Europe has been planning for this for a while now. It’s going to suck but once it’s clear the midterms are compromised, Trump can and will throw Ukraine fully under the bus, no more pretense.
It adds up to me…it’s why Putin hasn’t given up (he knows his opportunity is coming), why Trump is not acting like the midterms matter at all, why Europe has been moving to a war footing (Russia has no momentum, so there’s obviously an inflection point coming).
Is it really that hard to believe? I’ve been sure of this for well over a year (midterms being ignored/illegitimate, MAGA taking full power afterward). I really, really hope I’m wrong and will admit my ignorance if I am, but I just don’t see any other logical outcome that doesn’t involve something like a friendly coup or other black swan event
Trump admin is threatening to withdraw support to Ukraine if they continue strikes on oil industry.
