Can Putin rebuild the Iron Curtain?

[Robert W]

Putin clearly wants to rebuild the Iron Curtain. Can he be stopped?
Well we have Ukraine busy doing the heavy lifting to stop him.
I like our country better as it helps Ukraine beat up Russia. I am not calling for US Troops. But we have far better weapons than Russia has and we must help Ukraine beat Putin silly. Ignore Putin's threats as he is far weaker than he wants us all to realize. Ask Trump to hurry up beating Putin up. Biden slow walked his help to Putin. We do not want Americans there fighting. If we lack the guts to help Ukraine later our troops will definitely be directly involved. Who wants Putin beaten back?

Finally I am old enough to remember that Hitler took over countries as FDR sat on his ass. Must we repeat the mistakes made by FDR?

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Yes, Putin wants the old Russian empire.

FDR sat on his ass because the country was 90% isolationist.

Context, little buddy.

I agree. His gang is far more organized this time.

I suppose you mean the FDR gangs. It makes sense if we have Nazis, we have FDR gangs too.

Your dementia is acting up, Bob.

I see no indication that Putin wants anything of the kind, he just does not want NATO on his doorstep.

That said I'm sure he won't mind taking half of Lesser Russia though.

I must be honest about this given I never talk to Putin. He tries to make it about NATO. But Ukraine is not part of NATO nor was Crimea. The man is a bullshit artist by my reckoning.

Better question: does he really want to rebuild the Iron Curtain?

 

[Robert W]

Better question: does he really want to rebuild the Iron Curtain?

Why is that better?

 

[Oddball]

Why is that better?

Because whether he can or not is entirely dependent on whether that would be his objective.

DUH!

you sir are ignorant and clearly have not done your homework being taken in by what the corporate controlled media has told you.

I don't care if Trump does it and gets all the glory. If he can force Putin to back down, I'm all for it. It's about results, not about hating any one man.

That's why I admire Zelenskyy for sucking up to Trump now. He knows that flattery works.

 

[theHawk]

why would Putin need to build a wall?

Last I checked men were trying to flee Ukraine, and are being stopped at the border and forced into conscription. Maybe Zelensky needs to build an iron curtain to keep his citizens in. Word is they are sick of being ruled by a dictator that cancelled elections and is forcing them to fight a war against Russia for land that has historically been Russia for centuries.

Especially now that President Trump has suspended aid to Ukraine. Things are going to get dicey!

Of course you admire a man who banned opposition media, cancelled elections, and stayed in office after his term expired, and still wants to continue a war no one wants to fight in.

You Stalinists are great.

Nope, no proof of that. The OP just imagines it so it must be true.

 

[mamooth]

Of course you admire a man

So why are Putin's buttbois so triggered?

They're finding out that Trump never really cared about supporting communism, the way that they do. Trump cared bigly about Russian money, but Trump is getting so much money from crypto scams and other graft, he doesn't really need the Russian cash. Trump cares mainly about being seen as a hero, and he won't achieve that status by dropping trou for Putin like hawk does.
