@officejjsmart Very easy, by getting groomed by conservative ideology for several decades.
Once they believe that they will believe anything that's fed to them, like that putin is a strong leader and we should follow that example here in the US.
This was a long time coming
How did America ๐บ๐ธ become nuts?
We have an enemy, Russia ๐ท๐บ, distributing propaganda to hurt US interests.
Thereโs a ๐บ๐ธ Congressman who believes ๐ท๐บ propaganda.
He regurgitates it to Tucker.
Then the richest American encourages others to watch this interview.
Itโs insane.
@secretsqrl123 But you still not pointing out the real reason the bill didn't pass. That's because the GOP never cared about UA winning, they like Putin more than they like Zelensky and only supported ๐บ๐ฆ because Dems publicly shamed them into doing it but they don't care anymore
everyone chill the F out.....
the ukraine bill did not pass today (SHOCKED) not.
as i stated 2 weeks ago, the bill will not pass in its current form... too many poison pills in it (bidens border demands).
bills like this nearly NEVER pass first try.
now it will go to the house and senate to be reworked...
deals will be made, the bill will be made better...
threats, lies, and more threats will not help, the admin has over 5 billion in cash, and another 20 billion or so in the DOD budget he can move around (he has already started doing that with unfunded aid to gaza)... only the admin coming to the table will help get this over the line faster... this like it or not has to be a give and take...
MOST people int he USA done even know the war is still going on.. but they see other issues that HAVE to be fixed.. and by biden putting border money in this bill he started the negation on this.
i hope that the aid for ukraine in this bill is larger (republicans gave more than ask in the first 2 bills) after its reworked with more money for weapons and less for BS that was in it (gaza, west bank, money to NYC, US used money, etc). this needs to be a weapons bill not a jobs bill in my opinion.
@Maks_NAFO_FELLA I said that before and I'll say it again the GOP doesn't give a fuck about ๐บ๐ฆ. They actually want to rule the US like Putin does. They only temporarily supported ๐บ๐ฆ because they were publicly shamed by Dems but they don't care anymore.
The US swings between being a powerful ally on the world stage and isolationism.
Will the US in the long term prefer to be isolationist, meaning: leave international partners (UK, Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Taiwan, Ukraine, Israel) to fend for themsleves?
@Kasparov63 Why is it bizarre? I've been saying this from the beginning and I'll say it again. The GOP was never for ๐บ๐ฆ, they only helped because they were shamed into helping by dems and they saw it was popular for them at that moment, now we see what happens when that changes.
Bizarre, as Graham has been good on recognizing the obvious fact that helping Ukraine *is* helping America. Directly, indirectly, short and long-term. Itโs a win-win of global and generational proportions, just as failure will be a costly loss for decades to come.
@Kasparov63 It's probably not that. I have heard from some analyst that the real reason things are working this way is because the US wants RU to be slowly grounded in UA. They want RU to always keep the hope that they can always win so they keep investing more resources.
The White House doesnโt want Ukraine to win. The question is why. Since they wonโt say, the answer is something they are ashamed of and/or would suffer for politically. So I believe they are still trying to make deals with Russia and Iran instead of defeating them.
โก๏ธKyiv mayor says Ukraine is turning authoritarian as conflict with Zelensky persists.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko has told Der Spiegel that Ukraine is moving towards authoritarianism, seemingly making a veiled criticism of President Volodymyr Zelensky. ย "At some point we will no longer be any different from Russia, where everything depends on the whim of one man," the former heavyweight boxing champion said in a Dec. 1 interview.
Ukraine is on the verge of surrender.
Ukraine Elections in 2024 canceled.
Zelensky is on the same path as Mussolini.
The sooner he goes is probably the better for him.
This part of the world is a tough place.
I'd be surprised if he escapes.
@UFCHokage Chito will leg kick him to another TKO, O'Malley didn't become champ because he improved after that fight. He won because of the matchup he had and Chito still is a bad matchup for him unfortunately.
