Trump is 100% correct in his assessment of the situation in Ukraine. We have been fighting a proxy war with Russia for a year and a half, and it's time for us to say enough is enough. Until we say, "Enough is enough" and demand an end to this nonsense, no one is going to come to the table and negotiate. We've been wasting billions and billions of dollars, and we're going to keep doing it until we say "enough is enough." Where does it end? Where does the blank check stop? When does it stop? And what happens when the money stops flowing to Ukraine? What happens when we run out of supplies and equipment to keep the war going? And when does it finally run out? And how long will it last? I'll tell you what, it's not going to end until we stop sending more money to Ukraine, because we've been doing it for a long time, and that's when it's going to run out. We need to end this war, and maybe we can get a competent person in place that understands negotiation and can actually make peace with the situation there. But if we don't do that, then we'll never get a chance to solve this problem. But you'll have to wait for someone who actually understands negotiation, will be able to make a deal and gets us out of this mess. But that's what we need to do it, not just talk about it, we have to get a deal, we need someone who understands how to make peace and compromise and get us back on the table, we'll have a chance at a fair chance to actually get a fair shot at a deal. But we're not getting a deal! Thank you for listening to this episode. I hope you enjoy it! - Tom and I'll see you soon. - Timestamps: 1:00 - What do you think of this? 2:00 3:30 - How much money is enough? 4:15 - What would you like it? 5:15 6:00 Is it possible? 7:00 What's next? 8:00 How do you want us to do? 9:00 Can we have a better deal? 11:00 Do you have a plan? 12:00 Does it work? 13:30 15:00 Let me know your thoughts? 16:40 17:30 Is this deal better?
00:00:16.000He's talking about Ukraine, where the United States just sent over, I guess, a bunch of Abrams tanks, not Stacey Abrams, so we're clear, but Abrams tanks to Ukraine.
00:00:29.000I then saw on social media, literally a few hours later, well, that's wonderful, but we'd also like some F-16s or F-15, I think it was F-16s.
00:00:37.000So now they want tanks, then they want fighter planes.
00:00:41.000And at what point does Russia say, hey, you know what?
00:00:44.000Now that we're at war with the United States, essentially, now we've been in a proxy war for basically, you know, a year at this point.
00:02:04.000I mean, I don't think they're winning. It seems like, you know, the news will say, you know, every time Russia makes the gains, it's not really a significant strategic victory.
00:02:11.000Every time Ukraine makes some sort of gain, it's very significant.
00:02:20.000Everyone thought this thing would be over in two weeks.
00:02:22.000But we're sending billions upon billions upon billions of dollars there to keep this thing going.
00:02:27.000And as long as they're doing that, and I imagine as long as people are grifting off of this and making their billions and stealing whatever it is, You know, we see the Taliban now selling our vehicles that we left there of the billions in equipment there to Russia so they can use it against Ukraine, who we're supporting in this proxy war.
00:02:54.000And if we had competent people in government, it could happen.
00:02:57.000If Trump was there, this would have never happened to begin with.
00:03:00.000But since he's not, maybe you want to bring in someone who actually understands negotiation, someone who actually understands how to do these things, someone who actually stopped or didn't have Russia invade, unlike all the prior presidents and Joe Biden, you know, their neighboring nations.
00:03:15.000You know, why don't we bring that back?
00:03:17.000And maybe we can end this nonsense once and for all.
00:03:20.000Unfortunately, we're led by incompetence, so it won't happen.
