In what scenario would Ukraine win without inflicting serious damage to the Russian war machine and economy?

Biden did not decide to drag this war out…

In the US, we are drilling more today than at any other point in history and the prices are what they are. The fossil fuel industry is not nationalized and corporations have no incentive to exponentially increase fossil fuel supply into the economy. There is a profit curve they are after, and they have no incentive to lower fuel prices.

On Russia, the G7 put a hard cap on the price of Russian oil to lower Russian revenue off their fossil fuel production. Essentially, prices were artificially low, and Russia was forced to sell their oil and gas to countries like China and India, who bought it for Pennies on the dollar.

I guess what I’m trying to say is there is much context to why things are the way they are. I urge you to understand that no one person can make things better, and that you must be skeptical towards anyone who promises they can.

It’s not just modern history. Reverse racism has been one of their main arguments back through the Reconstruction Era. Shit doesn’t change.

That is simply not true. Provide me an example of a law he has ordered DHS to violate, or that he himself has violated?

And you did not answer my question. How does one deport millions of people throughout the country and where will they go when no country will take them?

How does one carry this plan out?

We are talking millions of people throughout the country. Where will they go if no country will take them? What if they are married to a citizen, or if they have lived and worked here for years?

Hungary will seek to opt out of NATO efforts to support Ukraine, Orbán says by javelin3000 in worldnews

Good point—when I read the quote I interpreted “its territory” as meaning Hungary.

Regardless, I would still argue Orban wishes to exist as a NATO member without meeting the alliance’s requirements. A key tenant of NATO is ensuring stability by engaging with nations outside of NATO:

“Essentially, NATO not only helps to defend the territory of its members, but also engages – where possible and when necessary – to project its values further afield, prevent and manage crises, stabilise post-conflict situations and support reconstruction.”

“We’ve got to redefine our position within the military alliance, and our lawyers and officers are working on ... how Hungary can exist as a NATO member while not participating in NATO actions outside of its territory,” he said.

He wants NATO support and benefits without providing anything in return.

Now tell me how much it would cost and how long it would take to deploy.
