Nice deflection attempt, douche. It’s a very strong take. Probably the strongest take.
90% of Republican politicians? You mean the guys YOU have been claiming are corrupt pieces of crap for years? The guys you detest? Those guys? Are their opinions valid and moral and ethical now?
The facts remain:
1) Experts have predicted that US policy in the region would produce this exact outcome for years.
2) Liberal progressives are now firmly behind the military industrial complex (in one of the greatest psy ops ever perpetrated on the US population).
A fact is not a deflection attempt. You lead such an isolated life that you are unaware that 90% of people on the right support Ukraine.
I have not claimed Republican politicians are corrupt pieces of crap, nor do I detest them, douche. You must be mistaking me for a liberal of some kind.
The facts remain, and are confirmed by you post:
1. You believe the United States is incapable of doing good in the world, and historically has been a force for evil worldwide.
2. You believe everything that happens in the world is the direct result or responsibility of the United States.
Why do you hate America?
Neither of those things are facts, nor were confirmed by anything I said. You’re being dishonest by over-generalizing and over-assuming.
The US can certainly do good in the world, and has done a lot over the years.
But perpetually growing their influence on the other side of the globe via post-Cold War NATO expansion isn’t one of them. Why do you think they’re doing it? Do you believe they’re trying to “spread democracy”? LOL
Use your brain. Why do we want to continue to expand our influence in the region? Think really hard.
What we see today is that Trumpism eliminated the need to follow polls (public opinion). Instead, Trumpism is about screaming the loudest and flooding the media with the firehose of lies until they move on to the next issue. Then you get the gullible media to focus on your issues: Grievance politics and race baiting dog whistles. (Immigration, BLM, Woke, CRT etc, etc). When you flood the zone with lies, nobody will remember your positions on Russia at election time. Or you just lie about it.
Yep. It's no surprise that their favorite method, firehosing, originated with Lenin, was mastered by Putin, and was used on America by Trump.
These dopes blather on about the evils of "MSM" while they consume endless amounts of Tucker, Rogan, Bongino, Shapiro, etc. That's their idea of independant thought.

yep. But every election that have this little inconvenience that most of the country rejects their form of rulership. And it gets worse and worse as old white fox News watching males become a smaller percentage of the population. That's OK. On the state level that have a plan to make sure voting is very difficult for any groups that are not white males. This too is a mirror of Russia's "free and fair election" strategies.
what a war this is. look at this. Staged, sure. but amazing stuff.
Blown up russian equipment, fire, Ukrainian troops after fierce battle,... and in walks a Ukrainian girl with a Kalashnikov, no helmet, no bullet proof vest, sunglasses, who is fighting with the battalion.pic.twitter.com/XV8P3bZF8Y

Rhetorical questions are a very weak way of arguing. They usually are an indication that the poster can't articulate their own position (or don't even know what their position i supposed to be), and instead want to pretend the answer they don't know is both obvious, yet dark and ominous.
You should tell us what YOU believe is the reason that "we want to continue to expand our influence in the region." Think real hard because if, as I suspect, its some mush of words involving terms like MSM, Deep State, etc. it won't be a reason, but rather an identification of the behind the scenes masterminds of the alleged conspiracy.
(In any case, 90% of Americans, including conservatives are supporting Ukraine against America's enemy Russia. Again, you are living a very isolated life, if that is not your perception).

What exactly do you think happens when NATO "expands"? Do you think NATO is forcibly taking over territory? It's almost like your side doesn't think sovereign nations don't have the agency to form defense alliances. These are free and independent nations choosing to join an alliance, and you view that as bad American behavior. How very RT of you.

the problem that Putin has with NATO is not that he fears aggressive attack. Instead, his problem is those free and independent nations you mention used to be under Soviet Control and with NATO he loses his ability to subjugate them and bring them into the fold again. He also can't have thriving former Soviet Union countries making his Authoritarian rule look as bad as it is.

Russia doesn't see it that way... Why is this so confusing for you?
If Mexico and Canada freely turned communist and invited China in to set up missile batteries there would be stealth bombers dropping bombs almost immediately.
reports of two russian officers being fragged by their own troops. Fog of war, who knows if true, but I have to think as losses add up, it will be harder and harder for russian officers to motivate troops to go into danger. Some will be killed/wounded by their own soldiers, no doubt.

Russia is behaving exactly like the US behaves.
so sweet that Adult believes Putin.
Sort of like Bush2 and Trump believed and trusted Putin. So cute!

Maybe Putin should look in the mirror and question why none of his neighbors like him?

You live in a bubble. There is a very large chunk of the world that doesn't have such a glowing opinion of the US that we do.
Regardless, just like I don't give a rat's Pelosi what Mexico or Canada think of the USA Russians don't care what their neighbors think either.

I corrected your first sentence for you.
And just because YOU don't care what Canada or Mexico think, doesn't mean most Americans don't. America has a great relationship (politically, economically, militarily) with Canada, and a good one with Mexico. Neither of those countries has any fear that we are going to bomb one of their theaters with children in it.

It's kinda funny, too, because the "think real hard" question is perfect for why, mainly, all of those former Soviet republics and satellites have wanted to join NATO since '91 ???
Drum roll, please.......because they're freakin' scared of Russia !!!
But the morans try to turn it around and pretend that NATO expansion isn't mainly Russia's fault, but indeed a legitimate grievance of their dictator.

Russia has attacked like 3 countries in the last 40 years. The US has overthrown 4 governments in the last 20 years and bombed dozens of countries...
And no one cares what Mexico thinks they are run by drug lords.
