Only the flat earth, Q-anon trumpians believe in the kind magic that would give Mike Lyndell a seat at the White House dinner table. The Dumb and Dumber comedians are still arguing about the last election. they really should worry about the next election. That's where the GOP self-destructs and ceases to exist.
Russia has pushed the world to the brink of World War III. No one, including Vladimir Putin, thought that the NATO coalition could come together to oppose Russian intervention in Ukraine and support democracy wherever it is in the world. Joe Biden has been the catalyst in re-building a broken NATO coalition of countries and has brought together 35 countries who have levied sanctions on Russian goods; air travel; gas and oil exports, and financial benefits of Putin and the Russian Oligarchs. A united response will be a long-term benefit for every democracy in the world. There is no place for Russian terrorism. There is no place for a brutal dictator. Democracy is the only way to beat dictatorships!
Support for Ukraine has been solid among the European, American and Asian democracies. New Zealand, for some reason, is not complying with its obligation as a 21st century democracy. Talking a good line, but the Adern government has been slow to provide any military support and given only lip service to supporting sanctions.
"Jacinda Ardern's government was quick to condemn Russia's unprovoked military attack on Ukraine, but has been slow to levy sanctions on Russian leaders and oligarchs for their role in the invasion."
It's time to put pressure on all democratically elected leaders to join the NATO coalition and safeguard democracy from a brutal takeover of Ukraine by Vladimir Putin and the Russian military.
I hate to be redundant - Is New Zealand going to doing anything? Or will you just claim that you are a western country and benefit from the sacrifices of the United States? Hypocrite!
What 'facts'? It's an article about the GOP fighting among itself for control of the truth. The party of Trump, Q-Anon and misinformation is about to self-destruct. Stand back - you don't want to get any Trump on your clothes when it blows up.

Your love of Putin has no bounds. When did you turn in your passport?
I like how you used 'proof' in italics. You know it's not proof - there is no 'proof' of fraud, over voting, anyone voting more than once, illegals voting or aliens voting. You keep talking about 'proof' - provide that 'proof' or shut up about it. Biden won. Get over it.
Russia is not the largest export of fossil fuels. Never has been - and because of Biden and NATO - will never be a major exporter.
The USA gets about 200,000 barrels of oil from Russia - actually about 3% of the yearly usage. A drop in the bucket - so to speak.
Europe gets about 40% of its natural gas from Russia - significant, but not impossible to replace.
China gets about 18% or 900,000 barrels of oil per year from Russia. They also get about 32 million tons of coal - also significant. China gets most of its coal from North Korea.
NATO is not threatening to Russia. Russia and Putin have used the opportunity to invade Ukraine on the premise that NATO is a threat. Laughable!
Anyway Raddy - you need to some research before you spout off. The world has decided that Putin will pay for his faulty decision to annex Ukraine.
Once again you Commies fail to understand the Capitalist free market economy. The US government does not buy oil, or toilet paper, or canned goods, or any other product on the free market. You see, if you understood how things work - you would actually sound like the 'brilliant' leader Vladimir Putin, who you so admire. But - when you are stuck in ignorance - you just simply look foolish!
Your buddy Putin is having a difficult time feeding his own people because of Biden's coalition of countries who support Ukraine. I guess New Zealand supports the overthrow of democratic nations. You need to spend some time criticizing your own government - or maybe - you support the brutal killing of Ukrainians!?
You mean the Orange Guy saying Putin's invasion of Ukraine was 'brilliant'? Yeah - we all know where you stand! Your head is squarely positioned - be sure to wipe your face when your done.
Are you stupid? Oh sorry - stupid question. Biden put together a NATO coalition that has supported Ukraine every step of the way. Are you suggesting an American invasion? That would be insane. I guess from your safe hovel in Kiwiland - you can throw stones at the rest of the world and feel at ease.
Oh...should I use happy emoji's and post my recipe for sugar-coated raisin burgers? Nahhhh! It's so much more fun making you squirm.
Let's talk about Marjorie Taylor Greene and her penchant for white supremacists. I could do a whole book about the wacko right wing GOP majority. Where do I start?
No sense of history! The last balanced federal budget was under Bill Clinton. GW Bush rapidly put the country in peril by botching 9/11 and tanking the economy. You forgot about the housing crises of 2008-2009. Obama corrected the train wreck and created the longest running economic recovery in history.... ..which the Orange guy promptly dismantled. The US was unprepared for the Covid crisis. The medical support system that Orange man dismantled - caused the economic crash of March of 2020. Oil sold for $0 and the stock market dropped by 50%. Unemployment rose to 25%. Did you already forget the disaster reaction that the GOP has made of denying a world wide pandemic???? Biden has righted the ship - the stock market is booming; the Pandemic is nearly over; employers cannot find enough people to fill that are paying bonuses and giving raises. In spite of the Russian invasion of Ukraine - Biden has managed to coordinate a coalition of 33 countries to sanction and condemn Russia by stopping trade; freezing financial funds in world banks; and building support for a democratic Ukraine. We are all safer with Joe Biden in charge. I have no doubt that the Orange Useful Idiot would have assisted Putin in taking Ukraine - just like he did to assist Syria when he turned his back on the Kurds. You may know how to read - you don't know what reading history means. The world is at stake and thank God Joe Biden knows his history. Sorry - your ignorance is a problem. Correct it!
What kind of troll farm idiocy is this? Only a Russian tool would agree that Russia deserves credit and respect. Unprovoked attacks on a neighboring nation is criminal. Putin and his leadership cadre will be held on war crimes and disgraced on the world stage. You, I am afraid, are a captive of your own ignorance. Your thinking is what has brought the world to war. Allow a criminal to govern a nation and this is the result. Trump and Putin and criminal buddies who will share the same cell.
I would expect nothing less than from a Russian troll like yourself. Not the sharpest tack in the box, ConMan has a reputation of ignorance to uphold - go get em tiger!
Right Wing media has been praising the laurels of Russia and Vladimir Putin for some time now. Fox's Tucker Carlson has urged the USA to leave NATO because most nations do not pay their fair share. The right has now blamed Biden for the Russian invasion of Ukraine - claiming he is weak and Putin is emboldened to move because he knew that Biden was unable to do anything rapidly.
The Putin lovers like Carlson have actually give Putin the help he needed to turn the GOP against any sensible response to the expansion of Russian forces. All Living former presidents have condemned Puting - except the last president - who praised Putin for his 'brilliant' move into the independent regions of Ukraine.
Biden has been building a coalition of countries - which now number 31 - mostly NATO pact members - who are solidly unified in their support of Ukraine and the independent nations formally of the Soviet Union. We have been down this road before. How quickly Republicans have forgotten that Ronald Reagan was firmly steadfast in his hatred for the Russian regime and warned of the Russian Bear moving against our friends in Europe. Let's remember the lessons of WW2 which saw German military forces taking Poland in 1938, after minor moves in taking parts of Czechoslovakia. NATO is and will be the only resistance to Putin's moves toward rebuilding the old Soviet regime.
Who is next for Putin? As Ukrainians leave for Poland and Romania - will Putin then push to take countries like Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia? Will he be satisfied with Donetsk and Luhansk? What should the role of the rest of the world be to prevent another 'Poland 1938'?
The USA can not stand idly by - Biden has been right in building a partnership of unified democratic nations objecting with economic sanctions and financial blocks on the Oligarchs. It will not be enough to stop the Russian expansion. Americans have an obligation to support democracy under attack where ever that is. At the moment - democracy is under attack here at home as Republican support for Putin remains strong - which is puzzling. If Democrats are the only sensible adults defending democracy when it is attacked - what good are the Republicans!?
