Who Fights on Russia’s Side?

~ Clarissa

Thank you, Biden-Harris administration.

Now I want to hear once again why a Harris administration would be bad for Russia.

  1. Certainly not as bad a Vance-Trump one that wants to freeze the current line of control, like Ramaswamy likes to recite.

    1. You aren’t following what’s happening on the frontline right now, are you? Please Google Pokrovsk. Today people were evacuated, weeping because they didn’t want to abandon their pets. It’s heart-breaking. Look it up.

  2. This is definitely shameful and something that needs to be addressed. But I don’t understand why you’re blaming the Biden administration for this. It’s not like the shipments are leaving from US ports or airports. They are coming in from other countries like Turkey, which is not going to bend over backwards to US requests.

    1. The US companies that do this face no repercussions. And Ukraine still has no permission to strike Russian airbases. Every day they bomb peaceful cities, murder civilians. This wouldn’t happen if we didn’t let them get off the ground. Why not allow this? Two and a half years we’re begging for this. The war would have been over by now. Why can’t we destroy these bombers before they can go bomb civilians?

      2. “The US companies that do this face no repercussions.”

        This is very difficult to do in practice. Say Intel sells chips to a company in Indonesia, this company then sells to a third party that then send chips to Kazakhstan then on to Russia.

        I do agree that at the bare minimum we should be limiting anything going into Russian bordering states since that’s where things are getting through. That definitely needs to be worked on, but it’s not something Biden can do on his own. He’s not emperor of the world after all.

        I don’t think the Biden administration wants an outright Ukrainian victory because a sudden Russian collapse could look very ugly and Biden is a feeble man not willing to take big risks. However, I think there is a semblance of a strategy here, which is to keep Russia slowly bleeding in Ukraine until it cannot take it anymore; it would be more of a managed collapse than a sudden one.

        The economic factor is probably even more important than the missiles and the war gear factor. Russia will run out of cash to pay for this war, inflation is already bad and likely to get much worse, gas and oil prices are dropping and forecasted to remain slow throughout 2025, at some point their economy will break. I really don’t see Russia keeping this going for more than a few years.

        Don’t know if this is the right strategy, but that’s the strategy that I see and it’s still infinitely better than the Trump/Vance strategy which is to force Ukraine to negotiate right now and allow Russia to end this war on its terms, therefore prolonging or averting the economic collapse that is coming.

        1. I agree with your assessment of the situation. Unfortunately, the strategy of slowly bleeding Russia will end up destroying Ukraine first because it’s much smaller.

            1. “Waiting for Russia to implode from the inside is a waste of time”

              russia is not nearly politically developed enough to collapse or implode…. I think not enough people realize how much…. nothing there is in russian public life. Whether ‘human being on the street’ interviews or russian public figure interviews/speeches…. what comes across is a giant vacuum where things like ‘society’ or ‘social’ or ‘civic’ should be.

              It’s developmentally disabled (I mean that as literally as possible) and most russians dont’ seem capable of even the simplest forms of organization.

              Most westerners (esp those in government) don’t or can’t fathom this basic fact or fail to realize the implications…..

              1. Economic collapse doesn’t care about whether the members of that society are zombies. There just won’t be any more money to continue funding the war.

          2. This is probably why Biden doesn’t just come out and publish the “plan,” since it involves Ukraine continuing to pay with their blood for everybody’s benefit.

  3. These hot air declarations of “Trump’s Plan” so reminds me of Nancy Pelosi telling members of Congress that they must first pass the Obozo Health-Care bill before they could read it!!!!!
