  3. My opinion is that Kellogg was a "place holder" for trump. The idea being to project the image of reason and fairness, until the time came for someone suiting trump's agenda to be placed in that role. Kellogg has now been side-lined.

  4. I believe that you are quite correct in your brief summation and have supported your comment.

  5. I am the same age. Two years ago, I cautiously ventured into the field of US politics. I am Australian, living in Australia. It was through my interest and concern for Ukraine, and through Jake Broe's level-headed and clear discussions, that I became interested and aware of the political situation and developments in the US. Jake has certainly made a significant contribution to my knowledge of the US political situation. There is so much more I have to learn. Thanks, Jake. I recognise, acknowledge, agree with and have supported your comment, Carmen

  6. Unfortunately, the likelihood of invasion by a nuclear armed neighbouring country is increased by the development of nuclear arms. Such development and the potential implications, I believe, do not act as a detterent, but rather as a reason for invasion. We have seen ruZZia drawing so-called "red lines" supported by their presumed significant nuclear arsenal - said to be the largest in the world. However, even ruZZia's nuclear weapons have not deterred Ukraine from defending their own territory, even to the extent of occupying a part of ruZZian territory. Invasion of ruZZian territory was stated by ruZZia as the ultimate "red line". Yet, Ukraine has demonstrated it has not been effective as a deterrent to such invasion, as in the case of ruZZia. When an existential threat to the existence of a nation, such as Ukraine, is faced, nothing is an effective deterrent. What have they got to lose? In victory, they lose some for the whole. In defeat or capitulation, they lose everything. Had Ukraine retained the nuclear weapons, I believe that ruZZia would have been likely to have attacked sooner, in order to gain or recover control of those weapons. It is also likely, given ruZZia's attacks on civilian infrastructure and people, that they would have had no hesitation in fighting a quicker, hotter WAR against Ukraine that would have resulted in the quicker defeat of Ukraine. Because the WAR has become attritional, I believe Ukraine has a significant chance of victory, albeit with incredible losses. But those sacrifices would be in the cause of the retention of Ukrainian sovereignty.

  10. It has been observed that, for the most part, in the US political structure, the left is considerably closer to the center than the current right wing establishment.

  16. Agreed and supported.

  17. I agree with and have supported your comment. There are nearly 60 countries still assisting and supporting Ukraine. Individually, many of those countries are very small, but collectively, they have massive strength.

  18. Anyone saying, "Kamala Harris or Trump. We chose lesser of two evils." is obviously cynical and, or, oblivious to the harm that is currently being perpetrated in America and against other countries. You hardly have to or need to include the statement, "BTW I am Republican."

  20. I acknowledge the thoughts and ideas about which you have written. For the most part, I agree with and have supported your comment. However, we can choose to lose hope, curl up and withdraw, or we can continue to pursue the goals and objectives in which we believe. We were all fairly certain of a particular outcome of the election. About 50% of us were wrong on that one important point and issue. That does not preclude positive outcomes in other areas of consideration. If we did not hold any views that may ultimately be challenged by discourse or outcomes, none of us would be actively involved in the political events of the day. While some of our battles may end in defeat, do we simply withdraw and capitulate, or do we continue defending and fighting the continuing WAR, in support of the values and principles in which we believe.

  21. I certainly believe that there is nothing irrational about Jake's views on trump, musk, vance and the rest of their political cohort. Jake provides an intelligent, qualified and informed assessment of each of these individuals and their roles in the current US political situation and possible directions.

  22. Absolutely agree with and have supported your comment. Trump has already stated that he could shoot someone in broad daylight, and he would get away with it.

  24. I do not believe it is that simple.

  25. Most of what you have written is absolute bulls**t, straight out of the "MAGA" manifesto. In any case, none of what you have detailed, even if it were true, in any way justifies the selections of operators and actions in the present political situation and the current "leadership".

  26. Presumably, you are saying that the answer to the question, "Why is Trump Being Hostile Towards NATO?" is that NATO does not revolve around or act in a "pure Trump" fashion. I agree with and have supported your comment on that basis.

  27. Yet, still within living memory, or, at least, the stories of the last generation or two, we know of two world wars that led to massive loss of life and material devastation. No, "it was not like this before the internet." In some ways, it was much worse. And indeed, there were many other wars fought, of which we knew little or nothing. Vietnam was the first war in which it was said that the populations of the Free World had daily access to journalistic comment and pictures of what was happening. It was that reporting that led to a great deal of resistance to continuation of the war in Vietnam.
