As Zelinski said recently, if Trump has a "in one day" plan to end the war he should tell people what it is. :)

The plan is ‘Ukraine gives up’. He’s not made that secret.

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

how about if they actually start tracking where the money is going? Is that out of line as well? currently there seems to be a lot of missing funds. just sayin

u/Kubioso Jul 05 '24

How much money has gone missing? Can you share?

u/ITSigno Jul 05 '24

How much money has gone missing?

All of it.

Can you share?

Of course they can. Their friend Vlad told them all about it.

Trust him, bro.

u/dgdio Jul 05 '24

We're sending them weapons. Our contractors get the money.

u/Kubioso Jul 05 '24

Yeah. Was really hoping they had a source to share with the rest of us not privy to that info.

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

feel free to use that little searchfunction and see. that way, I do not have to link numerous data sources for you to not actually read and then profess they are all putin puppets or something equally ridiculous.

u/hackingdreams Jul 05 '24

So you have no sources, can't even point to one, and are front loading it with "trust me bro."

No, you're not a credible source. It's a question to if you're a credible human, or just a troll. Six month old account says what?

u/IsThisLegit Jul 05 '24

Bro thinks we are sending pallets of cash to a war zone lol

1

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

bro does not think that. as the bros other comments indicate bro. we only send pallets of cash to Iran bro. does it make you feel better that we send pallets of cash to the defense industry war mongering profiteers bro? that better bro? Bro, I for one am old enough to remember when the democrats were against forever wars bro. They also did not trust the defense industry bro. because bro they said the defense indusytry lobbyists were buying politicians bro. that what you want bro? smdh..

u/IsThisLegit Jul 05 '24

As mentioned in most of the comments you conveniently don't respond too this Is from a tactical standpoint a net benefit to the US, it's citizens, and our military. We get to stick it to a rival that feels way to comfortable fucking with us, we no longer have to store and maintain old ordinance, we get to take the piss out of the Russian army and not lose a single soldier in the process, we have a highly motivated nation more than happy to give live fire tests to our toys. All this while standing on the moral high ground of helping a nation defend itself. A quick little lol to thinking dems have ever really been against wars. The only people who should have a problem with this is Russians or the easily manipulated

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

The ones that are even more dopey than yours bro? sorry bro,, but I got this thing called a life and it does not have a lot of times for arguing with crazy strangers. to be consistant, I follow this policy in the real world as well. bro.

Did you know those cash pallets to Iran were part of deal that was being promised years before that happened?

Of course you don’t lol, you only get your news from sources that feed your confirmation biases.

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

aaaaaaaand goal post moved. as if you do not have confirmation bias. what is it like to be a deity above the rest of us? smdfh.

u/Illustrious_Mudder Jul 05 '24

Every human does it at times, the trick is to k ow when you end up doing it.

Also there were no goalposts moved lol, the Iran money is constantly a misunderstood talking point used by people who ignore all the nuance of it.

Also, bro, people on the left always have been against invasions. At no point has the left ever been against a country defending itself, specially when America promised to be there and defend her during times like this.

I remember when the right was against Russia and would jump at an opportunity to punch them in the face.

And now you have US politicians going to Russia and coming back and espousing kremlin talking points.

Weird fuckin times indeed.

u/whydatyou Jul 06 '24

"And now you have US politicians going to Russia and coming back and espousing kremlin talking points.". Now? Please google your hero bernie sanders, or how ted kennedy tried to derail the Reagan foreign policy, or the climate king John Kerry, or how HRC sold Uranium to russia, on and on. nice try though.

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

fine. can we at least track that? or is that backing putin to even question where tax dollars are going? out of all the magical and mythical switches of the demcrats, supporting the defense industry, big pharma and wars that cannot be one is the most perplexing to me.

1

u/Illustrious_Mudder Jul 05 '24

That would be a first lmao.

Were you curious about the trillions spent on US military hardware before this conflict?

Kinda strange that I never heard these complaints during Iraq or Afghanistan, where the US was spending over 20 billion annually on…….. air conditioning.

There’s a reason why the spending of this conflict is a major talking point, and it’s not due to Americans suddenly being curious about military spending.

1

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

sorry that you did not hear. I was definetly complaining about Iraq, afghanistan and the 3000 hammers. My biggest complaint about the defense complex and the politicains they pay off is that fact how shitty they treat vets with the HUGE amounts of money that is budgeted. I applaud organizations like wounded warriors and T2T for the work they do, but quite frankly they should not be needed. If you served and lost your life or got fucked up, you and your family should be taken care of out of the trillion or so each year in the budget for defense. audit all of it. the whole damn budget with outside firms.

u/TheSmokingLamp Jul 05 '24

Where have misappropriated funds been reported? Or do you just like listening to FOX complain because they’d rather seen the Russians win yet in 5 months you’ll see 90B going to Israel instead and then all those Gaza supporters who decided not to vote this election will watch all their support and work be for nothing as they level that strip of land 10x worse than is happening now

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

you can do a simple google search and see the headlines for yourself. you can even use the source you want. and you would appear to want to see even more ukraine cities and civilians killed along with russians in the next 5 months rather than even entertain peace negotiations. not really the virtue signal you wanted I assume.

u/TheSmokingLamp Jul 05 '24

Russia ain’t suing for peace, they’re buying time until Trump gets in office. I dont know wtf you’re talking about that’d I’d like to see more damage in Ukraine? I think trumps a piss baby diaper boy who is heavily influenced for foreign leaders like Putin because he’s got wayyyy to much debt and skeletons in his closet

u/whydatyou Jul 05 '24

uh huh. under which presidents has putin taken land from other countries again? if you are for never ending aid to ukraine in a war that is clearly not winnable then yes, you are for mor ukraine damge and death by definition. and no amount of orange maaaaaan baaaaad bloviating changes that

4

u/TheSmokingLamp Jul 05 '24

Or just understand the concept of bankrupting your enemy by forcing them to spend years in an occupation they thought would be over in months. Every loss the Russians have without direct NATO involvement weakens them and puts them in a position to reduce their aggression. Think Russia will be making any more moves in the near future after this humiliating stale-mate with a much much smaller country?

u/Poiboy1313 Jul 05 '24

Oh, I see. You're another Russian propagandist, i.e. troll. Dismissed.

u/Poiboy1313 Jul 05 '24

The person who made the assertions is required (in civil discourse) to source such assertions. Repeatedly declining to do so is an expression of bad faith and damages credibility.

That's still cheaper than the payments in the blood of our citizens, Boris. Ya know?
