Didn't we learn anything from Wargames?

I thought the only move to prevent this was to move in US and NATO troops into Ukraine months ago and keep them near Ukrainian military sites and call Putin's bluff if he would really essentially attack the west.
Ukraine is not member of NATO. There are no treaty obligations.

Wow, looks just like the one I saw fly over about 3 or 4 months ago. Probably a Marine contingent flying out of Bangor for some reason. The back door was open and you could see solders in there.

Looks like there are few of them flying now...

Bush was a frat boy joker, Trump an ass kissing fool, Obama was hamstrung by chronic American racism. Biden OTOH is an old man who has nothing to lose by taking a tough stand against Russia. You may be surprised.

Well that was part of the raison d'etre of his candidacy.

He's only partially fulfilled the infrastructure promises and being able to navigate Congress.

He was once ranking member/chair of the Senate foreign relations committee. The bar will be high.

Do you have a plane I can borrow? Maybe one from your beloved Putin because that's the only aircraft flying over the Ukraine right now.
Do please point out for me when and where he's shown support for Putin. You are seriously, seriously in the throes of weird mental delusions.

Fly over to Romania and rent a truck. Make sure you buy an M2A1 .50 cal machine gun first with 30K rounds of AP and a couple of extra barrels. Oh, and a heavy duty tripod. You can wear a cowboy hat and a leather jacket with the American flag printed on the back. It will be GLORIOUS!

Grandpa Cool guy isn't doing anything except for sending Kamala to Europe while Putin is taking over the Ukraine.

what would you like him to do? What would make you happy with how he's handling things? Speak in specifics. If the answers is "boots on the ground", without volunteering yourself, or your family, that answer is wrong.

You don't need to parachute in. Roads are still available for traffic. Land in a neighboring country and drive/hike in, Rambo.

Candace Owens is starting to suspect something.

"I’m reporting the facts without any angle. FACT: The events tonight in Kiev stand in stark contradiction to the speech Putin gave about his “peacekeeping” interests in the Donbass region. May very well turn out he lied to the world. Just awaiting more information."
