Trump addressing 250 top Republican donors in New Orleans on Mar 5. He suggests a clever strategy for the US:
Quote:
“And then we say, China did it, we didn’t do it, China did it, and then they start fighting with each other and we sit back and watch,” he said of labeling U.S. military planes with Chinese flags and bombing Russia, which was met with laughter from the crowd of donors, according to a recording of the speech obtained by The Washington Post.
I guess Trump's just an entertainer, too. Though I expect he was more or less serious, that is, as serious as he is able to get....

Trump is basically right. It's our well established Cold War strategy. Trump is on the Ukraine's side, not the Russian's. I read it in the Independent.

Did anyone else notice that while Trump was flippin' his bird at long established US CW policy while president, he didn't try to actually change it?

I'd be impressed if there was anything Bill "Low" Barr would prosecute Donny for. Lord knows there was plenty to choose from.

You're not required to believe it (and we're off-topic).

A Chinese attack is too much of a stretch.

We could, however, send in some cruise missiles with a semi-plausible storyline that they were donated by Chechnya. Revenge missiles.

Chechnya would be flattered, and enjoy the fireworks.

I'd probably vote for this guy if he runs against Hillary. Exercise my Illusion of Freedom.

I'm thinking Joe Biden will retire after this term.

If the Dems are feckless enough to run Hillary again, Pence would probably beat her. A lot of undecided would vote for him for beating Trump while at the same time keeping Hillary out. A two for one.

Unless tRump came out and endorsed Pence the conflicted Repub voters would probably stay home in protest. Don't forget that most of the ones who believe tRump was robbed blame Pence for not overturning the results. As far as the election it doesn't matter if a Dem wins the operatives the GOP has put in place will declare the Repub candidate the winner or at least have it thrown to the courts and let the courts declare the Repub candidate the winner.

Finally, Roger Marshall takes Ukraine’s side. Zelenskyy has long needed GOP courage

https://www.kansascity.com/opinion/e...259472219.html

Always amusing to watch Repubes shifting their stance with the political winds. Unlike Zelenskyy, these cowards have no courage.

Wiki snippet on this clown:

https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Roger_Marshall_(politician)

Quote:
On January 6, 2021, Marshall joined a group of Republican senators led by Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz in support of the objections to Pennsylvania's and Arizona's electoral votes, both of which were overwhelmingly rejected by the Senate, 92–7 and 93–6 respectively.
