Why is Trump being silent about ATACMS

But he takes no steps to counter the Biden narrative, one wonders if behind closed door his advisers are actually supporting Biden's decision, perhaps they aren't all that anti war after all...that's what silence suggests...
They won't support it for the purposes of escalating the war. If they do quietly support it, it would be for the purposes of ensuring the negotiation will be conducted between two parties who are more on par with each other in terms of risk than the current scenario suggests.

Let's not forget, that Russia escalated this first when they employed 10s of thousands of N Korean soldiers.
 
Who can stop him from holding a press conference and stating in no uncertain terms that he strongly disapproves of Biden's escalation and will be reversing it promptly on Jan 20? Is Trump shy? No, is Trump weak in front of the press? No.
Trump will do what he wants when he wants. You expect a lot from someone you said would never win the election.

They made that decision right after long range ATACMS were secretly sent to Ukraine in April this year, which was an escalation by the West. Russia feared these might be used to target Russian soil and lo and behold they were right about that, it happened this morning.
 
What do you know about Trump? You assholes have underestimated him for 9 fucking years. I do not see anything that you have to say the least bit important.
Nobody has underestimated trump. Trump has benefitted from having enough money to play the legal system.
 
Biden has just escalated the war against Russia by approving long range use. As this could lead to a escalation and drag the US into a war with Russia, why is Trump - the anti war President - not making a public statement condemning Biden's move and making it clear he will reverse this and other decisions and stop support for Ukraine?

It's not like Trump let someone else own the narrative, yet right here, that's what he's doing. allowing Biden to won the narrative...the question is why? what signals does that send to Europe, Ukraine and Russia? to me it sends one signal - he's not actually concerned abut US war with Russia and has nothing to say about Biden's decision yesterday.
Because he doesn't want to show Putin his hand until he is president and has the power to do what he says he will do...

Come on now. If this were true, Putin would have openly screamed it to the world.

He was making comments while running for office.
 
It would be unethical for the incoming potus to comment on these things. If he did, you would be whining that he was undercutting the sitting occupant of the WH. LOL, try agai
To describe taking a stance against war as unethical tells me all I need to know about your insanity.
 
Before Biden escalated things last week...
It is not escalation to attack the country that is attacking you. This should have been done from the beginning.

Trump is on record numerous times as opposing this conflict in its entirety. He will take care of it in two months.
 
Ritter has pretty well got everything right so far.
As mutually agreed upon limitations to the war are discarded, the other side will do the same. Hopefully this won't be the escalation that causes Russia to attack civilians and the civilian infrastructure.
The Ukraine has been degraded to a point at which it has no effective defense.

It's wrong to blame Biden for this escalation when it's obviously the decision of the US military in the Pentagon. That position of the military won't change when Trump takes over and so that leaves the question on how Trump can be brought over to being onside with the war? It's either that or the Pentagon will need to eliminate Trump's interference.

Trump won't resist because that would be hazardous to his health.

He isn't the potus, moron. Take it up with the guy who pushed the escalation--You know, the vegetable that you've defended religiously for the past four years. How'd that work out for you?
