    What a brain-dead narrative. The one thing Trump has been completely consistent about is his unconditional servility to Putin.

    More like - Taco is on the side of Putin and has been for a very long time.

    The stupid conservatives voted for Taco even if they knew or suspected he was compromised by Russia. This is because they get a raging hard-on at the notion that Vlad is presiding over a white xtian ethnostate that hates on gays, trans, etc…they DGAF about Vlad’s plans to destroy the United States.

    People seem to forget from his first term and the giant manual that is Project 2025, the Donvict going to do what he says he’s going to do. He may take a million circles to get there, but he’ll eventually get there. It will be completely half-assed, to the detriment of humanity, and he will somehow get richer along with his inner circle sycophants. It’s not like he was secretly plotting. The point is, quit acting surprised.

    Switching sides? Donald Trump has never had any real interest in helping Ukraine. That was true the first time he was president. This is not new.

    Switching sides?? Which side was this? The side when Trump said he would take over Greenland and make Canada the 51st state? And fuck NATO?

    So Trump is now “switching sides” to not do any of those things? Right? Yes? Switching?

    Glad to hear it. Thanks for the important breaking news update.

      Those are still coming. He needs to consolidate power at home more first. That’s what the insane funding for ICE and Alligator Auschwitz are for. We’re still not even 6 months into this nightmare.

      Isn’t the article trying to raise the issue of Republicans being accessories to the the slaughter of innocent Ukrainian people?

    Don’t worry, plenty of non-Russians think Ukrainian lives are an acceptable price to pay for…

    … not really sure what they think they’re getting out of it. But it’s very important that Russian fascists get to genocide all the Ukrainians they want, apparently.

      I think that by now no one from EU got real serious about it. Like it’s a problem they can donate $$$ to solve, sign a petition or two and stay good. No one gets to understand that russian agression is the existential threat to everyone, and if not stopped, it may as well swallow a part of EU too.

      I shall enlighten you on the holy cause. A vision came to me, showing why the LORD’s faithful fully back Putin demolishing Ukraine.

      I saw God and Putin speaking. God told Putin that he’s doing a recall - too many Ukrainians were born, so God needs the Ukrainians to return to Heaven so that they can have births that follow God’s design. Putin understood this command from the LORD, and is seeing this holy mission through. God promised Putin that he’ll become an angel if he succeeds in God’s mission.

      Trump and much of the Republican base have seen this vision as well. Naturally, they are also doing their part in seeing God’s mission through.

    MAGA loves Putin. They love anyone who does whatever they want without consequences.

    Had me going in the first half. I had a brief second of hope that the U.S. was going to finally start holding Israel accountable for genocide. No, instead they are going to fuck over Ukraine.

    I hate this timeline.

    Trumpler is only concerned about himself. There are no other sides than his. And now he has no clue what is going on because he is a bitter senile old man propped up by the rich wannabe ghouls who think they’ll be made into a vampire one day.

              It’s not just the people who voted in favour, it’s the people who refused to vote against. Those ultimately decided the outcome.

                You mean all those people who got their voting rights removed for whatever reason? The people who are afraid to vote in person because of harassment? The people who cannot afford to take off work an entire day to wait in line? The people who live in a gerrymandered county who feel their vote won’t count anyway? People who have drug charges because of racism and can’t vote?

                You mean all those people? You clearly know nothing about how voting in the United States works.

                  That still leaves plenty of people who could have voted and didn’t. You can try to spin it all you want. Those people are absolutely to blame.

          The US as a political entity is controlled by the current administration, and that’s really the only thing that matters to the rest of the world in regards to the US as a country. I feel for the people in the US who fought against this happening, but in terms of geopolitics the dissatisfaction of the populace only matters in so far as it changes the actions of your government.
