Re: Quiet today with Turmoil happening in this World
Posted by KarenK122
I really dislike when people start comparing past presidents. No president was great but this is falling on us (as well as the multitude of other issues) during the Biden administration. He and his democrats are in charge so it falls on them, end of story. I don't care what happened 4 years ago or 20 years ago. This is now and he needs to manage the situation.
In all honesty I would have voted for Biden when Trump won if he ran. He is too old now and has lost his spark and control he had years ago. Biden was the wrong choice but since half the country was so hell bent on getting Trump out of office that we allowed someone not fit for the job take the reigns. People need to wake up and we need to start getting candidates that can do the job at hand and stop voting for people, just because they are not someone else.
But do you think trump was fit?
Personally, I don’t think any were fit but we were witnessing Trump in action. Pretty much inciting a civil war. We were forced to pick the lesser of the two evils and I still stand by Biden was the lesser. I also don’t think we should be comparing presidents right now. I’m honestly confused as to why people are saying Trump is the answer. I think anyone who is a die hard Biden or Trump supporter are ridiculous and need to stfu. Honestly. The people of Ukraine don’t care about our ****** ass presidents right now and this debate. They are fearing for their lives.

Re: Quiet today with Turmoil happening in this World
This is why it was quiet.. there was nothing really discussed on this thread that was healthy or informative to the crisis that is happening. Just a pissing match of who’s right and which crappy president would be better in office.
News flash folks, none of them. Stop gloating if you voted for Trump and stop gloating if you voted for Biden. They both suck.

ITA with all of this.
It's really horrific what is happening over there, so many innocent people stuck in the crossfire. I hope a resolution can be found before things get even worse. Scary times.

Good IG post shared by one of my closest friends who was born in Kyiv into Soviet oppression and escaped 30 years ago with their family.

Re: Quiet today with Turmoil happening in this World
It is horrific and sad. It’s so sad that I am seeing all over my IG & FB feed talking about Trump and Biden. Stunting on who is right, instead of focusing on the real issue and discussing the crisis. It’s pathetic.
And if we really want to discuss our government than we should talk about the two party system and how to get better people to run (as posted by previous folks on here). There is a reason why we have crappy candidates to pick from. Let’s look at the root cause instead of fighting over nonsense.

After Trump was in office for a while, no I don't think he was fit either. He did not have the diplomacy that was needed to be President nor the attitude. As I said, I would have voted for Biden the first time around instead of Trump the first time around and I am a full die hard republican. I do not think Trump is a republican and he brought out an extreme side that has been dormant for a while. There has been no good candidates the past few elections. I don't know if there even are any good candidates but that also goes to show the inadequacies of our congress as well. It should be a check and balance not a vote down party lines.

I agree. I will say after Trump won, I was like ehh its not so bad but then I felt like he was slowly becoming unhinged as his presidency went on.
I voted for Hillary the first time around. I do wonder what would have happened if she won. Not saying she would have been amazing but would it have been more stable. Maybe we would've had a stronger Republican candidate during re-election? Who knows, I am sure we would still be in the same mess.

Trump repeatedly dismissed Russian hacking. Trump capitalized on Russian meddling in 2016. Trump denied Russian interference in 2016. Trump undermined Russian sanctions. Trump was open to lifting sanctions. Trump would never say Putin was a killer. Trump tried to return spy bases to Russia. Trump gave Russia classified intel. Trump repeatedly attacked NATO Trump had to be forced into signing new Russian sanctions. Trump pushed for a joint cyber security unit with Russia. Trump thanked Putin for expelling US diplomats from Russia.
Trump eased sanctions on Putin’s top oligarchs.
Trump congratulated Putin on his sham election. Trump tried to rescind sanctions on Russia for poisoning a defector.
Trump blocked a US statement condemning Russia’s invasion of Georgia.

Some women have such an unhealthy and backwards idea of what makes a strong man. Treating women like sexual objects, being a misogynistic pig and talking about women as if they are "less than" doesn't make a man strong, it makes him weak and disgusting.
It's so odd that anyone would hold a "man" like Trump in such high regard, I guess the women who do must think very little of themselves. Personally, I expect way more for myself.
************************************** You are so right Hofstra.. Trump is far from a man, let alone a leader.
Zelensky is a true leader/ man . Given the choice to leave he says "'I need ammunition, not a ride'

Re: Quiet today with Turmoil happening in this World
Hopefully the SWIFT ban goes through and works (I am a bit behind today— I think it went through?). I’m not crazy about it because of the energy crisis here and Nord Stream 2, but it’s the right thing to shut this down quickly.
And it isn’t *the* Ukraine. It’s just Ukraine. They aren’t a member of the USSR anymore.
