DISGUSTING. Putin is dancing in the streets.
PUTIN is our enemy, NOT UKRAINE,
Trump says Z is gambling with WW3.
The entire WORLD except the Russian alliance is aghast at this display of a thug Trump has shown himself to be to EVERYONE on the planet and OF COURSE it is Russia who wins this display of the disgust we all felt.
Anyone who sides with Trump now is allied with Russia and we know here at RHP who those people will be.
@sonhouse saidWe, Canada, will step up and take over as the “de facto” saviour of the Free World, as the incumbent, USA, has dropped the ball by seemingly siding with the Russians. Shame on you.😡😲

@Great-Big-Stees saidI concur Stees and just wish there was much more we could do!!!! We can help some for sure, and do have a trained military. Even some Transgender's that would love to kick some Butt. 😉

I was embarrassed for the President of the Ukraine who will go home to a hero's welcome for standing up to those two bullies Trump and Vance, love to see them in a uniform or any kind of physical battle. Well Trump is too old, already dodged the draft in his younger years saying he had bone spurs. Vance is too soft just a big mouth. I guess I gave it away they are not my favorite people!!!

@sonhouse saidYou know what is disgusting? Morons like you who like to talk without understanding the real issue. This is a war that has been going on for over 3 years. THREE YEARS of death and destruction, financed by NATO and the US to fight an opponent that cannot lose unless you actually join forces and attack with full force, which is not going to happen.

You fools are playing with death. This war needs to END, and it makes no difference how it ends, and what kinds of language Trump choose to use. The loser is Ukraine. Here is a full breakdown of the cost of this stupid war so far:
**************************************
From Perplexity: Q : What is the full cost of this Ukraine war so far ?
A : Estimating the full cost of the Ukraine war involves considering both the direct economic impacts and the broader societal and humanitarian effects. Here's a breakdown of the key components:
Economic Costs
Ukraine's Reconstruction Costs: The latest estimate for Ukraine's reconstruction and recovery is approximately $524 billion, as reported by the World Bank, the United Nations, the European Commission, and the Ukrainian government139. This figure reflects the extensive damage to infrastructure, housing, energy, and other sectors.
Direct Damage in Ukraine: The direct damage has reached $176 billion, up from $152 billion previously3.
Russia's Military and Economic Costs: Russia's military costs were estimated at $40 billion by September 2022, with potential direct military spending reaching $132 billion through 20244. Additionally, Russia's GDP losses in 2022 were between $81 billion and $104 billion4. The war has also led to significant financial capital destruction and blocked reserves24.
Humanitarian and Societal Costs
Humanitarian Needs: Over 14.6 million Ukrainians are in need of humanitarian assistance, including 3.7 million internally displaced persons2.
Casualties and Displacement: The war has resulted in tens of thousands of casualties and widespread displacement2.
Infrastructure Destruction: Over 1.5 million homes have been destroyed, and there have been thousands of attacks on education and healthcare facilities2.
Overall Cost
The overall cost of the war is difficult to quantify precisely due to ongoing hostilities and the complex nature of economic and humanitarian impacts. However, it includes:
Economic Costs: Over $524 billion for Ukraine's reconstruction and significant losses for Russia.
Humanitarian Costs: Extensive displacement, casualties, and destruction of critical infrastructure.
Long-term Impacts: Potential long-term economic decline in Russia and challenges in rebuilding Ukraine's economy and social fabric.
In summary, while the economic costs are substantial, the full cost of the war also encompasses profound humanitarian and societal impacts that will continue to affect both countries for years to come.
@sonhouse saidZelensky is an idiot. He is like a beggar demanding money like it is an entitlement. Let the UK give weapons to the beggar and we will see if the British like giving their money to the beggar.

Watch the video. Zelensky acts like he doesn't need weapons charity from the USA anymore. He is as dumb as a box of rocks.
@Very-Rusty saidThe beggar wants weapons to remain free and those demanding he pay for them is a bully? LOL!
I concur Stees and just wish there was much more we could do!!!! We can help some for sure, and do have a trained military. Even some Transgender's that would love to kick some Butt. 😉

When Zelensky goes home his people will ask "Are you an idiot? We are not going to fight a losing war because you want perpetual charity to fight a war you could have prevented".
You propaganda parrots are forgetting Trump has veto power over spending in Ukraine. And all of that money of our given to Ukraine has benefited us how? You don't even have an answer. Not one that makes any sense anyway.
Russia is going to take over the whole world if we don't stop him in Ukraine. That is the propaganda you have been duped by. Remember when ISIS was going to take over the whole world? Try thinking for yourself. Russia cannot even take Ukraine, let alone all of Europe. One minute you are boasting about how Russia's economy is not even in the top 5 and the next Russia is going to invade all of Europe.
China has the second largest economy in the world. Shouldn't you be concerned about them?

What you're missing is that, THREE YEARS after Russia launched its invasion, Ukraine is still standing. It was thought it wouldn't last 6 months.
MAGA morons clearly learned nothing in history class.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Agreement
The Munich Agreement was an agreement reached in Munich on 30 September 1938, by Nazi Germany, the United Kingdom, the French Republic, and Fascist Italy. The agreement provided for the German annexation of part of Czechoslovakia called the Sudetenland, where more than three million people, mainly ethnic Germans, lived. The pact is also known in some areas as the Munich Betrayal (Czech: Mnichovská zrada; Slovak: Mníchovská zrada), because of a previous 1924 alliance agreement and a 1925 military pact between France and the Czechoslovak Republic.
@Earl-of-Trumps saidAll Trump did was point out he held the cards and not the war monger.
@sonhouse
for once I can say you are right. Trump has no tact. (bipolar?)
Zelensky demanded the welfare continue. I thought you hated welfare.
You seem to like welfare to the military industrial complex. Why is that?
@Very-Rusty saidDespite all of the rhetoric from the war lovers like you I don't see any of you claiming Ukraine can win the war. Not one person on this forum will claim Ukraine can get back the territory they have lost to Russia, yet you support throwing money at Ukraine to fight a losing war.
I concur Stees and just wish there was much more we could do!!!! We can help some for sure, and do have a trained military. Even some Transgender's that would love to kick some Butt. 😉

Why do you want to throw money at a losing war? What is the goal?
@Metal-Brain saidKeep your Putin talking points to yourself, We KNOW who the bullies are and it is NOT Zelenskyy.

Go to Russia, you will be welcomed as a hero.
@Rajk999 saidIt is MORONS like you who fall in line with Trump and Putin and BTW Russia is dancing in the street over this disgusting display of thuggery by Trump and Vance.

This turns our entire stance on end, Russia is our friend, Europeans are enemies.
Putin say gets 30% of Ukraine and Trump thinks that is the end of it.
It is fuuking HISTORY that appeasement NEVER works to stop a dictator hell bent on rebuilding his former empire.
This will just be another road to Putin's NEXT attack, maybe Poland, or Moldovia, one of the Baltics, Putin WILL attack there and invoke NATO to defend them.
There was only one use of NATO defending another country in all of its history and that was THE USA after the 9-11 attacks. I was there helping radio communications so saw the operation up close. Trump would NEVER have something like that, US helping another NATO country because he IS a dictator in his own mind
@Metal-Brain saidTrump talked PUTIN talking points. Which OF COURSE you love, You are not an American, you are a Russian agent.
All Trump did was point out he held the cards and not the war monger.
