other Countries like Canada need to rally together! Times are a changing👀👀

They will do just fine, they have some great tech and can innovate. I fly one of their products, bloody brilliant 😎✈️

The European economies are already in shambles. They cannot afford to spend large sums of money on a prolonged Ukraine war without taking on significant debt. The war is over.

They'd better bet those chips. All in. Tax themselves and draft people to fight in Ukraine. The alternative is the end of Europe, just like 1939.

Europe needs to expel the US from NATO, then immediately admit Ukraine to the EU and NATO. My country, the US is now worthless to the free world.

Asap, Europe needs to all things possible to lessen the dependence on USA. If after four years there is an honorable leader there, after eight, not necessarily.

There will not be a responsible leader of US in 4 years
MAGA & Musk will not allow a fair election. They have stolen or broken all the levers of free & fair elections - the mechanics, the funding, the media all in MAGA control

Yep it is down to Europe ( with Canada Australia NZ)

Maybe go bang your drums and chant outside the WH 24/7 like you did when Biden was in office. We don’t understand why y’all don’t do that now? Are you afraid? Was Joe a bigger problem? Some people are saying GUAFB

You cannot. I am in DC this weekend and the barriers from the inauguration are still up. Cannot get close enough to the White House to pull off a demonstration in front of the WH. Can't get close enough to even take a decent pic of the WH. The SS guard told me the barriers would come down eventually

Even the U.S., with all its resources, hasn't been able to 'fix' this war. So expecting European countries to suddenly step in and change the game is unrealistic. This war isn't about who bets the most chips—it’s about a brutal, grinding reality that no single power can magically resolve.

The US didn't use it's resources at all. They sent peanuts compared to what they have done in the past...come on. The US signed the security agreement when they let go of their nukes. Your agreements mean nothing so now all countries will get nukes...

America is dead already, so try to save yourselves.

Europe will increase its defense production, and make itself less dependent on the US. With increased weapons production in Europe, this will reduce purchases of American weapons - This will reduce American jobs in the US arms industry.
Why buy American weapons if the US will not help Europe?

rosebudmi.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Agreed, but do you really think the US Defense Complex is going to stand for that? They rule how tax dollars are spent and have done so for decades!

gunoff67.bsky.social•4 hours ago

It has been an unwritten rule that the US has paid a lot for NATO, but that European countries buy US weapons. Europe has usually bought US fighter jets, missiles and high-tech weapons. The US has earned billions of $ from Europe's dependence on the US. The exception is France.

I’m so ashamed of my country’s actions right now.

The problem gets more challenging as Trump relaxes US sanctions on Russia and indirectly (at least initially) begins funding (and potentially arming) Putins war machine…

I've always suspected that Europe will have an innovation boom after Trump takes office for this exact reason.

Everyone needs to give up on America. It is a thing of the past.

oregongrown.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Kick the United States out of NATO and keep all of their armaments until them to stay out of their country

My hope is that Europe tells president Krasnov to go fuck himself...they can fight Putler in Ukraine now or Berlin and Paris in 2 years...

juliec2.bsky.social•7 hours ago

It's NOT president krasnov...it's governor krasnov of the great newly added ruzzian oblast: USky. They didn't need 1 weapon to do it. Seriously though.. how weak can you be to be subsurvient to a country almost finished economy wise like he had them on the rails and didn't have the courage

There needs to be a new security architecture built by countries not run by a strongarming mafia government. Sorry guys till you guys deliver a reasonable government, we can't count you in.

Together, free nations can fight off threats, external, domestic and US.

Canada was fighting for 2 years before USA in WWII. The US has always underestimated the will and strength of other Nations . Patriots live in places 45 has never heard about.
