Donald Trump continues to suck up to the Russian president.
If Ukraine were to suddenly surrender to Russia, everything would be “much better,” at least according to Donald Trump.
During an afternoon press conference Wednesday, the Republican presidential nominee urged the Eastern European nation to submit to the foreign power, claiming that any deal, no matter how dismal for Ukraine’s freedom, would have been better than the current state of affairs.
“Ukraine is gone. It’s not Ukraine anymore. You can never replace those cities and towns, and you can never replace the dead people, so many dead people,” Trump said. “Any deal, even the worst deal, would have been better than what we have right now.

And you’ll get the worse one.
So you’ll happily vote for Trump if he’s running against someone worse? I feel like eventually you have to draw a line somewhere
Honestly it’s not a bad point, but it’s also not reflective or a great comparison since it’s not really grounded in reality. I’d vote for the person not willing “fix” america in favour of white supremacy.
For these getting bombed to death reality is already as bad as it can be. Both red and blue have innocents blood in their hands and are evil.
It’s not worse for me as a brown individual. That damage is already done.
It’s worse for MLK’s white moderates because they can’t ignore the issues the rest of us have been suffering our whole lives.
I’ll choose justice over order and principle over comfort. It’s the only way forward.
I feel like you’re implying that being made aware of injustice is a worse position to be in than actually suffering from those same injustices, and that has to be the stupidest thing I’ve read in a while.
Somehow reaching that conclusion is one of the stupidest thing I’ve read in awhile.
When the majority were aware of injustice we sang in the streets, “Fuck Donald Trump and fuck Biden, too! Neither of them give a fuck about you!”
That’s was an incredibly good thing. The trade unions were paying attention. Now is our time. A few years later the US has more strikes than we’ve seen since between the world wars.
Seems you’re not paying attention to We the People. That’s a critical mistake.
All sizzle, no steak. 🥱
Fair and That’s probably what will be happening. Many of us are probably not coming out the otherside in that case.
Effective means of societal change always have collateral damage. It’s especially true in the current paradigm. But, the more that choose meaningful change and proactively sacrifice for it, the less the collateral damage.
That’s why there’s a homeless man living in my shed. Without need to seek out shelter, water, food, and clothing he learned to use a computer/internet in a week and has now secured several job interviews. If he fucked up or someone fucked him over he can come back. He’ll probably be one that makes it to the “other side”.
I don’t think I’m special. These are basic human responses to the situation that exists. Government won’t help. We must help each other. Seems simple enough to me.
