It's like every time there's a war everybody forgets how fucking long they take. WW2 took six years. The Vietnam War took almost 20 years, same with the Afghanistan War. Anybody expecting anything solid within the next couple years is delusional. Ukraine is in it for the long haul.
We can hope Putin dies from being an old fuck and Russia gives up
The US is on its last legs though. It badly needed this win. The US falls before Putin dies.
What drugs are you on and where can I get some?
Clearly hasn't compared the US and Chinese economic data
Lol literally every single line of that post is absolutely nonsense.
Lol in what universe? By way metric is the most powerful nation in the world limping along?
If we badly needed a win we wouldn't be sending 30+ year-old surplus gear. Ukraine would have F-35s instead of the air force trying to pawn off A-10s because we're retiring them and don't want to break them down.
Unless he's a Highlander there's no fucking chance.
I always take a peek at the comment history when I see things like this. And this guy basically just woke up to say things like this in one specific thread.
I'm no longer a mod of anything these days, but if I had a mod-hammer I'd send you into the next galaxy.
