Not looking good for Putin. Most everything is going the wrong way for his plans

[captain queeg]

Ukrainians are kicking ass, NATO is getting stronger. Ukraine is getting some of the worlds best equipment and a lot of Russian equipment is being seen as over rated (the Paladin howitzers are arriving now and will make a big difference). He thought he was going to increase Russia’s status and is having the opposite effect. His judgement since the beginning has been flawed. That’s scary, who knows what irrational choices he’ll make next. I hope he will be deposed soon. He might still have a lot of support from the citizens but I think the higher ups can see where things are going and hopefully will take action before it’s too late.

1. Pootie never expected...

NATO countries to come to Ukraine's aid the way they have. He thought his sock puppet Trump had weakened NATO to the point where they'd let him roll right on through Ukraine.

Then along came Joe Biden, spoiling all his plans and undoing all the harm Trump had done.

Now Pootie has a sad and the Ukrainian army is kicking his Russian ass back into Russia. He doesn't know when to cut his losses and return to Russia claiming victory.

2. Make no mistake,

Putin invaded Ukraine to weaken president Biden. At the very onset of Putin's invasion Trump ran to a microphone and declared that Putin had made a brilliant move. When Russia conquered Ukraine in 3 days I guarantee that Trump would be pushing the narrative that Russia never invaded Ukraine while he was president.

Putin and Trump severely underestimated president Biden. It was president Biden who kept NATO and our allies united. It was president Biden who led the way to stop Putin. NATO got stronger because of president Biden's leadership.

Our MSM should be writing about how president Biden was instrumental in stifling Putin were it not right wing.

If Putin had been successful it would have sent a message to other democracies and sent a message to other autocracies. Because of Putin's failures in Ukraine Macron beat back Putin puppet Marie Le Pen.

President Biden does not get the credit he deserves.

7. True but it's not over yet, not least in the US, where the biggest battle

Lies ahead in Nov and in 2024. The Republican fever hasn't broken, and only being beaten soundly at the ballot box can provide an answer.

3. He must be stopped

Evil killer!

4. Are those Paladins from the US?

I knew that Ukraine had been asking for them, but didn't see that the US had agreed to send any.

[captain queeg]

8. Not 100% sure now that you ask, may have come from NATO members

I’ve seen footage of the free standing howitzers being loaded onto planes to be airlifted. I doubt the Paladins would fit.

9. I don't believe Ukraine has received any Paladins

Ukraine has received M777 howitzers, which have a maximum range of 13-19 miles depending on the type of ammunition used. The howitzer weights 9,300 pounds and can be setup or taken down in six minutes by a skilled crew.

The 2A65 that the Russian's use weigh 13,000 pounds, and have a maximum range of 16 miles.

if Ukraine was given any M795E1 ammunition (the stuff with 19 mile range), the Russians could have a major headache on their hands. If I were a Russian soldier, I would fear the thought of the Ukrainians being able to park 17 or 18 miles away, setup, lob a couple dozen shells, and then retreat within the span of a 20 minute window.

Of course, if the Ukrainians had Paladins, they could do that in half the time.

5. Ukrainians need to keep their eyes on the prize . ....

final freedom from killer Russia, Putin and their allies. I would like to see Belarus go down, restore the legal winner of the election and bring Democracy to its shore.

Ukrainians are quite handy when it comes to restoring damaged weaponry such as tanks, etc. and using them against their former owner and creators.

Also, other countries have offered and are helping in restoring the damaged tanks, etc. Countries around the world helping Ukraine.

Maybe we have learned a little from history.

6. Somewhere it said яussia was repairing damaged weaponry by using parts for appliances? 🤔
