Ukraine is proving it’s effective. And easier to transport. Just think what could be done with US manufacturing behind it.

Tanks are the modern version of land battleships. Just not a practical thing.

I’m waiting a month to see how public reception goes. Give the public a chance to marinate their response before I try it out.

You’re right there is a list, and they don’t agree who should be in charge. Which means the internal problems would be a lot more important than the external war. Especially if there is a risk one of them might take western help to get in charge.

By the time they’re ready to think about Ukraine again, there would be half of NATO sitting there waiting for them.

If we put a bullet in Putin, there would be no more war. That tells me we’re not at war with Russia. We’re at war with Putin.

No one outruns a radio, and pretty much never a helicopter either.

Sounds like someone needs a rock dropped on them.

Taking a planet, and policing a planet, are VASTLY different operations. A few guys throwing asteroids can take a planet. Policing that planet would likely take around one operative per 100 population.

That and they’re on the pedo peddlers Rolodex. It’s starting to scream of CYA.

And Kennedy and Byrd. It’s a running shit show of politicians thinking they’ll live forever, or never lose an election. When what every one of them needs to be doing from day one, is prepping a successor in the public eye. A simple “thanks for electing me, and keep an eye on this awesome dude that wants my job too.”

Disappointing really, political leaders need to learn how to pass on to the next generation. The Dems are especially guilty of staying in office too long, and screwing up their own legacy in the process.

Stop hosting them and set up a permanent Olympic village in Greece with international funding. Standardized facilities and courses.

Not talk about what I’d do if a fascist government were to start looking for people like me.

Not collapsing democracy and making women into chattel is actually a really good campaign selling point. A hopeful future is great and all, but from what I’ve seen so far, fear and anger and way more motivating right now.

AOC and the left didn’t want Biden either in the first place. It’s not like the left is going to go vote Trump.

Probably true, Biden shouldn’t have ever started the primary. Just about any Dem could do as well.

That’s the drop down menu, it defaults to the overall national model. It’s not a poll, it’s a projection.

That’s not a national poll.

Bidens lead is currently growing. This election has nothing to do with supporting Biden, or what Biden plans to do, or how old Biden is. It’s entirely about stopping the orange Mussolini. Biden’s odds of winning will keep growing as long as his opponents keep getting more extreme. With any sane republican this election would look like 1984.

Biden can only use his quarter billion in campaign funds for his running mate Kamala. So the only choice is a Biden*/Harris ticket in November. And realistically no matter who anyone would prefer, you’re not going to sell a new candidate before November.

We’ve all in this mess, so now it’s time to grab the Go Joe, and clean it up.

Current polls show Trump gained a slight advantage after the disaster of a debate. Most voters don’t seem to be supporting Biden, so much as not supporting Trump. So it’s still a stupidly close race. Not to mention current polling is based on turnout from 2020 with some educated guesses, that have all undercounted Dem votes in every election since then.

The outlook isn’t good, but Trump is further from win than is immediately obvious.
