[naomi24]

What will it mean if he doesn't get it?

 

I can't post a link but it's claimed to be blackmail.  The report is in the Guardian.

No.  I support him in what I think is worthy of support - and criticise that which I deem unworthy.

That may explain his curate's egg shape.

As i said on another post yesterday, according to Reuters, Trump has threatened to turn off Starlink if the Ukraine does not sign the deal/extortion paper.

The Ukrainians rely on Starlink (created by Musk's mob) to operate their drones - a vital part of their weaponry.

Musk has stated on X that the story is false but reuters stand by their reporting.

Krasnov has played the long game and the Americans have lost.

In addition to the end of military aid, which was always a given, there is now also a threat to cut Ukraine's starlink Internet access, which will hinder their war effort.

It really wouldn't surprise me if they start providing arms to Russia at some point.

on balance do you think it would have been better for the world if kamala harris had been elected president instead of Krasnov? 

question not just for naomi... for anyone who likewise still feels a degree of support for mr trump. does the fact that he's anti woke and anti immigration please you enough to make up for everything else?

What will it mean if he doesn't get it?

it is a demand - not a thing or a cost or an expense.....

untitled, your question is unconnected to this topic and would be better placed in a separate thread.

Not odd, untitled.  It's a good question that will get the response it warrants elsewhere without detracting from this topic.
