not sure if the MAGA world or Republicans pay any attention to past events
Republican after Republican keep parroting the same message
Putin 'Smells Weak US and' What happened on Trump's watch? Nothing,''
But they were singing a different tune in early 2020
Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah described Trump's move as "a gift to Russia" and a "slap in the face at a friend and ally.
retired US Navy Adm. Jim Stravidis, the former top military commander in Europe and NATO, said hurts NATO solidarity overall, and is a gift to [Russian President Vladimir] Putin."
There are few things that President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia desires more than the weakening of NATO, 2016
let's revisit Trumps watch on Ukraine and Nato
Trump Discussed Pulling U.S. From NATO, Aides Say Amid New Concerns Over Russia
Trump’s barrage of attacks ‘beyond belief,’ reeling NATO diplomats say
Trump Belittles NATO in the Run-Up to the Putin Summit july 2018
Trump's Germany troops pullout may be his last gift to Putin before the election
Trump has offered No statements centered on Ukraine have been published on his PAC’s website. Jan 2022... no condemnation towards russia or Putin
and we all know how he tried to Strong Arm Ukraine for Dirt on Biden
So in a nutshell Putin Ask Trump to withdraw troop and destabilize nato and like a good Puppet and he did just that
Just like he Tried to steal the election here in the US
yet republicans refuse to hold him accountable for anything
But their outraged and see
That Biden relaunches 'Cancer Moonshot' initiative aimed at halving rate of cancer deaths by 2047 as arrogance
Why when It comes to Trump everything is somehow a coincidence
never planned or done in coordination with others even when the facts show otherwise ?

Republican senators say they are not moved by Fox News host Tucker Carlson's recent rants in favor of Russia's Vladimir Putin while deriding support of Ukraine.
Carlson has been on a tirade rationalizing Russia's aggression toward Ukraine and downplaying its relevance to U.S. national security.
But major Republican figures are not afraid of taking on Fox's top-rated host for what they believe is dangerous thinking, if not outright propaganda.
amazing Tucker again ...

UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss says the government is "very clear there could be an imminent invasion of Ukraine" and calls on British citizens to "leave now"
Let me guess the Brits are making this up
Yet Republicans running in high-profile primary races aren't racing to defend Ukraine against a possible Russian invasion. They're settling on a different line of attack: Blame Biden, not Putin.
The gop Doing the fear on the border … Biden cares more about Ukraine's border than America's southern border.
Because don’t forget according to conservatives we are being invaded by Brown people

We pledged security in exchange for Ukraine giving up the nukes within its borders after the USSR fell.
Ukraine supported the US by rotating a couple thousand troops through Iraq over several years, with about 20 KIA.
They’re TRYING to grow a Democracy.
Not perfectly but far better than Putin

Fox News coverage
1) Putin would not do this if Trump was in office . Leaving out who attacked nato and pulled out US troops out of Germany . Because it not crazy to think because Putin Asked
2) the Biden administration is fear mongers
Yep 150 plus thousand or russian troops aircraft and artillery Is some how normal and Biden’s fault
FYI. If Russia invaded at any level you’ll see oil 150 buck a barrel

I’m super excited about the new wave of Trump/Bannon Pro Putin Tankies on the American right.
It will help you see them more clearly and understand exactly what they are now.

In case you forgot, the guys who are about to invade Ukraine had Trump eating out of their palms right in the Oval Office as he gave them secrets.

All fear mongering we say he's going in Putin Says he Isn't conservatives believe Putin? or is it Like Trump's attempt to overturn the election We'll they didn't succeed so what's the big Deal
Blinkin “Let me be clear, I am here today not to start a war but to prevent one,” He also said something to the effect if they pull back and dont invade call me a liar I'll take that criticism
funny they yelled rigged election for 3 years and that didn't seem to bother them? But suggesting Russia might invade having 150k troop massed on Ukraine border well that's outrageous

he just thinks if the craziest nonsense he can, and claims
republicans all believe it.
i’ve never heard one person say it’s an outrage to discuss whether or not russia is preparing to invade ( my guess is no, that he’s posturing to get a deal that we don’t put NATO on his doorstep, like we didn’t want russian nukes in cuba). we can disagree about his intentions, we can disagree about whether or not it’s our problem. i don’t know anyone saying it’s an outrage to say he’s preparing to invade.

Jim being in Denial what a shocker ...
Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa., told Newsmax on Friday that the crisis over whether Russia will invade Ukraine has been '' created by President Joe Biden.'' Perry attributed Biden's weak leadership
Ric Grenell told Newsmax Friday that the administration of President Joe Biden and the national media are " marching us into war" in Ukraine. (local hero here )
Like I said to the GOP claims it outrageous to suggest the Russian might invade! or they would be supporting the administration in their conclusions
Russia has repeatedly denied having plans to invade, saying troops are conducting military exercises in the region, accusing the West of "hysteria". why does that sound just like the 2 quotes from the GOP Conservatives??

Boris Johnson
He said we must be "unflinchingly honest" about the situation in Ukraine and should not "underestimate the gravity of this moment".
Is he in on Bidens "hysteria"

NATO discredits itself by depending on U.S. troops being stationed in their countries rather than building up their own forces. And by not paying their agreed to share of money to support NATO. If European countries were as serious about doing what was necessary to defend themselves as they are about having us defend them, and, as well, not being dependent on Russian gas, and by faithfully, consistently, posing the belligerent stance against Russia that they are pretending to do during this Ukraine "crisis," Russia wouldn't be as bold as they are acting now.
Fact is, regardless of what reasons for it you conger up, Russia did not "make it into Poland" while Trump was POTUS. They weren't even threatening to.

Seems like you forgot that my "first post" to which you responded was a response to Pete F's post "If Trump was still POTUS Putin would be in Poland by now. His tiny hands are all over this crisis in Ukraine."
So either you were responding to my question to Pete about why Putin did not make it into Poland while Trump was POTUS, or you just happened to throw in some unrelated personal opinion about something else which I didn't ask for nor care about.

Former top Trump Russia advisor Fiona Hill did NOT mince words: “There's no Team America for Trump. Not once did I see him do anything to put America first. Not once. Not for a single second."
