The goal, though I think it’s improbable, is to avoid war if possible.

If Putin expected a West in disarray, it didn't happen. NATO has remained unified & strong & is getting stronger. The EU has been effective. Major EU states are pulling their weight. & the U.S. is not only leading but doing so deftly, showing great respect & deference to allies.

Biden is moving Troops and aircraft in Europe and much more is happening behind the scenes.

I suppose he could be tweeting like TFG.

"Are you suggesting that military strikes should come?"

No. I don't know what the best thing is for us to do. In my opinion, Ukraine isn't worth sending American kids to die. Reasonable people can disagree on that one I guess, but I wouldn't send one single American kid to die there.

Why did Putin choose not to do this from 2017-2020, but he's doing it now?

It's one more thing that makes Biden look very weak, that Putin obviously thought now was the time to flex his muscles.

Very reminiscent, I'd imagine, of Jimmy Carters presidency. Ridiculous inflation and gas prices, global adversaries feeling very emboldened.

And naturally Harris went over there and humiliated herself.
