So whats the plan? How can this end?
He can wait to see if Trump becomes president, because we all know how it will end with his BFF in charge.
Any Republican, really. Just listen to Fox or the Republicans in Congress.
This is the long game, because if Trump wins, he can get the US out of NATO and that's a constitutional crisis at home, and a serious flashpoint to drive Europe back into squabbling.
Not with this supreme court.
America is far from the only country providing support to Ukraine.
True, but if America decides to provide support to Russia, the rest of NATO will stand down.
There's a vast difference between America ceasing to support Ukraine and America supporting Russia. Simply never going to happen, that's a loonie scenario.
NATO is not officially supporting Ukraine. It just so happens that all the various NATO member countries are all individually deciding that it's in their interests to support Ukraine. If America drops out that's not going to change whether it's in the interests of those countries to continue supporting Ukraine. Indeed, it becomes all the more important for many of them to make sure Russia's strength is broken if they don't feel they can rely on America to support them.
You must know by now that Russiagate was a hoax?
Doesn't matter. Trump wants Russia to win.
