Yes. He also said he’d end the Ukraine war on day 1 among other promises. This might explain your incredulity towards his actions. And Musk is worse.SeattleGriz wrote: ↑Sat Feb 22, 2025 9:45 amDid that fucker say that?![]()

Yeah, Ukraine been going since 2014, so it'll take some time to undo the damage, but it'll get done. Way better than throwing body after body at battle, when the only reason it keeps going is for the money people are skimming.kalm wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2025 7:45 amYes.

Re: Who are your heroes?
No serious negotiations occur without one of the two combatants present. This is an attempted gift to Putin. We’ll see if Europe rises to the occasion but Ukraine likely isn’t giving up their land and natural resources because Trump and Putin are friends.SeattleGriz wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2025 8:50 amYeah, Ukraine been going since 2014, so it'll take some time to undo the damage, but it'll get done.

Re: Who are your heroes?
Fascinating historical comparison on how empires lose their invincibility.
https://open.substack.com/pub/bandyxlee ... dium=email
I have been thinking of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. It is a battle where the Barbarians beat a well-trained, highly-organized, and established Roman army, with extreme ramifications, because the latter did not bother to learn about the forest.
In 9 B.C.E., half of Rome’s Western army was ambushed in the dense, fog-drenched forest of Germania. Some 20,000 men, under Roman General Publius Varus, were wiped out by an army of Germanic tribes under the leadership of Arminius. Previously, no other battle had so stopped the Roman Empire in its tracks. That even the mightiest Empire could be defeated, if it were led into unfamiliar territory, is a metaphor for our time—and that unfamiliar territory in our day is the disordered mind.
In the years leading up to the Battle, the Roman Empire had been expanding rapidly under Emperor Augustus. At the turn of the Common Era, Rome was continuing its expansion, having successfully conquered large parts of Europe, including modern-day France and parts of Britain. However, the forested, rugged Germania east of the Rhine remained largely wild, yet-unknown territory….
Today, we are living through the onslaught of an Empire that has begun not because of war or conquest, but through trickery and deception. This deception has led us into voluntarily entering the forest, without any concept or estimation of what it entails. We are discovering that, despite our advanced civilization and information technology, we are utterly helpless when it comes to the unfamiliar terrain of the disordered mind. We have allowed into our ranks a wrecking ball for national security and global stability—as the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the chief of Naval Operations, the vice chief of staff of the Air Force, and the U.S. Coast Guard commandant, not to mention the military’s most senior legal advisers, are all eliminated, at once. This follows soon after “the Friday Night Massacre” at the FBI, with no doubt many more to come. Complacency, overconfidence, and lack of preparedness got us here, but treacherous will be the struggle to get us out.

I had to retire young due to end stage liver disease. I have not applied for early social security or even state disability which I paid into after 30 years in the golf business.
But yes…the wife and I are thankfully in good shape financially for various reasons including working our asses off. Success is often a combination of being born as a middle class white kid in the late great United States, hard work, and many lucky brakes.
Why do you hate hard working, successful people whose taxes support your standard of living?
Fucking ingrate.

If only Biden and people like you would have allowed peace when Russia proposed it before the SMO had to be started.
