Biden has done an extremely good job at working with our allies to produce a united front against Russia. As a consequence, Russia will suffer severe economic pain for Putin's actions.
Trump would have done the opposite and allowed Putin to do whatever he wants, probably invading other NATO nations. Basically, if Trump were president, NATO would crumble and America would be in much deeper economic and military trouble.
Thank God we have Biden as president right now.
Wut?????? Nobody and I mean nobody is praising Biden's foreign policy except for his immediate family and the LR libidiots.

Trump armed Ukraine and sanctioned Russia. First thing Biden did as president was lift the sanction on Nord Stream 2 to show how nice he is to Putin.
Facts is facts
When the sanction on Nord Stream 2 was lifted, it made sense. Back then, it was believed that a closer economic tie between Russia and Germany would reduce the chance that Russia would invade Ukraine. And it also made Germany happy. It would be easy enough to reverse the decision at any time, which is what happened.
But that kind of defeats the narrative that Biden is waging a war on fossil fuels, doesn't it?
Biden has not been the climate hawk we need. But his handling of the current Ukraine situation has been outstanding so far.
You look really bad saying that. No conservatives are rooting for Putin. We want peace in the world. Quit saying crap like that.
Shall we roll the tape or do you want me to save you the embarrassment?
sally really has no idea who he rolls with.
he thinks the right wingers are the good guys, even after all the 'conservative' failure and crime and lies and election losses and cheering on Putin over Biden and obama birth certificates and Pizzagate and two impeachments and presidential felonies and all those trump staffers fired or prosecuted or quit under ethics clouds.
he's like Putin, trying to revive the Russian empire. Or Trump, trying to 'make america great again.' A profound misunderstanding of the world and who the right wingers are.
No doubt Putin will send in cops to crack open their heads. Russian internet is not censored (yet) - maybe seeing Russian men and women getting beat up and dragged off by cops will get the anti-putin forces in russia to build.
From what I understand, they like how putin keeps the trains running on time but no one thought he'd be so irrational as to start a land war in Asia. Or remove the nation from the world, trade-wise. There were mass anti-kremlin protests a few years ago...would be amazing to see those come back. Again, russians do have the internet and can plan that way.
What a dreamy solution that would be...putin gets pushed out, put on a flight to Cuba, the Russian military pulls back from Ukraine.

But yeah low odds.
Yeah, I think you are dreaming.
But it's true that the Russian people are Ukraine's best hope. Sanctions will help with that but I'm afraid it won't be enough.

The tapes of Biden and Obama saying Russia wasn't a thread? The tapes of left wingers past and present blaming "imperialist" America for everything?
Vladimir Putin is ultimately responsible for whatever horror he unleashes. But save some outrage for those Western governments who chose to make war inevitable by refusing to compromise. https://t.co/XUBpWY2uwS
Jacobin. Popular. Good lord man have some self respect and at least try to tell the truth. it feels really good to tell the truth. Try it.
Anyway, solid thread here detailing the 'conservative' Trumpists cheering on and complimenting Putin. It's all right there. Pompeo, Owens, Farage, Vance, Trump. And one 'Democrat,' Gabbard. Leaves out all the Fox 'conservatives' caught in Vlad's thrall.
THREAD: CPAC is hosting a lot of speakers who have expressed pro-Putin sentiments. This is who they think represents them. (1/9)

But that's not what is happening on the far right. Many of them are singing Putin's praises, including a certain former president.
He called Putin smart. Which Biden has also done.
He claimed this wouldn't have happened while he was President. Which we can't prove, but the history so far proves it so.
He said Putin's actions were genius and maybe we should do the same thing on our own southern border.
This was praise of Putin at a time when Ukrainians were on the brink of slaughter. This was praise of Putin's actions as well. There is no defense for that.
