Putin’s ‘long term investment’ in Trump is about to pay off:
Even though Trump has not yet won a second term in office, writes Rachman, he has already inspired Republicans in Congress to block further military aid to Ukraine, which is deeply hurting its ability to defend itself against Russian aggression.
In particular, Rachman takes a critical eye toward Trump’s decision to sabotage a bipartisan deal that delivered funding for Ukraine, Israel, and that made significant changes to America’s immigration laws.
All of this, he argues, is part of Trump’s calculation that he can retake the White House by denying Biden any wins.
“If the freedom of Ukraine and the security of Europe are collateral damage in Trump’s bid to win back the White House, the former president seems to regard that as a price worth paying,” he writes.
Rachman also argues that Russian President Vladimir Putin made a “long-term investment” in Trump when he interfered in the 2016 presidential election with the goal of propelling him to the White House in hopes that he would cause ruptures among allied Western nations.
“Putin has made a long-term bet on Trump,” he concludes. “Unless there is a last-minute change of heart in Congress, that wager may finally pay out — on the battlefields of Ukraine.”
74,000,000, there’s the ol’ idea of it’s one thing to recognize problems, but do you bring solutions. Y’all seem to be solidifying into just problem seers, which is just one step from whiners. Do y’all all want to be just whiners?:
If this cartoon means bipartisan solutions….. are supposed to start on the left of pities,YOU MUST BE JOKING!!!The only reason the left calls their approach bipartisan is that they refuse to believe, listen to or think about ANY viewpoint that is not at least 100% in accordance with their viewpoint.Mind you there are definitely some morons on the right as well but the left has the gold medal sewn up tight

Far too many RWers continue to ignore reality … They seemingly prefer to listen to what confirms their ignorance.

Let the Mueller report be re-written, but with Trump not excluded due to his immunity.
