I think a fair chunk of his supporters are of the ‘Russia was right to invade to protect themselves/remove the Nazis’ cohort, so he could end the war by withdrawing US support (which would cascade through the rest of NATO eventually), and the war would end, to much cheering from those folks. ---

One of the reasons that I think Putin made this horrific mess was he thought Trump would get re-elected and NATO would basically stand back and watch. Putin went ahead anyway, the ball was already rolling. Putin, Trumps puppet master and BFF 🙄 would just direct Trump what to do, or not do. ---

But, yes, the last Presidential candidate that I remember claiming to have a secret plan to end the war was: 1. Full of shit. The war continued well into his second term. 2. Widely regarded as the worst President since at least Andrew Jackson. 3. Nevertheless, a statesman . . . compared to Trump ---

Does sharp as a marble count as insanity? Is there a low IQ defense? Insanity is a bit different than being just plain stupid and completely uninformed I would hope. ---
