  1.  @haveagoodone5830  LOL! I undestand your flight. To say that Putin's threats to 'retaliate' with nuclear weapons is not a first strike is, well, typically Russian. Thank you for clarifying your CONTEXT.

  2.  @haveagoodone5830  Putin is not threatening mere retaliation; nor is it mere escalation - though both specific actions would be an act of war under international law. What he threatens is first use of nukes. That is a quantum difference from retaliation or escalation, which is the CONTEXT you explained earlier. F-16s are not the nuclear trigger; Putin's finger is.

  3. Bush Sr was from the generation that fought WW2; the last president to do so. Those next 6, those Narcissistic Six (yeah, let's make it sound like a criminal gang) were from which generation? We have no one left from that great generation to make the argument that "tyrants bad". So. Here we go again.

  11. Being Governor has no relationship to being a competent President. Of the 21 Presidents who had some state or territorial executive authority, there are 6 in each of the top 3 quartiles of presidential rankings. There are 3 in the bottom quartile, which only implies executive experience minimizes the chance they aren't a complete failure.

  13. You're right. They have absolutely no problem with South Korea arming Ukraine or Poland. Of course, Putin did invade Ukraine to lock NATO out of Eastern Europe. That worked well.

  15.  @asdasdasddgdgdfgdg  Nothing is absolutely certain until it is in the past. As described in the video, the point is Macron wins either way.

  16. The rhetoric, and actions, from Putin suggests he doesn't agree that the West abandoned Ukraine.

  17. Uncontrolled implies .... no controls. Every European country controls how many immigrants they let in. You do know they regularly deny entry, and deport those who do get in?

  21. @ Nope. They are saying it is irrelevant. That is a renunciation, not a change of topic.

  23.  @matt291  Sorry, sport. You are twisting the metaphor and your interpretation collapses of its own weight. A democracy cannot function with just a single team. What Hegseth et al brings, though, isn't a democracy, so at least that is consistent.

  24. It is false to assert independents decide elections. Saying 90 percent of the outliers always votes for the same party is not precisely true; it is not the SAME 90%. And to imply that 'true' independents vote as a unified block is just irrational. For example, the 'independents' did not elect Reagan; long-standing but disaffected Democrats did (being disaffected is not the same as being an Independent). Same with Trump in 2016. And Kennedy won on the strength of new voters; again, that is not what an Independent is.

  25. And your not trump, though you keep trying.

  26.  @thomasb.anderson8113  There are two groups who watch Zeihan: those who are here for the analysis, and those who are upset that Zeihan has said negative things about the current president-elect. The first group knows who Zeihan is and that the analysis provided comes from his company and those who work for him.

  27. Didn't you predict T in `20? And the "big red wave of '22 that left world class surfers asking, "where? where? did I miss it?"

  29.  @chillxxx241  China didn't carve anything. Putin gave it to him. Russia is now a vassal of China.

  36.  @antoniomilone5472  Nope. That number is a gross exaggeration of reality. Even more so than the amount of support the US prez claims we have given Ukraine.

  37. @ Nope. That is more than the total world GDP. If that was true, 1989 would have been very different.

  38. That was the intent of NATO from the start. America provides a nuclear umbrella and Europe forsakes nukes.

  39. Comparing China with NK and Russia with US. That's funny.

  43.  @Coover90210  Wow. A lot to unpack, most not worth my time. If you want to sink your money into a currency with no intrinsic value, please do. Fiat, btw, has intrinsic value. That is why the ruble and yuan have little value compared to any western currency, especially the US dollar.
