liberal talking points with no basis in reality.

Ukraine should be spelled Vietnam II

Agreed.  The simple solution is for Russia (and soon China) to stop getting them started.  But once started, what are we supposed to do?  Appeasement doesn't seem to work: Let's give them Ukraine and then they'll stop.  Let's give them Taiwan and then they'll stop.  Honestly, I don't know the solution.

  The solution is easy.  Stop trying to be the world police and the world supplier of free money.   Stop meddling in other countries politics.  Stop trying "regime change" as a policy.

 Also show strength in the world, not weakness.   If we do go in to a conflict, go in with brute force and a plan to win.  And don't rebuild the mess.

We are in the midst of a revolution and a government overthrow.   They are using the same tactics done before in other countries.  The panic is ramping up due to a fear they may not succeed in stealing another election.   That's why it's getting crazier.

Makes me wonder if they are just satisfied to play second fiddle and cash in.

Exactly.  Go along to get along and get payed off to keep your mouth shut and actions ineffective at best.  Trump is their only nemesis.  Both parties hate him as he will upset the apple cart of corruption and bribery,

Yes she did unfortunately. I don't understand the political inemntnest and misunderstanding optics in our warped world. She's allowing the Uniparty to win.

That’s what republicans do.  They’ve never learned to fight back.

Is there anything the left doesn't ruin when they get involved?

Back in the mid '80 I was reading the Ayn Rand books.  I mentioned them to some of the leftist feminists I worked with as a rebuttal to some of their absurd views.  To my astonishment (see what I did there), they all said they LOVED Ayn Rand.  To this day, that surprises me because almost all of her views were diametrically opposed to those leftists.

They justified it by saying that she was a "strong woman".  But if they thought it through,and they admired her, then they would NOT take the views on society that they did.

There was borderline rape and the “strong woman” loved it.  Lol, leftist feminists.  Although back in the 80s they weren’t like the ones today, who will sue you into oblivion if you try to ask them for sex.

Feminist in the 80s:  I can be a strong woman and still appreciate an even stronger man.

Feminist today:  We don’t need no stinkin man.

The problem with leftist feminists or leftists in general is they don’t understand basic economics. They’ve been indoctrinated to believe in a system of parasitism enforced by authoritarianism. That’s all leftism is: An economic system based on parasitism. A non-leftist understands that voluntary transactions and profit motive in the context of a truly free market result in the highest productivity and richest economy.

As far as I can tell, the biggest problem with a rich free market economy is that it allows people to become so comfortable and complacent that they forget where it all comes from and fail to guard their founding principles, allowing future generations (by taking over education) to be targeted by leftists who then undermine the whole system and here we are.
