    All these sanctions Sleepy Joe is threatening towards Russia, what if Putin sees that as an attack and makes good on his threats of Nuclear retaliation towards the West. How stiff is Sleepy Joes spine, because I think he'd flop around like a Jellyfish if Putin stares him down. This is going to get very interesting and the world is going to see if The United States is looked upon as the land of the free anymore. I don't think Putin is going to succumb to any of these threats.

    LOL no... At his age a death sentence isn't really a detterent anymore. The moment Putin flick the switch, the rest of the world will too.

    What would you like Biden to do? Every time I talk to a rightwinger these days, they bounce back and forth between saying that Biden is weak for not doing anything . . . and then saying Biden shouldn't do anything.

    So Biden should do nothing ?

    The entire world is going to economically sanction Russia for this move. His economy is already on the brink. Starve them and they will stop.

    What is it exactly you want to have happen? The only way this could have been prevented was stationing US troops in Ukraine. Which was never going to happen. So what do you want Biden to do?

    What a crock of crap. Putin is full of it. If he lets a weapon like that loose the world will make Russia infrastructure disappear.

    Putin and Xi don't have any respect for Biden, he's looked upon as an imbecile and a wimp. Basically a couple of Bullies that figure it's a good time to steal our Lunch money

    For all of Biden's faults, he's tougher against Russia than Trump ever was. Not that this would have taken much. But I can't help but notice that you were incapable of answering my question (just as you will be now): what would you like Biden to do?

    That's what they said about Japan, and then they attacked Hawaii.

    Do you think we should send our troops to defend the Ukraine?

    People were saying that Japan was on the brink of economic ruin just before Pearl Harbor?

    You'd think a former KGB thug who is reigniting the Cold War would be familiar with the concept of Mutually Assured Destruction....:roll:

    He really isn't, and that's precisely why Putin is turning Biden into his personal hand puppet right now.

    Sanctions: Scary!

    The world has no idea if Putin is simply crazy or something much worse. And the world knows that the United States has never been weaker than right now.

    Trump excused Putin's invasion of Crimea. Trump tried repeatedly to reduce any and all sanctions on Putin. The ONLY change to the GOP platform that Trump's campaign requested was to go easy on him over Crimea. He really is. Hell, if all Biden did was publicly criticize Putin, he'd have done more than Trump.

    Sanctions probably won't be enough. But it's still a stronger approach than we had in the last administration.

    You are right! Sleepy Joe should say to President Putin:
    “Please, don’t threaten us, American people are so scared. Please take Ukraine, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia and more. We will even return you Alaska, only stop threaten us”.
    You sound like a real Patriotic American!

    You mean that time when Russia invaded Ukraine when Trump was President? Hmmm...Again, not sure you quite have a grasp on history.

    Nonresponsive. Try again. This time read the post before "responding." And to help catch you up, I'll repeat:

    Trump excused Putin's invasion of Crimea. Trump tried repeatedly to reduce any and all sanctions on Putin. The ONLY change to the GOP platform that Trump's campaign requested was to go easy on him over Crimea. He really is. Hell, if all Biden did was publicly criticize Putin, he'd have done more than Trump.

    This is the second time Putin has invaded Ukraine under Biden's watch - first as Obama's hand-selected foreign policy "expert" and now as Cuck-in-Chief.

    I also seem to recall how the administration he was previously part of went sucking up to Putin with its little plastic "reset" buttons because they blamed Mean Man Bush for Putin's hostility towards the U.S., then scuttled Bush's missile defense program in Eastern Europe because it upset Putin, then went running to him after the Top Goon in Syria made a mockery of their "red lines", and refused to sell Ukraine lethal weaponry when Congress gave them the green light to do so. Then there's Biden's refusal last year to send two DDGs into the Black Sea on a routine deployment because it might upset Putin.

    Biden has never been tougher on Putin than anyone, and that's precisely why Russian tanks are currently rolling through Ukraine again.

    And it's not like anybody never saw this coming after Biden's cowardly and disgraceful withdrawal from Afghanistan. Many predicted his feeble-mindedness and weakness would embolden our enemies and adversaries abroad, and not only has Putin predictably waltzed his T-90s into Ukraine, the ChiComs predictably sent a record number of sorties into Taiwan's airspace and are suggesting they might pull the trigger on an invasion of the island.

    I could go on, but there's no need to flog the point to the bone and sinew.....:deadhorse:
