The Daily Trump

A military expert on Sky news yesterday outlined that the size of the European forces if all mobilised would be at least 1.5 times that or more of what Russia has, likely more given the losses Russia has incurred.

He also outlined that Europe is much wealthier if it chose to spend on military and defence.

As for nuclear weapons, it's pretty irrelevant how many Russia has (if working). If we get to that point, the world is done.

 

Just going on what the BBC said last night and the fact that countries like Italy Germany and poland have said they wouldn't be sending troops to Ukraine. I think our army is small been underfunded for years there was personal even as far back as Iraq and Afghanistan been reported to not have correct equipment.

 

I think if push came to shove, European countries would step up for their own security. Though you are right, the conservatives butchered defence spending over the last 14 years.

There is also some truth that until a country actually starts fighting, it doesn't know how strong it is. Russia had allsorts of equipment fails and resorted back to their meat grind and bomb to dust strategy... Which as long as you don't care that your (or others) people are dieing in the thousands, can gain ground.

 

Wild idea that, never take off

NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as “20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.
So much for the support British troops gave in Iraq and Afghanistan.

 

Wonder if we can ask for a thank you from him for the support

 

Spare a thought for JD Vance who appears to have early stages of dementia to forget we've been involved in a few wars in the past 30-40 years.

 

Let's not forget the other stuff he's doing.

25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, 20% on China. Dollar falling, Dow Jones dropping.

Then to kick off his Tuesday he's posted a deeply disturbing authoritarian message on his own media platform, threatening any student who protests with deportation, expulsion, arrest and their school, college or university to have its funds frozen.

 

He’s back tracked on his words saying that he was talking about other countries. The only 2 countries to say they would help with the peace process are UK and France.

If it wasn’t so scary it would be funny as fc uk. The Americans are no longer allied with the rest of the west.

 

The Americans are no longer allied to reality, reason or anything I'd consider a Western value. Many of us said it would be far worse second time round and it's proving even worse than that!
