We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts.

US involvement with Ukraine is what is destroying Ukraine. John Mearsheimer predicted the US will get Ukraine wrecked in 2014 in a viral video that is on YouTube. The Russians don't care for Ukraine if they are neutral. The problem was a border dispute involving Crimea, and Sevastopol, which the Russians were diplomatic about. The hardliners don't care as long as they harm Russians. Russians warned Biden of NATO-fication of Ukraine and tried for a peace deal in the middle of the war. The hardliners don't want peace, they want war. Donald Trump has no interest in wars. He is a peacemonger. To him, the conflict is fair trade, not controlling the globe politically. Donald Trump's China policy is predicated on fair trade, while Joe Biden's China policy was based on national security, aka, US hegemony; suppressing rivals on the global stage.
The dispute being....Russia didn't want to abide by the treaty they signed giving assurances that they wouldn't invade Ukraine, based on very specific borders at the time of the signing, anymore. So they invaded. Unprompted.
Also, the Dipshit has already threatened war on several OF OUR OWN ALLIES already. So you can stop pretending he's antiwar, now. No one buys that lie.
Lmao typical conservative making shit up
The russians started a war to literally seize land, not to demilitarize Ukraine. And that after Ukraine giving up nukes and not being part of NATO or EU. Fuck russia, fuck donny the little russian rat and fuck people who still eat up his shit, trying to rationalize this god damn treachery and deceit the U.S. is pulling. I just hope all this shit comes down to bite at least some of the enabling asses.
exactly! Well, said!
