Former US president ripped Biden’s handling of Ukraine crisis, calling Russia’s Donbass move ‘genius’ Former US President Donald Trump has praised Russia’s Vladimir Putin for his strategy in eastern Ukraine, arguing that the Russian leader outmaneuvered Joe Biden by declaring the breakaway republics of Donetsk (DPR) and Lugansk (LPR) to be sovereign states. “I went in yesterday, and there was a television screen, and I said, ‘This is genius,’” Trump told radio host Buck Sexton in an interview on Tuesday. “Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine – of Ukraine – Putin declares it as independent.” He added sardonically, “Oh, that’s wonderful.” Trump was referring to Putin’s announcement on Monday that Russia would immediately recognize the sovereignty of the DPR and LPR, which declared their independence after a US-backed overthrow of Ukraine’s elected leadership in 2014. The Russian president followed that decision by getting parliamentary approval on Tuesday to send Russian forces into the Donbass as peacekeepers for the DPR and LPR. However, he later clarified that the authorization did not mean Russian troops would be deployed to the republics immediately.

There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re going to keep peace all right.” Biden on Tuesday announced economic sanctions against Moscow and deployments of US forces in the Baltic region in response to what he called “the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.” Trump argued that Russia is essentially grabbing territory without serious repercussions, which he said was due to Putin being a “savvy guy.” “Here’s a guy who’s very savvy, I know him very well...” Trump said. “Here’s a guy that says, ‘You know, I’m going declare a big portion of Ukraine independent.’ He used the word ‘independent.’ ‘And we’re going to go out, and we’re going to go in, and we’re going to help keep peace.’” You’ve got to say, that’s pretty savvy. And you know what the response was from Biden? There was no response. They didn’t have one for that. Now, it’s very sad. Asked by Sexton how the US strategy has gone off course on Ukraine, Trump said, “What went wrong was a rigged election, and what went wrong is a candidate that shouldn’t be there, and a man that has no concept of what he’s doing.”

There's a difference between praising someone and respecting them. Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" teaches that capabilities of enemies need to be respected. Failure to do so is a recipe for defeat. I think Trump respects Putin, and it's one thing it seems few people, if any, in the US gov right now do.
Ukraine Warns "Radioactive Dust" Could Spread Over Europe As Fighting Rages At Chernobyl Nuclear Plant www.zerohedge.com/geopoli...rope-many-hundreds-killed Update(10:11amET): The potential is rising for greater fallout from the war across Europe, as intense fighting is being reported centered in the Chernobyl area. Ukrainian authorities are sounding the alarm over potentially disastrous scenarios which could ensue in areas of the Chernobyl containment zone, which includes an expansive region surrounding the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant where radioactive contamination is highest, since the April 1986 disaster. Russian troops are reportedly entering the area from Belarus, according to Interfax: Advisor to Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Anton Gerashchenko said that Russian troops from the territory of Belarus entered the zone of the Chornobyl nuclear power plant (NPP). Gerashchenko stressed that "if a nuclear waste storage facility is destroyed as a result of enemy artillery strikes, then radioactive dust can cover the territories of Ukraine, Belarus and the EU countries!" Ukraine's President Zelensky has also reportedly sounded the alarm over combat in the containment area: UKRAINE PRESIDENT SAYS RUSSIAN OCCUPATION FORCES ARE TRYING TO CAPTURE THE CHERNOBYL PLANT Godfrey Smith: Mike, I wouldn't worry. Prosperity is just around the corner. Don't the winds typically blow from west to east? That would make any radioactive dust hurt Russia much more than Europe.
The stuff blew over Western Europe after the Chernobyl disaster, causing some vegetables to grow much bigger but they were pronounced unsafe to eat. But that was an unusual case.

They do where I'm at, I'm not sure about Eastern Europe. I think when Chernobyl happened it was a problem for Scandinavia as I recall. Godfrey Smith: Mike, I wouldn't worry. Prosperity is just around the corner. Checking a map, Chernobyl is North by Northwest of Kyiv. It's no where near Donbass. If Russian troops are there, then it looks like they really are taking the whole country.

Godfrey Smith: Mike, I wouldn't worry. Prosperity is just around the corner. If they are taking control of Chernobyl, it is likely to ensure that the sarcophagus for the reactor gets finished as well as securing the area against possible terrorists who are there to gather material for a dirty bomb. That whole area, Pripyat included is a tire fire of radiation. That is not even counting the forest which if it catches fire as an act of sabotage, could release even more radioactive material. Russia would be well within its rights to secure those areas that are potentially dangerous to the health and wellbeing of Russia. There are bad things afoot. China is going to invade Taiwan very very soon. Our president, and our failed leadership are being exposed for what they are, and if Putin does walk all the way into Kiev, what of it? The only thing that will come out of it, is that the gravy train of money that goes to the Democratic Party here in this country will cease. Several prominent democrat families will have their kids sent home, and that gravy train for them will end. Russia is doing us all a favor and showing those 81 million deluded morons what they voted for was a mistake. Not one person who I know voted for this, has mentioned how great a job Brandon is doing.

Godfrey Smith: Mike, I wouldn't worry. Prosperity is just around the corner. Biden Warns Russia That If They Don't Stop He Will Deploy Deadly Trans Admiral WASHINGTON, D.C.—With Russia poised to tear through Eastern Europe with terrifying military power, Biden warned Putin that if he doesn't stop advancing his army, he will be forced to deploy his deadly trans admiral. "You think I'm joking, Vlad! I ain't messin' around here! You don't want me to use this!" said Biden to Putin in a Zoom call, motioning to a portrait of transgender admiral and Assistant HHS Secretary Admiral Rachel Levine. "This is the deadliest weapon the United States has ever produced, and I won't hesitate to use it on you! Watch out!" Diversity and inclusion experts speculate the firepower in just one trans admiral is capable of leveling 3 Russian cities to the ground using the incredible destructive power of intersectional identity politics. Foreign policy experts believe Russia is outmatched by America's stunning diversity and inclusion capabilities and will soon be forced to surrender. Sources say Ukrainian citizens will certainly sleep better tonight knowing the power of diversity is on their side. Godfrey Smith: Mike, I wouldn't worry. Prosperity is just around the corner.
