Trump Says Making Ukraine a NATO Member an ‘Unhinged’ Idea, Biden Risking Nuclear War Over ‘Bribes’
Mediaite, Jul 20, 2023

 Former president Donald Trump accused his successor of dragging the U.S. into a potentially nuclear conflict by even considering allowing Ukraine into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in a video released on Thursday.

“We have a corrupt compromise president, Crooked Joe Biden, who is dragging us into World War III,” asserted Trump before arguing that Biden is doing so “on behalf of a nation [Ukraine] that paid his family millions and millions of dollars in obvious bribes.”

He continued:

Quote
All you have to do is take a look at how much China, how much Ukraine have paid the Biden family. It’s a total disgrace and a very dangerous one. Under these circumstances, the notion that we would even consider admitting Ukraine into NATO at this time is completely unhinged. Joe Biden can’t even walk up a flight of stairs on Air Force One and he can’t put two sentences together. The last thing that this incompetent administration should be doing is risking war with a nuclear armed Russia or China or other countries.

If Trump had brought Ukraine into NATO when he was in office, there would be peace right now.

It's always nice when Trump drops the mask and reveals what he really thinks.  Rather than being just "neutral", he pretty clearly is anti-Ukraine, and deeply resents it because he thinks Ukraine gave massive money to Biden.

Maybe Zelensky should have told Trump that he is a really swell dude Trump would be on Ukraines side.

So, someone who doesn't want WWIII is anti-Ukraine. That's a mighty peculiar worldview you've got behind your mask.

Do you think that countries like Poland or Finland are going to welcome Russia as an ally?


Do you ever think at all?

Yes, on this Trump is absolutely right!
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

And any other NATO partners who, as former Warsaw Pact vassal states, chafed under the Russian jackboot for decades.

@ScottinVA
@Kamaji


and Trump (and his supporters need to understand that)


There is a reason why Poland and the former Warsaw Pact vassal states joined NATO! They Don't Trust Russia!
There is a reason why Finland joined NATO! They Don't Trust Russia!
There is a reason why the Baltic countries like Lithuania joined NATO! They Don't Trust Russia!
There is a reason why Sweden WANTS to join NATO! Guess why

So for Trump to come up with this idiotic suggestion is going to do is meet with fierce opposition from our true allies! Also, all this is going to do itkeep up the Trump is a Putin Stooge argument keep on going with crap like this.

NATO is a defensive alliance committed to peace in Europe.  The last thing it wants is members who habitually pick fights and bully their neighbors.

Russia invaded Georgia, invaded Ukraine, and is actively destabilizing Moldovo.  Not to mention various threats they've made to various members of NATO.

Admitting a belligerent nation like Russia into NATO is just a typically ignorant Trumpian idea.  Whatever window existed for that closed decades ago when Russia showed it hasn't changed.

Arming and assisting a non-member in its isolated military conflict fundamentally changes NATO from a defense of member states organization to an offensive one.

I remember a time when Conservatives viewed Russia as truly as an enemy country.

NATO is just helping Ukraine ( the country Trump and MAGA Nate's) from being occupied by Russia ( the country Trump and MAGA love ). Nothing wrong with it.

Could have fooled me

If you encounter a contradiction, check your premises.  You will find that one of them is  wrong.

There's nothing right with it.

NATO exists to defend its member countries. It does this by providing a security guarantee that an attack on one of them is an attack on all of them.

Ukraine is not a NATO member and it is not covered by the security guarantee in the Alliance’s treaty.

Yet, NATO has helped Ukraine's armed forces, including with equipment and financial support, to fight their individual conflict with Russia.

In so doing, NATO has transformed itself from a defensive umbrella for member states to an offensive alliance open at whim to any state.

NATO has outlived its mission.
