Is this another "the war will be over in 2-3 months" because it really feels like another :rofl:

Calling people clowns doesn't make your fantasies anymore of a reality. Try exercising to lower your angst levels guy.

Imagine having to dodge so hard all you can do is come up with an old quote that's easily explained, the West bought Ukraine time.

Imagine saying another Russian offensive is the biggest joke you ever heard and learning that 500K troops are amassed right now.

Imagine you shit on Russia when you hear Russian govt debt to GDP ratio is only 13.4% when you come from a country recently ruined by Liz Truss who showed you limey clowns have no clue when it comes to finance :rofl:

And now you elected a billionaire kleptocrat LMAO :lol:

You do alot of imagining, is it less painful than reality?

Keep banging the drum though, maybe the Kremlin will send you a washing machine.

Imagine that, usa not paying its military. Just like russia.

Fyi- the national debt rose 7.8 trillion while trump was potus. Suddenly the gop won't raise the debt.....

I'm sure these newly trained 500k troops will do a much better job than the first 500k troops that russia used.

Most likely yes.

And you dodged, I commented on the US govt terrible financial situation and the need to constantly raise the debt ceiling.

Edit: Ohhhh so it's all Trump's fault

Got it

I didn't dodge. In fact I agreed with you when I commented America has had debt since the revolutionary war.
Only difference, you are trying to imply suddenly America will collapse.

You are right, it is the Republicans fault if the debt is not raised.

Glad you finally understand.

You should cut the crap, US govt debt is a fact. There's literally nothing "dishonest" about mentioning US govt debt in a topic that's making fun of a single Russian carrier while it's obvious Russia never pursued more carriers (they built nuclear subs instead) and Russia's govt debt to GDP ration is like 1/10th that of the US'. You should get to grips with reality.

The US carrier fleet is basically borrowed, the US army and govt require such huge budgets that the US can't even stop piling up more debt let alone pay it back.

The Admiral Kuznetsov class was planned to have 5 ships, and the Soviets had laid the keel for the second one and was more than 60% completed when the USSR collapsed, and the 2nd carrier was eventually sold to China (now called the Liaoning). Don't pretend like they didn't want a seat at the big boy's table.

Again, paying for the equipment by issuing debt vs paying for it outright is a matter of fiscal priorities, not national security or foreign policy priorities.

This is the EXACT same logic the Putin stooges use saying it's Ukraine's fault the Russians "have to act this way." And I didn't actually blame Russia for our stupid infatuation with world policing. I just wondered what the world would be like without Russia being a bunch of worthless assholes.

If Russia is an asshole then the US is an even bigger one. USA has been involved in more wars than Russia has.

For sure they messed up in Iraq 2 20 years ago. Now good luck doing comparisons with Ukraine invasion.

we can certainly agree that both are massive assholes. the fact of the matter, however, is that CURRENTLY it's russia that is invading a sovereign country and slaughtering innocent civilians to enlarge its empire, while the US are FINALLY withdrawing from their disastrous middle eastern campaigns.

are you at least a principled appeaser, and when the US / china start their next war, will you then go back and point fingers at russia, or do you only use silly whataboutisms to downplay pootin's imperialism?
