He just insists on that stupid black mark on his soul. Jesus Christ, Joe.

Just an observation, I hope Ukraine can make it through all this, but when this war started news was non stop how Russia was falling on their face and losing thousands of troops and equipment.
Now that trump won news is non stop Ukraine is losing ground and will fall without aid.
This is why Americans are so disillusioned with all this. The propaganda machine can’t stick to a narrative and makes people feel like everything is fake. The media in this country is so fucked and a big reason why people are so uninformed.
That is no accident. The propaganda machine is perfectly tuned. Even where it appear crude and let us believe that we see through it.
Okay real talk? The Russians were falling on their face. Unfortunately they have the manpower and material to learn on the job. And that's exactly what they've been doing. The big Russian gains recently also came during the 9 month drought the GOP inflicted on Ukraine's weapons shipments.
So now there's a situation where Ukrainian recruitment is down, Ukrainian manpower on the front line is below optimal, the Russians have re-learned how to actually do an assault, and the Russians have recently resupplied and reinforced via North Korea.
The situation did legitimately change.
They were. In the early parts of the war. They've learned and adapted and currently outpace Ukrainians in arms, men, and doctrine.
