So Ukraine went into Russia - after 3 years of all the fighting being in Ukraine.
So what is “the other way”? Russia invading Ukraine? Buuuut… Or Ukraine going into Poland? Or Russia going into Mongolia? Is that the other way? What the hell is he gibbering about?
But good heavens, we better nip all these incursions in the bud before something bad happens!
And know how to spell “potatoe”.
While they unironically fly their Confederate flag.
I thought the point was that they didn’t want to say “democracy” because it has the word “democrat” in it. Instead, they get to say America is for Republicans because it’s a republic.
The sadly amusing thing is listening to some of the followers try to spout the rep. talking point without knowing the details.
“You don’t really want a democracy, those are bad because bad things happen.” Erm, what?
“You guys are in danger with the kind of weaponry that we have but I felt it was important. And this kind of stuff they put to shield us, I’m going make you feel not so good”
“We’re going to end up not having a country. You’re not going to have any media, we don’t have media, they don’t have media. They do their own media, they don’t need media”
“We had drug climbers, they could get over a wall in— it’s so incredible with 75 pounds of drugs on their back, they could climb up things”
Ukraine counterattacking into Russia is deeply, deeply troubling to my sponsor, the Lord Palpatine Putin. So you can expect Putin to attack NATO or at least the West somehow in response. Or for Belarus or somebody to open yet another front against the side I hope to be President of. That would be bad (for me) because I exist only to serve my Lord Putin. And that’s harder to do when there’s lots of headlines that as US President I’m not fighting the USA’s enemy very hard.
Seems extremely obvious to me; I really wonder about all you folks who often can’t understand what trump means most of the time.
I listen to NPR when I’m in the car, and I have to drive to court regularly as part of my job.
Today I heard NPR giving a midday news report. It included political news, naturally. They referenced the DNC, and played a snippet of Walz’s speech. Then the reporter said something about Trump campaigning, and then played his sound bite
They offered no further commentary.
It was truly beautiful, and it’d be refreshing if all of the news organizations reported him this way.
Because I truly do believe that Trump has devolved into just being a ranty old man, who has no ideas or plan to govern, but is happy to whine and complain about everything and anything. He isn’t even capable of discussing policy.
(He reminds me of my Uncle’s uncle, who I’d see as a kid. “Uncle Leo”. Picture an old man from New York, with bad hearing and hair sticking out of his nose. He had an opinion about everything, and that opinion was usually ‘they have no idea what they’re doing!’ My mom used to call he and his wife “The Bickersons”)
If you can’t read, keeping details straight is hard, since the only way to reinforce them in your memory is to talk w somebody knowledgeable. Not one of idjit trump’s habits.
Yeah, I was playing up the vaguery of what he was saying. It is so vague, perhaps deliberately so, but it leads to gibberish.
I mean, Russia already invaded Ukraine, and still had troops there. Sending in more soldiers doesn’t strike me as an incursion. That’s reinforcement, not a new entry. But if e go with the idea that “the other way” means Putin will respond with more troops to Ukraine, then saying bad things so happen is kinda dumb - bad things have already happened.
So maybe he’s suggesting Putin will invade Poland or some other NATO country. Then yeah, no shit bad things will happen.
Ah, but maybe he’s trying to suggest Putin would use nukes. That’s just about as sure a way there is to ensure (a) Putin loses power, when the world is blown back to preondustrial age; or (b) Putin dies, because he will most certainly be a target of heavy bombardment. And if he survives all that, there are likely to be some seriously pissed off Russians who want a word with him.
Or maybe he has a different idea. Imcursion the other way could mean “the US will incur on Ukraine once I’m president.”
“When Canada sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re bringing poutine. They’re bringing Timbits. They’re hockey fans. And some, I assume, are good people.”
