There is no nice way to say this. If you reside in this country and you are voicing your

support for Putin and your hope that he invades Ukraine and humiliates NATO and President Biden, do NOT call yourself an either an "American" or a "patriot".

You are traitorous scum and you should expect to be treated as the disgusting bottom-feeder you are. You would not enjoy my reaction should you spew this sewage in my presence.

I don't see that happening. The brains and sanity are on the liberal's side. There was a line in a Rambo film (I don't know the line, just the gist) where the military guy tells Rambo he can use their best weapons, and Rambo just says "no thanks, my best weapon is my mind."

These imbeciles happily consume bleach, horse dewormer and drink their own urine, choosing to die on ventilators rather than be vaccinated. Southern neo-confederates proudly wave the Stars and Bars, violently assault Congress and demand secession from the US. Anti-democracy fascists are passing laws to suppress the vote. Trump's "very fine people" march carrying tiki torches and nazi symbols, chanting"blood and soil" and "Jews will not replace us." Of course these traitors will support Putin.

We have the executive who is the commander in chief. We have both houses of the legislature (narrowly). Voters chose Democrats because we are the compassionate voice of reason and the grownups in the room compared to the Rethugs. Its time President Biden showed Americans what they voted for. We as a nation are sick of wars and Americans will begrudge another one. Time to find a solution that doesn't involve enriching the defense industry. That's why Democrats were chosen to lead this country.

We are living in the most consequential time this nation has ever known. Bent laws and the lack of moral fiber from people like McConnell seem to have punctured the balance of unbridled Capitalism's coexistence with our democracy.

Throw in the monetization of disinformation, the rights desire for a "Strong man" and you see how it basically doomed us to this fight of our life. .

Before talking ourselves into ANOTHER war, perhaps we should all take a deep breath. Whatever Biden does going forward, does it benefit the American working class or defense contractors? As the adults in the room compared to the Rethugs, we need to ask those questions before we start saber rattling.
