Shame on trump for not having the balls to give a speech like that. A woman has bigger balls than him!

IIRC those are called Thatchers. :grin:


I don't think Trump comprehends 'shame' the way you and I do. I think it's a blurry, confusing, cosmic notion to him, like a blind trust, having personal integrity or women saying No.

And it's automatically hard for Trump to measure up to other speech givers, regardless of who they are. He can't really read, has a glossary of about 80 words, and is ignorant of history and politics in a way only low IQ nepo manbabies can be. Trump has neither the mental nor testicular fortitude required to be a great speaker.

You need some relationships destroyed, an economy kneecapped or a diaper shat? Trump's got you covered there.

With the United States incapable of acting, it falls to Ukraine to stand alone and deliver consequences to Russia.

Ukrainian Strikes on Russian Refineries Causing Crisis for Putin

Fuel shortages and rising gas prices in Russia are most welcome news in Ukraine while Putin’s war economy takes a big hit, impacting his ability to continue his invasion.
Ukraine is now producing 60 percent of its own weapons on the frontline up from 40 percent at the start of the year.

Makes me think how further along Ukraine would be toward ejecting Putin's troops out of Ukraine if Trump lost his bid for cranking up his fascist takeover of America. By way of his criminal and treacherous behavior, I hope Trump has convinced enough Americans that having a do-nothing Republican led House and Senate whose only job is to rubber stamp Trump's self-serving word and deed will have them give the Democrats the check on Trump and his trampling of Our Constitution and the Rule of Law.

I have to say that the Ukranians are NOTHING like the russians despite being their neighbors. This conflict has made them stronger and given them a steely resolve to never get invaded again. They are the perfect example of the indomitable human spirit. Yes, they got tons of external help but only because it is in everyone's best interests to stop the russian cockroaches from launching a full scale European genocide.

It's very simple. Europe is arming Ukraine so it doesn't have to fight itself directly, which would incur terrible costs in human life. Ukraine has the skills now and the know-how, if nothing catastrophic happens, they will fight until the collapse of Russia

Another Russian refinery crippled overnight. Increasingly seeing videos of fuel lines from all over Russia the last week or so.
Most estimates put about 25% of Russian refinery capacity out of commission presently.
