2022-2024 Russo-Ukrainian War

Things to give is one thing, find people to fight is totally different. Russia will always outnumber Ukraine, by far. unless we want to nuke Russia, we can not help Ukraine win. If Ukraine continues to fight, in 2-3 years they will lose half. imo Zelensky is not winning this war. it is a shame, in April of 22 if could have been stopped and Ukraine would only lose cremia, and ldnr. and no NATO ambitions. now they lost much more, NATO is even farther now, and war is not showing any sighs to an end.
 
Well it's unlikely to be a shortage of 155. She'll production has been and is continuing to ramp up significantly in 25 and 26.
 
Ukraine Wears Down Russian Artillery, But Drone Threat Is Growing - Forbes.com

Headlines early on in the invasion warned about the sheer power of Russian artillery, with advances following massive ‘fire curtain’ barrages. Russian artillery was estimated outgun Ukrainian by a factor of ten, and President Zelensky repeatedly appealed to allies for more shells. The situation has changed, but as ‘Michael,’ Commander of the Typhoon drone unit of the National Guard of Ukraine, told me, the artillery has not gone away -- and drones are a growing threat.

I would suggest it's been a long (shallow) learning curve for Trump. He's finally comming to understand that despite all the faux comradery Putin displayed when Trump was running for office and then (for a while) afterwards he is only really interested in peace deal if it's on HIS terms.

Hopefully Trump is starting to realize he's being played and (being Trump) will now double down on Ukraines side and start delivering at least some of the long range fires they've been asking for.

Let's step back for a second and look at the American President and how he conducts trade, the economy, law, foreign relations, media, even war (we were bombing Yemen, unilaterally stopped and declared victory...while nothing changed). Tell me the difference between him and Putin as far as how they act (or really a few other foreign leaders, you can add Erdogan, Netanyahu, Modi to this list if you want). Over the past week Trump cleared out the board of the presidential appointees for the D.C. architecture review board or whatever, filled them with higher-level Trump officials which is a complete waste of their time for what is largely irrelevant minutiae, and they spent the whole time of their public comments railing on the waste expenditure renovating the Federal Reserve building because the administration's #1 goal is to get rid of Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chairman so they can crash the dollar and sharply decrease interest rates, which would send asset prices and the stock market skyrocketing simply because the dollar is worth less, meanwhile we'll get mass inflation again unless you are heavy owning assets. However, good luck seeing the inflation when they've politicized every U.S. agency to serve the Trump administration's whims, so they can just change how they do the math (tried and true trick). Doesn't that all sound like something if you don't think a lot of Putin you'd expect him to do?


The difference between Putin and the rest of foreign leaders Trump has dealt with the past 6 months is Putin unlike Zelenskyy, Rutte, Starmer, etc. hasn't gotten on his knee to Trump yet. Yeah, Putin's a warmongering liar, meanwhile the U.S. is quietly annexing the rest of the world because they're scared sh*tless otherwise, or at the very least making them even further our vassal states. And the masses continue on blissfully ignorant.
