Bill, that is not going to work for Trump. Here is why: Trump is making a deal with Putin to get access to the Minerals that are in the occupied part of Ukraine. It is all about money.

jerseypatrick.bsky.social•14 days ago

Marco looks broken. He knows this is wrong yet does it anyhow. Such a weakling.

walden58.bsky.social•14 days ago

It won't lt it, obviously, because the Trump administration is an accomplice of the Russian dictator. USA sold its soul to the Devil. American people are damned forever, and they deserve it fully.

kisenosato.bsky.social•14 days ago

rubio isn't walking into anything. He is being dragged around by trump and lavrov like a floor rag he is.

This assumes he hasn't helped build the trap.

csriracha184.bsky.social•14 days ago

Rubio is a complete incompetent idiot, yet is the most qualified person in trump's cabinet

stevencleverly.bsky.social•13 days ago

Rubio is an idiot who sold his soul for a chance at the top spot one day. He deserves everything he gets. He is a piece of shit with no chance of redemption!

This is really great piece

I believe Europe is about to step up in a way we've never seen before and, ultimately, Ukraine will win. What worries me are Putin's diminishing options. His military is in shambles, but his missiles still work. I mean, some of them work.

welshrarebit.bsky.social•14 days ago

He walked into the trap the day he accepted the nomination.

latinbishop.bsky.social•13 days ago

He has kiss the ring or he is stupid

jjjessee.bsky.social•14 days ago

If Republicans had wanted Ukraine to win the war, they would have been on FOX News every single day excoriating any hesitancy, supporting, prodding Biden to do more. But all they did was bullshit about pronouns, anti-trans....

Never tell me Republicans believe in freedom.

There is no evidence.

Maybe he can be pals with Rex Tillerson after...

marymcsinger.bsky.social•14 days ago

He’s a walking panic attack

rgh1205.bsky.social•14 days ago

Whatever gave you the impression that Trump and his Overlord Musk (and I expect, behind it all, Putin) would have any intention to have Ukraine win?

infinitelyloopy.bsky.social•13 days ago

I don’t think Ukr can win let alone fight Ru to a draw. They are barely hanging on.

But so long as they want to fight for independence we should arm them to the teeth and support them. And if and when they want peace, back them to the hilt to gain lasting sovereignty.

Not sell them out.

I imagine Marco will last 12 months in this role. Lack of consistent policy will wear him down. I agree with others commenting that Europe is about to step up in a big way and ensure their collective safety. Trump, Hegseth and Vance have already shown their true colors and Europe will now respond.

He's the next Sean Spicer, he just doesn't know it yet.

jorge314.bsky.social•13 days ago

Lil Marco is a below average Florida lawyer who rose to power by bending over for corporate interests and Trump. He is not fit for the job.

madpotter.bsky.social•13 days ago

The piece also contains an absolutely masterful strategic analysis of the war’s phases from the beginning up to the present. General Hertling is a brilliant soldier-scholar.

mikernfn.bsky.social•13 days ago

Trump will try to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. This deal will be awful. (From James Baker to Marco Rubio, ugh) The question is what will Europe and Ukraine do? If they reject the deal and go it alone, will Trump try to coerce them by threatening NATO funding? Will R Senators go along?

epublicus.bsky.social•14 days ago

Lil' Marcocito is, and always has been, an empty suit who posts idiotic Bible versese on his Twitter-X account.

mantisgadfly424.bsky.social•14 days ago

Trump's naked capitulation to Zuzzia gives new meaning to "soft power".

avendarien.bsky.social•14 days ago

Rubio should be able to see it. He is pretty close to the ground.......like snake.

popeyeknewbest.bsky.social•13 days ago

Rubio has the facial and eye expressions of a zombie. One can almost hear his brain grinding “what am I doing in this s💩💩t show?”

flynavy77.bsky.social•14 days ago

Q. Why did Trump pick “Little Marco” as he calls him, to be Sec of State?

A. Because he knows he is weak & spineless. Exactly what he wants in a key cabinet position.

trodeljunco.bsky.social•14 days ago

Rubio is endlessly clueless and willing to just push the Trump agenda just have a better job title

urukhaiofisengard.bsky.social•14 days ago

Their hubris will be their downfall and tragically Ukraine's to !

Little Marco is in way over his head

Sure wouldn't be the first time.

dopplerinc.bsky.social•13 days ago

Excellent primer and précise.

trixxyil.bsky.social•13 days ago

Rubio knows he’s outmatched by everyone at the table.
I love that his insides are in knots. I hope he’s sleepless and queasy. He deserves all the discomfort he must be feeling.
He once thought he was worthy of the presidency.
Now he knows he never was and never will be.

erikausw.bsky.social•14 days ago

oh how unexpected. Sarcasm end.

jonnipunn.bsky.social•13 days ago

He was like little snack to Lavrov...they still dont realize that they deal with mass murderers......
