@Arjay.M88 I value dissenting opinions such as yours. However, I respectfully disagree. RKF just doesn't have the popular appeal to beat Trump, whereas Harris has a fighting chance to succeed in beating Trump. Mathematically, "a vote for RFK is a vote for Trump." That's why so many Trump trolls are getting on sites like this one to try and dissuade Americans from voting for Harris.

I barely knew the name Buttigieg until a week or two ago. But he is incredibly well spoken (like Jake Broe). A breath of fresh air for us nerds that like logic and common sense.

@wisenber You're looking at the trees but Jake is looking at the forest. Your post might as well just say "The border, the border, brown immigrants, fentanyl!". Jake just brought up an important fact. Orban (Putin's loyal lap dog) just did his own "Peace tour" where he went from Kyiv (to beg Zelensky to accept all of Putin's demands), to Moscow, to Beijing, to America. But Orban did not fly to DC. Orban flew directly to Mar-a-Lago. For anybody watching the big picture, it's very clear that a global game of "democracies vs dictators" is forming. And Trump is on the wrong side as he is siding with Putin, Xi, and Kim Jong Un. Do you support democracy or dictators? If you live in a democractic country, you are free to make your own choice. If you live in a dictatorship, you are not free to express your decision. Where do you stand on this issue?

@clarkeorchard2304 Agreed. Russia keeps paying itself very well to keep their GDP and the ruble artificially above water...borrowed time.

@claudiopereira9900 If international trade didn't exist you would be correct. However, international trade does exist. Therefore, entirely self sufficient countries will be financially much much poorer.

In the Russian MoD, "no body, no problem".

@506thparatrooper Nobody denies that Trump gave the Ukranians javelins. The real story is that Trump witheld the javelins and tried to squeeze info out of the Ukranians about his political opponent to be used in the upcoming election. If I remember these events incorrectly, please direct me to a reliable reference to learn otherwise.

@quinton01 Are you sure about your claim? Please direct me as to where I can find Jake Broe saying that Ukraine is winning. Thanks for backing up your words.

@Jeroen_Maes What Russians are promised and what they actually get can be very different things. And printing more money just makes the money worth less. Come on PDL, that's basic economics!

@beth7935 Great point! Hadn't thought of that.

@AgatBluvsky-ow9gp How do you have access to information (your claim above) that the rest of us don't have access to? Please show us where we can confirm your claim so we know that you're not just lying?

@TenylegMinekez-uc7co Please cite a non-echo chamber source.

Agreed. Yet another example of "actions speak louder than words"...especially is someone is a known liar.

@Jeroen_Maes Thank you for coming to the same conclusion as what I'm trying to point out...recruiting replacement troops is getting more and more expensive for Russia as it burns through it's citizens willing to support Putin's war effort. And it must be admitted that this isn't going well for Russia. They intended to sack Kyiv with 190k troops. Now it's 2.5 years later and they've had to recruit (and pay for) several hundred thousand more troops.
2
@Jeroen_Maes Oh, we may be kinda saying the same thing. Yeah, I think Russia pays out most benefits and mostly to the 100% agreed amount. However, I've seen too many stories of soldiers, their wives, or their parents getting the bureaucratic run around about late or absent pay, including death benefits, to make me believe that everyday Russians don't get screwed over pretty often.
2
@TenylegMinekez-uc7co If Russia keeps having this rate of losses in Ukraine (men and materiel), it won't be long until the Netherlands will be able to defeat Russia. Let's be honest, the Dutch would just take Moscow, St Petersburg, and Kaliningrad...and leave the rest, unless it was mineral rich.
2
@Jeroen_Maes What percentage of the time is Russia paying out moneys owed and where can we confirm this information?
2
@Arjay.M88 So we both agree that our current crop of delegates (Kennedy, Trump, and Harris) are all crap choices?
2
@AstroGremlinAmerican I don't think Trump would take contracts away from Americans arms manufacturer, I just don't think the final product will be destined for Ukraine...ever.
2
@TenylegMinekez-uc7co Interesting viewpoint you've taken. Please educate us as to why you believe that anyone who supports this channel "has no clue about anything". I'd like to hear your rationale.
2
@stockdale829 1) A peace deal is not inevitable and you cannot predict the future. 2) The only people who need to be held accountable for Ukraine's casualties are the people committing the casualties, Russians. Please explain if you disagree.

@MSL-Trader I don't understand your comment. Please explain.

@Soupertrouper He'll be paying his trolls by not sending them to the frontline.

@wisenber -Jake's channel is a single-issue channel about Ukraine, that's the channels intended purpose. -You glossed over the fact that Ukraine's own interests are first and foremost to NOT be controlled by Russia and Putin. **Please educate me as to what Trump has done to promote democracy. I'd like to hear your take on this.** -Xi is watching because he wants Taiwan. Yes, I too am frustrated with Biden not allowing Ukraine to use western weapons inside Russia. However, Biden's half ass response is still way more aggressive than Trump's recent proposal to Zelensky that Ukraine needs to give Russia the land that it stole from Ukraine. Both you and I are smart enough to know that patronizing a bully never works out well in the long term. Please feel free to disagree! I'd love to hear your counterarguments.

@tedteddington6223 I am absolutely loving the non-sequitar jump in logic you just made Ted. However, we both know that is NOT what dpelpal was saying. But I don't want to stop you from your next statement (that the US is responsible for the war in Ukraine).

@grahortarg9933 So, educate us. The floor is yours.

A lot of people saying it’s a shame that America has sided with dictators. This ISN’T America, this IS Trump. There’s a big difference between the two.
1
@GalAxy-u9s Don't forget that America is a capitalist country. We Americans aren't afraid to be successful.
1
@tedteddington6223 All I hear you saying is "the sky is falling, the sky is falling!". Putin is a multibillionaire with absolute power in Russia. He is painfully aware that if he launches nukes at another nuclear power, it will be mutual destruction, and Putin will lose everything that he currently has...and the Kremlin will have him eliminated. Putin is smart, he's never going to risk losing everything he has, including his life.

@briangasser973 Didnt 80 countries just sign the Ukrainian Peace Summit agreement in June 2024? How does this compare with the number of countries in BRICS?
1
@РоманРеньга Why do Russian men keep signing up to fight in Ukraine knowing there's a good chance they're going to be used as cannon fodder in a suicide attack to capture a tree line between two farm fields?

@TenylegMinekez-uc7co What is your reasoning for thinking that Claude isn't bright? Thanks for backing up your claims.
1
@JoanneVanNess-w4w When you look at Agenda 47’s/Project 2025’s Schedule F and Unitary Executive Theory as well as MAGA’s anti-Union stance, you begin to realize that Trump isn’t America first. He’s “me first”. There is a concerning push to consolidate federal power around one person, Trump.
1
@beth7935 Making outlandish claims is one thing Trump does. But he also very carefully phrases things that could be vote losers for him or things that could reasonably held against him as inciting violence or even defamation. In this respect, he knows what he's doing and he's good at it.
1
@EvaKrywecka You forgot to mention that the pro-Russian Yanukovych got ousted by his own government at the same time that Russia was invading Crimea to steal it from Ukraine. You belong on the frontline.
