Donald Trump, who was impeached by congress for revoking aid to Ukraine and then asking the Ukrainian president to dig up dirt on Joe Biden, says he can end the Ukraine war in a single day. He has yet to provide much of a concrete plan for this besides telling Putin, “If you don’t make a deal, we’re gonna give them a lot. We’re gonna give more than they ever got.”
Sounds like a continuation of what we are already doing. And if Trump is elected and he doesn’t immediately give Ukraine up to Russia, I am sure this is exactly what will happen. The proxy war will continue–perhaps it will even escalate as Trump tries even harder to hammer the same nail that Biden has been hammering for over a year now.
Donald is a politician just like any other. He thrives on national mood. That is why interest rates weren’t monitored when everyone was feeling good during the post 2008 recovery or the Covid eco-boom. You don’t fuck with the ship until it starts sinking. Why would Trump stop a production line that bolsters our own economy and stimulates our weapons manufacturing? His rhetoric about disliking war and killing will dissolve like mist.
