MTG: Let Putin Win, the US should pull out of NATO

Post by MotorCityRadioFreak » Sun Jul 03, 2022 3:13 am

Marjorie Taylor Greene has lost her last marble. She believes that the U.S. should stop assisting Ukraine and pull out of NATO. Absolutely mind boggling.

How about we take a page from Michael J. Fox and invade Canada and annex it? We can make a deal. The new Soviet Union gets Ukraine, and we get Canada. Trudeau is a racist white supremacist who goes to parties in blackface anyway. You've seen the pictures.

It's not just NATO, it's the friggin' U.N. that's the problem here.

Why haven't THEY been more vocal about the Russian invasion?? Is there ANYBODY who can realistically justify the reasoning why the Russians crossed the border into a sovereign nation?? If they DID have a valid reason, they SHOULD have sought the "blessings" of the U.N. before they crossed the border. And by "blessings", that would basically mean a world-wide consensus that it was necessary because negotiations through the U.N. (of which both parties are member nations) have failed.

The whole purpose of the U.N. was to AVOID war at all costs. Russia should be KICKED OUT of the U.N., as should anybody who is supporting their actions. Why OUR "leadership" isn't insistent on this is beyond me.

The concept of a UN type organization is spectacular in theory. Unfortunately the current incarnation is not very effective at all.

That's true, but they never will unless/until some of the important member nations hold them accountable for the reason they were created. Where is OUR leadership on this issue??

Some people here are unable to understand and appreciate sarcasm.

What Marjorie Taylor Greene said is just like the half thought out statements made daily by Democrat politicians, and the alphabet Network News says nothing. MCRF, if the Communists ever march in, certainly you will not be a leader in the new order government. You are what Stalin and Lenin called a "useful idiot".

Seriously, when business and government leaders appeased Germany before World War II, and let them take whole countries over, Germany had an insane leader, but not the ability to destroy a large part of the world. Russia does have that capability, so MTG basically stated that appeasement might be a reasonable "kick the can down the road" move to avoid world destruction in the short run. Why is it that the largest nuclear arsenals in the world are controlled by senile old men apparently ready to let the world be destroyed?

You do know that if Trump or Reagan were President, Putin would never have invaded Ukraine. The world perception of them as being unstable and ready to stop them actually helped to avoid these types of situations. Schoolyard bullies don't attack if there is someone there who has the ability to inflict great harm on them, and is willing to do it. It's called deterrence.

You say potato, I say potato.

Let's call socialism/communism off. A prickly rose by any other name.

Ever hear of rapeseed oil? They just changed the name to canola oil because rapeseed sounded offensive.

No, a Democratic socialist is akin to Turkey Top or a Swede not a fucking Soviet or Chinese national.
