@SenTuberville
claims Putin is invading Ukraine because Russia is a communist country that needs more land.

“He can’t feed his people,” said Tuberville. “It’s a communist country, so he can’t feed his people, so they need more farmland.”

Headline says Trump praises Putin. In the article the only quote from Trump is Putin is smart. Is that praise? That is like saying Aaron Rodgers is good at football. So stupid and disappointed in CNN

Russia military is getting embarrassed again. This isn’t going according to plan.

I heard Russia and Ukraine are moving towards peace talks at Belarus border which is a good thing

Have we heard from any of the other former Presidents calling out Biden and throwing praise on Putin?

Yes, that is praise. At times one can praise/admire ones enemies (ie the Brits and Rommel) and not be supportive, but given the timing and previous history (of Trump interactions with Putin) it does lend to the perception that Trump is supportive of Putin. (Frankly I think he actually is supportive of Putin).

I can agree that he is supportive of Putin. I still have a hard time viewing the term "smart" as praise. I also agree with the concept that it has to be taken in context of the timing and previous comments. I was expecting the article to continue with Trump saying "the way he attacked was smart" or "his use of disinformation was smart".

This is good value to the conversation and I appreciate the way you discuss things in this thread unlike G1 whose approach is a 4 yr old getting potty trained. Pissing all over the place and never hitting the mark.

Re: Hey there's about to be a war in Ukraine.
 
Not talking specifically about Trump saying it. But to me saying someone is smart doesn't mean you like them, agree them on anything, think they can't be evil motherfuckers, can't do dumb ass shit, etc.

I think everyone here is that talks regularly about politics is smart, but shit, I don't agree with 95% of it.

Obviously, declaring war on Ukraine is a smidgen different than Command Post political threads, but it's still relative.

Re: Hey there's about to be a war in Ukraine.
 
Will we see a Berlin Airlift situation in Kiev?? Will Ukraine be divided East and West like Germany?

I see the only political solution out of this as a divided Ukraine, West Ukraine in NATO, East Ukraine in the Russian sphere. That would mean Putin gets Odessa, and the manufacturing section of Ukraine, Ukraine gets the security of the NATO Alliance.

The argument I could see against this is that Putin won't accept NATO that close, but IF the Ukraine forces can bog the Russian Army down enough that Russia can't force a political change, he may see that as rebuilding the Russian Empire.

Belarus is holding a referendum to adopt a new constitution that would ditch its non-nuclear status, at a time when the country has become a launchpad for Russian troops invading Ukraine.

Belarus holds referendum to renounce non-nuclear status

The vote on Sunday is almost certain to pass under the tightly controlled rule of President Alexander Lukashenko, bringing nuclear weapons back on Belarusian soil for the first time since the country gave them up after the fall of the Soviet Union.

Really a problem. NATO and EU just playing checkers while Russia is playing chess. If you don’t see major problems how NATO has handled this crisis then I can’t help you. Germany and their bullshit energy policy along with their fence riding kinda help this crisis along to this point.

Yea you can call someone who is a bad person a genius, because they can be. But let’s look at context. When you are the former POTUS, and Putin invades a sovereign country and ur statement is “the man is a genius “ well……..little different than just a random observation about a random bad guy.

If Biden said the same thing when this happened id want him impeached so this isn’t my hatred for Trump speaking. It is an absolutely absurd thing for a POTUS to say as it was going down.

Trump defends praise of Putin even as he calls Ukrainian President 'brave'

^^ article title .. seems this isnt covering his initial praise of Putin but Trumps response to criticism of his praise

"[B]The problem is not that Putin is smart, which, of course, he's smart[/B]," Trump said. "The problem is that our leaders are dumb... and so far, allowed him to get away with this travesty and assault on humanity."

"Putin is playing [President Joe] Biden like a drum and it's not a pretty thing to watch," he continued.

His comments on Zelensky come days after he lavished praise on Putin, [B]calling the Kremlin leader "genius" and "savvy"[/B] in a radio interview.
